My longtime friend Kim recently made my family VERY happy when she passed along a quart jar of bubbly sourdough starter! Now I know why the forty-niners guarded their sourdough with their lives. For more about that be sure to check out the link.
Read no more if you are trying to avoid such scrumptious treats [...]

Complete Sourdough Starter with Fantastic Recipes!
Published by March 25th, 2009 in Uncategorized. 13 CommentsHello, me here! My mil came and got the girls and I’m going stir crazy walking around with every appendage swollen and oozing. Decided to share the joy with you all and document this lovely process with pictures!
What a mercy though, that this poisonous process held off pretty much long enough for me to enjoy [...]
I apologize for the dead air here on the blog last week…my only excuse? Too many other things vying for my attention–all good things, of course, excepting my daughter’s ear infection! (Please ignore the weird spacing of the pics in this post…I’ve been having such a hard time working with images on Wordpress lately! They [...]
A whole lot of mowing…
Actually, I’m referring to fabric in my title. One of these days, when I finish painting the house and refinishing old furniture (will I ever? hm…) I’ll finally get to sew curtains for the bedrooms in our house! Oldest daughter and I were able to go fabric shopping and sales afforded [...]
One night after supper the dryer buzzed as if on cue. Have you ever had one of those days? When every time you think relief is in sight, something necessary reminds you that the day is not yet done? Have you ever wondered if anyone cares or notices all the little things you’ve been doing to [...]
Is anyone else longing for Spring?
I’m so fickle! I love the cozy, house bound days of winter. Snow outside, me and mine inside. Good times. But yesterday as the temperature inched into the 60’s, a part of me flung itself open wide and got drunk on fresh air!
I actually lugged our TV/VCR out onto the [...]
Hey Everyone! Please pray for Jessica’s family, of the Farm Fresh blog. Her 3 year old daughter, Aviana, recently had an appendectomy and has been in the hospital since Monday recovering. She’s on morphine for the terrible pain.
Jessica’s other daughter, Brielle, is 1 year old and really not handling this time away from mom. Plus, [...]
I came across this eyebrow raising “Psalm” the other day, and thought it might provoke an interesting conversation!
My Shepherd
The TV is my Shepherd, I shall not want anything else.
It maketh me to lie down on the sofa. It leadeth me away from the Scripture.
It destroyeth my soul. It leadeth me in the paths of sex [...]
Each Wednesday a mom’s group meets at my church for fellowship and encouragement in marriage, parenting, and Christianity in general. Years ago, before homeschooling, you’d find me there each Wednesday.
A week ago, while helping cook ahead for camp, I sat in on their first meeting of the schoolyear. Michael Pearl’s dvd on “Teaching Responsibility” [...]
Three days ago I decided to quit coffee (really, for me, cappuccino). Quit it cold turkey, except for the tiny amounts contained in the green tea I’m using as its replacement. Perhaps one of these days it will taste good to me. I can hope. So far I’ve been dealing without it fairly well, though [...]
