On this last day of October, children in the US will be carrying bags filled with sweets. Thinking of them can remind us to ask: “What is filling the vessel of my life? Is it a bitter attitude that leads to foolish disputes and strife, or is it a sweet spirit that leads to righteousness, faith, love, and peace?”

I had some friends over for dinner last night. I’m not as good at entertaining people as my husband is. I’m much better at cooking and serving a meal while I listen to him entertaining and interacting with people (heh). But cooking for people is what I love to do, and even though he’s gone, he encourages me to still have people over.

This recipe intrigued me. I don’t normally use box cake mixes, but having a cheesecake with a box mix as a base really made me want to try to see how it turned out. It was very good!

I modified this recipe to be able to make it with what I had on hand. For instance, the original recipe called for fresh saffron and white rice; however, I don’t keep fresh saffron in my cupboard, but I had a package of saffron rice. I am posting the recipe as I made it, so that I can be confident that you’re getting a good recipe that I’ve tried out.

Surviving separation
This is part one in a series about surviving separation from your spouse…One of our ways of surviving this separation is to enjoy the typical, normal, standard day-to-day things together – like a good cup of coffee.

I have probably ten Bibles in my house. I don’t have to walk two miles to read one, and I wouldn’t have to walk barefoot for 25 miles to own one. But the question is: would I? Is my passion for God great enough that I would make those sacrifices just to receive His Word?
