Clove Tea

I have come to have a greater love of spices then every before . . . The Queen of Sheba must have been delighted with them as well because she have an abundance of them along with all the silver and gold as gifts for Kind Solomon.

Recently, a good friend of mine introduced me to Clove tea.  You boil some whole cloves are about a half an hour, then you take a mug and fill it half to three-fourths full with milk, some clove tea and a bit of sweetner . . . And there you have it!

 if the most comforting, savory, spice teas you could every have!

Tell me if you try it and like it.  Don't tell me if you try it and don't care for it 😁.

Taste Cranberry Joy for 2019!

 One of the first times I met Rosanna, she served this most deluctable cranberry bread/muffin/ cake!  It is the WHOLE families favorite way to enjoy cranberries!  . . . . So . . . I had to share it with you!

 These fresh, candied cranberries come in at second best.  My husband says they are tart, but he is very familiar and cozy with white sugar.  These are CRISPY, sweet and tart - all together! That's why it is a favorite of mine.

"Surely the Lord is In This place and I Knew It Not"

"Count it all joy" the preacher reminded us on Sunday . . . "Make a tally mark under the headline of JOY" . . . You don't have to jump up and down and shout for joy . . . but you are not to make marks in the pain\bitterness side . . . Look through God's eyes and see His point of view . . . back up and look at it from a distance.  Thank the Lord for what you CAN learn from it.  Seek Him and His glory . . . and you can count it all joy . . .

There is beauty in God's work . . . and He's at work in my life and yours E.V.E.R.Y. single day.  Day after day. he doesn't give up.  He's patient. 

Studying for this week's Sunday School lesson about blessings at Bethel, it is finally clicking.  "Surely the Lord is in this place and I knew it not."  God is in the hard things . . . Walk through them to get to the gate of heaven . . .
