The Rebelution
The Rebelution. My parents got me the book above, Do Hard Things, at the GHEA conference. This year they got me Start Here, the sequel, at the bookstore. But what IS The Rebelution? That’s easy! “…In 1 Timothy 4:12, the Apostle Paul tells Timothy, “Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the […]
Food Coloring Flowers
We have always dyed eggs for Easter. It’s fun to watch them turn all the pretty pastel colors. But my younger brother is allergic to eggs. And he’s older. And we wanted him to be able to join in the fun. And be safe. So my mom asked what we should dye instead. My older […]
Sunbutter® No-Bake Cafeteria Bars

Buttermilk Fried Chicken by Southern Living
I’m so glad eldest girl requested fried chicken. Otherwise I wouldn’t have tried this recipe from Southern Living’s February issue. It just calls for buttermilk, chicken, flour, salt and pepper. Sounds cheap and easy. It does take some pre-planning. But I did manage to remember to put the chicken in its buttermilk soak at 7 […]
Terrible to Terrific Tuesday
