You Can’t Do Everything
I’d been tossing around the idea of quitting blogging for about three months now. I really started thinking about it as soon as it dawned on me just how much less free time I have during the day when I no longer conducted my marriage via long distance means. Since I feel very strongly that the Holy Spirit is who led me to starting the blog, I started praying about it.

Peachy Overnight French Toast
I made this to take to church for breakfast for my Sunday School class. It was really good, and required no syrup for serving. I made it the evening before, popped it into the oven 30 minutes before we had to leave for church, and was able to serve it still warm to my class. I did not take any pictures of the process and I apologize for that. But, the recipe was too good not to share.

Gregg’s Happy Birthday Red Velvet Cake Roll
I made this for Gregg’s birthday this year. He took it to work with him, and said it didn’t last six minutes before it was all gone. I know the filling tasted amazing – Gregg said the whole thing was absolutely wonderful.

Maia the Dog
Yesterday, we laid to rest the best dog on the planet.
A Christmas gift for Kaylee when she was 3-years-old, she has been a loving and faithful member of this family for almost exactly 11 years.
There will forever be a hole in our lives – a place where she fit perfectly.
Change of Plans & A Brief Time Out
Consequently, the blog is on timeout until Friday morning.
In the meantime, here is the first scene in chapter 1 of Emerald Heat. I’d love to know what you think about it.
Leftover Turkey Ideas
I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Do you have a lot of leftover turkey?
I did a quick scroll through my “turkey tag” and found some great turkey ideas for you.
Searching My Site
A friend of mine complained that she couldn’t ever find a recipe she was looking for on my site. I told her that the standard Wordpress search tool that you find on the right hand side of my blog pretty much sucks.
What This Is Not
Wordpress has had a few major security updates lately. Gregg has always handled everything on the site end of this blog, but one of the updates happened while he was traveling home from Afghanistan. During his most recent (and final) trip home, it took him four days of traveling before he was finally here – and most of those days he had no internet connection.
So, when Wordpress updated, it stripped my Stat Counter code.
