I've had a dream for almost 8 years of starting a ukulele band at our church. I know it's a little crazy. I get amused looks from friends when I talk about it. They weren't exactly knocking at our door to sign up...until NOW! You see there's always been one problem, I actually have no talent... Comment - Like

There was a touch of fall in the air today. The 100+ temperatures that we had a couple of weeks ago are thankfully gone. So I decided it was the perfect day to sit on the front porch and shell peas. I bought these purple hull peas at a little produce stand near our house. You don't see these... Comment - Like

There's an art to making vegetable soup. It's a slow and deliberate process. Mindfulness comes in handy when chopping with a sharp knife!!
Being a full steam ahead kind of gal, it's good for me to have to shift into low gear and remind myself of the joy of being slow.

When I was a little girl everybody at church always wore a rose on Mother's Day. A red rose meant your mother was living and a white rose showed she had passed away. I remember going outside with Mama to pick a little red rose off the bush. Mama would carefully pin the pretty red rose to my Su... Comment - Like

Scrambled pansies sounds like a new sidedish Rachael Ray may have cooked up, but these pansies weren't scrambled in a skillet on the stove! No, they were scrambled on my computer, in my head and with my hands. And why would I want to scramble pansies? Aren't pansies beautiful just the way God ... Comment - Like

Spring is my most favorite season of the year!!! I love the freshness and colors of life beginning. I love seeing the daffodils share their smiling faces once again after a year of waiting.

You know, when you're trying to garden organically...you're going to run into a few bugs! Here's a look at our vegetable and flower garden where the bugs are enjoying some of the plants as much as we are.

The painting is "Easter Morn" by Chinese artist He Qi.
It's been a lovely spring day! The dogwood blossoms are opening in Easter greeting to the warm sunshine. Daffodils are smiling all over town. The birds are gathering bits of grass and straw...singing their nesting songs. The warmth of... Comment - Like

Spring officially arrived yesterday! I've been working in the yard all week...happily coaxing my muscles back into gardening shape again. Daffodils have popped up all over our back yard but the first clump to bloom was down by the labyrinth. I picked a vase full and brought them inside to brig... Comment - Like

Watch what God does, and then you do it,
like children who learn proper behavior from their parents.
Mostly what God does is love you.
Keep company with him and learn a life of love.
Observe how Christ loved us.
His love was not cautious but extravagant.
He didn't love ... Comment - Like

Does Jesus have a favorite Christmas carol? Could it be "Silent Night?' Maybe "Away in a Manger?" Or how about "O, Holy Night?" These are all beautiful, but I don't think they are the best.

This is a true story. Well, more or less a true story. I first told it to our grandson, Wesley, when he was about 4. I called myself "Nana Banana" from the time Wesley was a baby because it always got me a big grin. He asked to hear it again last month after we had just finished Thank... Comment - Like
