To Try This Week

This is 'back to school week'.  Time to get back on a schedule, get a little more organized, move quicker and be more productive!!  All because we have to - which is a sure fire way to get it done! 

I've been in somewhat of a summer menu slump....you know, where you cook the same thing over and over, nothing sounds appealing and there is no desire to find anything new in food to explore.  

Well...Pinterest send me a weekly email and instead of passing it by, clicked on it.  Would you believe the wealth of inspiration!!  Somehow from hopping from Pinterest Board to Board, I found one with some great recipes to try.  

I've done this before, found recipes,  printed them off and then let them sit in a folder to try 'later'!  Since this is the week to get it together, I'm printing them and posting them for a little accountability!!  

Here are a few recipes I'm planning, going to try this week!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Chia Protein Pudding....to use up those chia seeds!

Teriyaki Chicken Casserole, since I love all things teriyaki!

Ham Fried Rice, since she shared the secret to making perfect fried rice!

I'll stop there to keep it manageable!  Will let you know how it turns out!!

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We...

Word Filled Wednesday – Act Justly

He has shown you, O man, what is good;       And what does the LORD require of you                But to do justly, To love mercy,       And to walk humbly with your God?    Micah 6:8 Sometimes we struggle so hard with the question “What does God want us to do and be?”  This verse is a simple yet powerful reminder of some simple things that God requires of us.  Act and do justly, love mercy and walk humbly before God.  There are numerous opportunities each day to do justly, to do the right thing or to make the right choice.  We love mercy when we show kindness or mercy oftentimes to those who do not deserve it.  Walking humbly before God is acknowledging He alone is God.  He is the I AM – no one else is.  When we give Him the glory He is worthy of, it will humble our heart before Him....
