A Menu of Plants

Life is running along quite quickly.  It would have been tough week getting nutrition if I didn't have a prepped and stocked fridge.  Because I took the time to chop and store veggies and fruits for the week I was successful in eating healthy, nutritious food everyday. Breakfast looked like this every day: I would… Continue reading A Menu of Plants

Oneness is not just for Buddhists

I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.  I am also a student of all that is good.  I love to read and see how religions from around the world reflect my own faith in the Lord, Jesus Christ. Today I read the conference talk given in the April 2017… Continue reading Oneness is not just for Buddhists

Satisfaction Saturday

Satisfied With Tempered Glasslock Storage Containers

Last week on Satisfaction Saturday I told you all about how I love the reusable lids for canning jars.  With all prep I do in a week, I need containers that will keep the food fresh to the end of the week.  A few months ago I discovered tempered glasslock storage containers. I got my… Continue reading Satisfied With Tempered Glasslock Storage Containers

Family Friday

A Letter to My Daughters

I actually started this post long before my day started and my #2 daughter called, stressed with being a parent.  "It must be fate," I thought to myself. Dearest children... parenting is hard. Most people don't want to admit it - out loud.  What if someone thought you weren't being a good parent or didn't… Continue reading A Letter to My Daughters

Theatre Thursday

Audition Helps!

As a budding actor, auditions can be very nerve wracking and even downright scary or terrifying. It's okay to be nervous. Being stressed and fearful is natural and it's bound to happen to you. A little (or a lot) of apprehension is perfectly acceptable. But what is absolutely unacceptable is for you to be ill… Continue reading Audition Helps!

Warrior Wednesday

A Warrior Reserves Judgement

A Warrior develops kindness and reserves judgement. I can't remember how young I was when I first heard the phrase, "never judge a book by it's cover."  I do know that I have learned much truth regarding this phrase. No one likes to be judged or feel judged.  As I large person, I have felt… Continue reading A Warrior Reserves Judgement

Thought Tuesday

Reflection a Sunny Disposition

My friend Sheri and I had a chat about the symbolism and the healing powers flowers have on our souls.  We discussed how one particular flower, the sunflower, could be healing and inspiring for me.  I've been pondering that conversation for several days. Truthfully, although I love red roses, no flower can lift my spirits… Continue reading Reflection a Sunny Disposition

Fail to Plan, Plan to Fail

Food is no longer entertainment at my house... if you don't count the personal pizzas we made with the grand kids yesterday. Food is fuel.  That doesn't mean that we don't eat well.  We do!  Food is tasty in it's natural state.  I am enjoying food more than I have before. Today I have decided… Continue reading Fail to Plan, Plan to Fail

Scripture Sunday

Glory of Truth Enlightened

D&C 93:36 "The glory of God is intelligence, or, in other words, light and truth." I've heard this scripture for most of my life.  It is the motto of the university I attended and graduated from. Intelligence usually is coupled with gathering of information... learning... thinking.  God wants us to learn.  He wants us to… Continue reading Glory of Truth Enlightened

Satisfaction Saturday

Satisfaction Preserved

This is canning season.  Most years I am filling my canning jars with tomatoes, salsa, peaches, grape juice, and apple juice.  I have done a little canning, so far.  However, this year I am filling my jars with weekly food... salads in a jar, soups in a jar, and smoothies in a jar. Finding a… Continue reading Satisfaction Preserved
