It was a few years ago and I was on my way home from a family get-together. It was late, and since my husband had shown up after work he had his own car. Our daughter as usual chose to ride with her dad. So there I was driving behind them on a country road near our home when I saw something out of the corner of my eye. I’m always on the look out for deer so of course that was my first thought and so I slowed the car down. Suddenly there...

See that tagline above. I wrote that long before I knew how appropriate it would be. It’s been a walk of faith since we moved to Texas nearly 2 years ago. Nothing seems to have come to us except through faith. Sometimes unwavering faith. Sometimes wavering. His lessons have not been lost on me and I see God’s hand in each and every one.

Others, like baking, well… just filling. I must say, my blogging life has been quite the rollercoaster and I have proven myself to be more than a tinsy bit inconsistent. Friends, some you may know, have been so steadfast in their postings that they’ve even managed...

Did you know that in Texas it can actually reach 77 degrees in January? Don’t worry this post will not be about weather. Well,  not solely about the weather.
