Whole Wheat Vanilla Wafers

Posted by Hallee on Mar 11, 2010 in Blog Stuff

I found this recipe on Heavenly Homemaker’s site. The only thing that I do differently is to use vanilla beans instead of vanilla extract. We have grown to love this recipe! Gregg has always loved a snack of vanilla wafers and peanut butter. I love that I found such a healthy recipe. I send a batch or two with every care package to Gregg, and use them when I make Banana Pudding and Mascarpone Cheesecake with Almond Crust.

Blog Stuff and a Button!

Posted by Hallee on Mar 8, 2010 in Blog Stuff

I couldn’t figure out where to even begin to create a button I wanted, so Gregg made several and emailed them to me. One really stood out, but needed a little more sprucing up. Between the two of us, we finally nailed it. I’m so pleased with the final result.

And the Winner Is…

Posted by Hallee on Mar 5, 2010 in Blog Stuff, Giveaways

I realize this isn’t as flashy as my past giveaways. My daughter is in Florida with her dad, so I have no lovely assistant in which to help me.

So, I got boring on you. I counted the comments, the twitters, the emails, the Google Friends, and assigned numbers to everyone based on order and time of emails, then used random.org to generate the answer.

There were 25 entries total. And the winner is:

March Giveaway: A Miss-Away

Posted by Hallee on Feb 27, 2010 in Blog Stuff, Christian Faith, Giveaways, missions

Welcome to March! As we enter into this month with a lion’s roar (and as I type this, a cold wind is blowing snow across my front lawn) and hopefully end it with a mew of a gentle lamb (mmm – Easter dinner), we’ll take some time during the changing of the seasons to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. There is, of course, more St. Patrick details coming in our near future, but for the purpose of the giveaway, let me quote to you from my St. Patrick’s Day future post:

We’re here for round seven as I play tour guide on a whirlwind trip through the Blissdom Blizzard folks who got snowed in and Bloghopped instead. I reacquainted myself with some great friends I already knew and hopefully made some new friends along the way. I’ll post about 10 tourspots a day in no particular order until we get through the list.
