Loving a Life of Biblical Womanhood
Gregg and I met through a writers’ group online. We knew each other for several years before we met in person. Though we had no romantic interest or intent in each other prior to our first in-person meeting, within a week we knew we would be married, within three months we were engaged, and we were married six months after our first meeting.
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.
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.
I made my Whole Wheat Pull Apart Yeast Rolls this morning for our Thanksgiving dinner. When I read through the recipe, I found two vary glaring errors that, if you didn’t know what to do, you wouldn’t know what to do about them. I don’t know what was going on with my brain or fingers when I typed it, unless it was just because during the Thanksgiving Extravaganza last year, I typed about 6 recipes in one day. Not a great excuse – but it’s all I have.

If you don’t know the actual history behind the pilgrims and Thanksgiving, I found this chart here. I copied it verbatim and added nothing to it, nor took anything away from it. It is WONDERFUL and is full of other links.
I cooked a big Thanksgiving Dinner for my family, and am excited to share it with you! Everything has its own separate and more detailed post, so I’ve linked each one within the post.

Last Monday, Gregg and I finished our 40-day Daniel Fast. For 40 days, we ate nothing but whole food fruits, vegetables, and some whole grains. To drink, we only had water.
We have good friends who come to our weekly small group in our home every Sunday night, and we had joked about missing chocolate and coffee more than anything.
This is a quick pasta sauce that every member of our family will love. The kale is a wonderful source of vitamins A, C, and K, as well as omega 3 and omega 6. You can use any kind of pasta you want when making this dish. It takes very little time to make, and using grass-fed beef and organic vegetables it’s still barely $3 per person.

Chili-Mac is one of my kids’ favorite dinners. I love how this is served over cornbread instead of sloppy-joe style over hamburger buns. This is a very-quick, easy to make meal – especially if you’re using leftover cornbread. I used grass-fed beef, and even with organic vegetables it’s still less than $4 per serving.
