Amazing Little Breakfast

Good morning all. the sun is shining and breakfast is about 
to be served up in non other than a plain mason jar.
I am not sure if this is a new recipe out their but  it is
pretty new to me.
While visiting my brother , who is health conscious like me
told me about his breakfast called,  Overnight Oats. 
What an amazing little breakfast. I did like the Oat version
of this simple delight.  I am watching my carb intake so I did
find a new recipe using Raw Hemp seeds. Thanks to the 
"Keto Connect" couple,  Megha & Matt Gaedke I will do this
one next. Time to go shopping once again. 
Of course the store I need,  is about 45 minutes away. Tiny town disadvantages. But I can turn this into an excursion day with a friend and lunch to boot.
I would encourage you to check out this couple and the foods
they make.  https://www.ketoconnect.net/
So here is the finished Overnight Oatmeal. Next blog will be
the Raw Hemp Seed replacement over Oatmeal. Taste test of 
course will be done to see which I like better.

PussyWillow Plant?

Good Morning! Well here it is morning.  Spring as finally
made it's wave.  I am sure we all love winter, but now it's 
time for those blooming flowers and , plants and happy critters. 
Of course this NOT your typical plant. Maybe some Catnip
can be grown here.
kitty plant

Sebastian 


 Sebastian seems to like to dirt. Of course what tomcat
wouldn't.  He is always is open for love. Quite a verbal
kitty he is. Yes spring is here and the cats are happy to
baste in the sun more. 
Freedom outside is a cats best friend. Maybe a few flowers
might work as a bed. Of course if I wonder outside to try
and take a picture of that, Sebastian will move quickly to me
to get his love. One can wish for that camera with a great
zoom lens, This would not disturb him, Then on the other
hand if he hears me, well, I am spotted.  
Enjoy your days ahead. Pick lots of beautiful flowers and
enjoy what God has created. Be thankful for the little things
and our pets too , even if they pretend to be a plant.

Till the morrow. Many blessings

Not Rice at All

Quinoa this amazing tasting plant.  I do not know why I had not tried
this before. Couscous is the second runner up in this delightful dish.
This plant is a seed. And so not a grain, which i had thought.
When i first started using it I had been saying the name totally
wrong. the correct way to say it is Keen-wha'.
Seems this seed has been around for thousands of years. Why was
I not told? Oh yeah, maybe because i wasn't born yet LOL.
So now  I am adding this rich super food to my daily diet. It is
full of fiber and protein. So if your not use to having a lot of fiber
in your diet, may I suggest that you start out with small amounts
when eating this. Needless to say I found out my own way.
But now all good. I am very excited about this new ( well to me)
food.  This cute plant cooks up so light. And is tasty.
This one has mushrooms
One healthy shopping done

A great one to have around
I am not one
to  go into
great details
of such things
I figure if you
want all the info
on this seed you
can google it.
All I can do is
brag on how great
it is.










It just amazes me that it is not rice. It kinda even looks like rice to me  Trying
to explain to someone who does not now what this is was a brain thinker. Well
let me tell you what its not. Ha ha. I suggest going into a store if your buying
this for the first time, bring a photo and speak to someone who knows what
your talking about, even if your not sure yourself.
So I am into making my first meal. I added fresh mushrooms, onions, garlic
and Tofu. Threw in a side of tomato slices and wha-la done.


I hope that you try this Keen-wha . You will be so happy that you did. Thanks for 
always stopping by. Share a pic of your dish. Till the Morrow. Many blessings

Grain Free Peanut Butter & Apple Doggie Cakes

Who wants their family member ( dogs) to enjoy a scrum-delicious treat
that not only  looks great, but taste great as well?  Soy free, Gluten Free
Sugar Free, Dairy Free, Grain Free, and Corn Free.

Baking those cakes 

Drizzled Honey
























Making these turned out to be a treat. Happy
was the crew of my taste testers, ready on hand.
These took a bit longer to make. but our fur
babies are worth it. Of course when you have
a bigger dog they just woof them down without
even chewing, But you can give it to them in
smaller quantities, so maybe they will be able
to taste it  a bit more.

Cream Cheese and cinnamon topping, or a
peanut butter frosting. or a delightful top
of drizzled honey. And a plain topper is
always a choice if your traveling.

These are made daily. Fresh and no preservatives.
Always kept in the refrigerator or freezer.


3 Different Varieties of Cakes 

Peanut Butter Frosting

Cream Cheese & Cinnamon Topping

A lovely Treat
These are pawFect for those fur babies
that have allergies. They need special
love as well .

Till the morrow
Keep giving your pets a yummy treat.
They will be ever so happy you do.

Peanut Butter Sammichs

Well we did it again with this amazing yummy treat. Our taste testers
have given the approval of a very lick-able treat. It's always fun in
the kitchen baking and yes the crew always joins us while we bake.
of course they know they will get to taste those yummy treats.

Baby Girl luv's these
Living the Peach State always helps. We have plenty of peanuts in the 
fields, so we can  make peanut butter at home. A delicious roasted 
flavor that most dogs love and of course we people too.
Always choose a healthy treat for your four legged family members
because they deserve such yummy goodness. 
Our kitchen is full of love while we bake and that's the way it will always
be. From our kitchen to yours. Enjoy

Have a Paw-Fect Day

Picky PawPaws Gourmet Dog Food

I am delightfully working on my  new business.  We all want our fur
babies to have the best treats ever right? They deserve such yummy
treats just like their human parents. They will love the taste of a home
made treat , made with love right from the our kitchen to yours.


Just knowing that your pet has a  home made treat makes anyone feel loved. 
I know I would.  It's like when grandma is in the kitchen baking those chocolate chip
 cookies that you love. Our eyes get so big when she finally brings the plate over full 
of yummy bites. It's like that.  So hopefully you  join in my new venture in making
these treats. Give me your input. Likes and comments. I would really appreciate them.
Till the morrow, I'll be a happy baking

"Can" it be Love

Each we rise is a brand new day. And after that phrase
you say, derp ! yeah. We all know that. It is not anything
new. Oh ,yes it is. But do you really think about it? 
Each day has not been used. Each day we will arise to
another set of circumstances that will effect our lives.
A new set of smiles. A chance to start over and make 
things better than yesterday. And even in this new day,
each day, will we be able to make better choices. Will
our eyes be open to things we did not see yesterday?
Simplicity is straight forward. It sits right in front of
us. It is up to us, to make life smarter, not harder.
One of these simplicity's are children. They have
such a delightful mind. They do not over think things.
And when they pick the cute little flower and bring it
to you, just because. That is pure love.
The little things in life we need to recognize. Like when 
my grandson left this message for me. 

A simple message of cans. As a parent you can enjoy
the love that these cans were arranged in. Stop and look
at the message. The time he took in taking them all out
and arranging them into letters. Would you see the love 
in this? Or would see cans out of the shelf all on the
floor and now everything is unorganized? If you chose
the second option you totally missed  this message of
love. 
We need to open our eyes more to love. Love is everywhere.
Though the world would have us think otherwise. They
focus on hate and feed it. And then others open their mouths
and eat. Spitting hate and going back for seconds.
The phrase "stop and smell the roses" needs to be ever so
present in our lives. If we all would stop and take a deep
breath we can enjoy what is offered to us.
The Lord made this creation for us. The master painter.
Imagine what colors are out their. 
The "can do's" in our lives are much more important. 
We want love all the time. Like I said love comes in many
forms. It is up to us to look for them. To open our eyes.
Simple acts of kindness to others. Doing something for
someone without expecting anything in return. Free love
is always available in our hearts. Our children is one 
example of pure free love. God the Father has an abunance
of free love. Do we except that each day? 


We all the emoji's of life. They make us feel happy. 
We send to others in our conversations. There always
is an abundance of these. can you make a real one?
It always warms my heart to think that someone left
this just for me. of course I smiled. This was the senders
intentions. It's like getting a free back scratch.

If we but notice love more, we all will smile a bit 
more, which in turn will have the ripple effect. I love
finding things in my life that otherwise others might
dismiss so quickly. Like this pretty flower petals that
seemed to take shape from the bottom of the condensation
from my glass of water.
 God love is real. He wants us to feel it all of the time.

Let today really be a new day for you. Give love and
receive love, in all forms this life has to offer. In small
things we can accomplish big. And spread it through
all the universe.
Till the Morrow & Many blessings

The Make-Up "Case"

Today's lesson is all about that base. No, not Megan Trainor, though I do love, love her  cat wisps. Makeup, shmaykup. 
What is all the hoopla about it anyway? Well ,let me say 
its the most important thing like ever since the birth of 
color.  I came out of the womb demanding my makeup.
Have you had anyone tell you" today you cannot wear makeup"?  I have been told that on quite a few occasions.
And, I must say I really do give them a double take in
"how dare you ask me to to go naked" look. I have even argued with the Doctors on this evil question. I have to look
my best. What if, I was to like die on the table? I so could save
the mortuary dude a lot of time on my makeup job. 
There not gonna do it like I usually do. This sums up only my eyes so far.

I am not knocking anyone who wishes to take their own life
 into their own hands by not wearing any makeup, BUTT

Really, for women who love makeup, that above is

simply never an option. It's inconceivable. Might be
just me,  but yeah this is true. I love makeup so much
that even my Birthday was made like makeup, thanks 
to my wonderful sister in-law
My Cake

My Birthday Makeup Cake 


I am dedicated to makeup. It is up there with my daily
 duties of eating and the 3-SSS. Even so this ritual is 
not as consuming as it used to be, ( I say because
I am a pro at it by now) I cannot go out into the world
unless I am wearing my makeup. One reason especially 
is that I have a condition called Alopecia. This is a condition
that does not let your hair grow back, one of which is my eyebrows. I did use to have  eyebrow hair, but then life's challenges decided to attack my eyebrows. I am jelly of women who do have them and yet still add eyebrow pencil to theirs or
have them tattooed to  great looking eyebrows. But if you just want a certain shape then I understand. Each person can absolutely do in the makeup area what makes you happy. 

I am getting ready. I think that life might give me a grade
on my makeup job right! It might. I am really for those
who have natural beauty, but if you have seen what I look
like with no eyebrows, well lets just say I am from an alien nation. My skin is very fair. So even the lightest color
of foundation is dark.
I hear this line all the time. Thank you for that comment
but your wrong! Ahh yeah I do need makeup. Otherwise
I will have no face. So  the quote" wait till I put my face on" is very true. Dude really I have to put my face on.
There is no such thing as a makeup case, well unless it's a story then it's a case , but in this"case" it is not. It is 7 draws of
makeup. I still think I need a new draw set, but then I will have to fill them up.  I swear to myself, you don't need anymore.
Don't buy anymore. But then this happens
I know, your laughing because you know you do this 
too.  I have just found a few months back an awesome
lipstick called "True Mattee"  how brilliant. They have 
some pretty cool colors and they last quite a while.
Happy shopping on these babies and they are in a great
price range to boot. I happen to find these in Dollar General
The end of my blog is near so I shall mention just a few more things. One which is is dangerous. That movie called a Christmas Story where they say " you'll shoot your eye out"
lets add some  women to that picture and add mascara. When putting on mascara is a dilemma. Watch out or you will poke your eye out. It is the next to the last thing I put on before I head out the door. My makeup can be all done and then I poke myself in the eye. 
Great, now my makeup is messed up.  Because I have 
put on waterproof eyeliner and mascara. I can't just wipe 
it off. I have to use makeup remover ,which in turn will off balance my other makeup. Why is eyeliner and mascara water proof by not tear proof? Obviously  a women needs to make this happen . Anyway so when you poke yourself in the eye that freaking hurts, really and then you tear up which in turn now is this.
Now if I was going to go somewhere, that is not gonna happen anytime soon, because I will have to wash off this palate and start fresh. That's just how it is.  This makeup case has it ups and downs. Smudges and pokes. Tears, heat, allergies and much more. is it worth it? YES! It is what it is. My advice is to be who you want to be , with or without makeup.  Own yourself like a boss and walk that walk. Because your own approval is the only thing that is necessary. 
Till the Morrow, Many Blessings

Funny Biblical Talk

Have  you ever wondered why people talk so weird 
 in the scriptures or Bible?
 It must be quite strange to those who never indulge
 in one of life's many pleasures.  I must admit when 
I did get away from reading these words and then came
back to them, it was very hard to concentrate. 
The words were like this:
 I could read  whole paragraph or two and and I am
 pretty sure had this look on my facemost of the time. The 
"what the?" face cannot be avoided. I thought
to myself how can anybody read such jibber-jabber. 
It's like reading a foreign language in English. 
But how can that be? 
Like the saying " it is an acquired taste". One of 
which I am really enjoying now.  It does take some 
time to understand what you are reading. Most of the 
time, others can make it seem so horrible when it is
not. Yes it has those strange words like, thee, thou, 
witherthou goest, doeth,
What sayest thee on these matters?
Anything that is challenge is worth looking into. You
can really understand where i am coming from if you
open your own Bible. Of course their are so many
translations out there now a days one still has to check
to make sure what is being said is in accordance to what
was written in the first place.  Man has found out 
that this type of language is ..........

Cornfusing

That is why there are so many books. You can know 

them by their abbreviations,  such as

 KJV,       King James Version
 NKJV,   New King James Version
NIV       New International Version
TLB      The Living Bible
NLT      New Living Bible
TLV       Tree of Bible

Of course these are but a very few of the different 
versions of the Bible. These can be found at this link
 for further investigation on Wikipedia.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_English_Bible_translations

Have you ever noticed when others are reading the 
scriptures? I mean not literally reading right in front
of you ,but you notice they now too are speaking funny,
well in your opinion that is. This cartoon sums up
what I am talking about. 


I know you can feel where I am coming from on this


matter. But I would  like to challenge you to try an



understand. Taking baby steps is very much needed 
in
this matter. Study the paragraph's. Look up the words your having a problem with.My two to three paragraph's would take me 30 minutes,or more. What matters is that'you understand the time  era that is going on. I am sure if you plopped one of the people from the biblical day down here right now they would not understand what the  heck we are talking about. 
When we want to travel abroad, like Paris France, Russia, heck even in the good ole USA New Orleans , we study to language . They even have apps for our phone to  translate what we say into another language. And it will turn what they say into our own language. How cool is that!  The best thing to do is study
and take your time. Know that the people in the biblical era did not talk like we do now.  Make it a wonderful thing to do in your life. Ask for guidance in prayer that you will understand.
 I testify that the Lord lives and that he listens to you. That He will help you and speak to you through his words. It will be interesting and satisfying to know that you Get  what they are saying. And this talk will not sound so funny any more.

Till the morrow & Many Blessings

Sabbath Goodness

Sabbath, 
The Sabbath day is a special day. It is so cool that 
we get to have it every seven days. It's like being able to
celebrate Christmas, Easter & Thanksgiving all on one day.
You might be wondering "why". It is just another day. But
alas it really is not.  The Sabbath is the Lords day. God set
it apart from the beginning Literally the beginning.. He was
up in the heavens creating such a beautiful place for us to
enjoy. I am in awe at how many things are on planet earth.
God took this day and he himself rested. He needed a day 
of rest. What an amazing artist he is. Skillful, colorful, 
meticulous and engineering All things work together. All
things have a purpose.

Genesis Chapter 1 In the beginning God created the Heaven
and earth. This wonderful story in in the Old Testament. It 
only has 31 verses. You should read it. Ponder on how all
things were made. Gods creations are nothing short of being
magnificent. A miracle. 
As so this day was set apart to rest. God ordained it to be so.

Genesis 2: 2-3 
And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done,
and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which he had 
done. Then God Blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because
in it He rested from all His work which God created and made.

So you might be saying great I get to rest on the Sabbath. But what
kind things will we be resting from? These will be the daily tasks of
the week like our jobs is number one. The daily rituals that we do
all week long that are time consuming. We need a break just like
God.

Rest from out Labors
The Lord has instructed us to rest from our labors on this day.
I am sure this means the lawnmower will stand idle in the 
garage on the Sabbath. that the family business will have a
Closed sign on the door for a potential customer on Sunday
The cash register will not record one purchase on this special
His special day. A true day of rest.

The Sabbath is more than just a day of rest away from our labors. This
day belongs to the Lord. It is his day. So we shall honor it as such. 
We can spend out time in our homes that can make the real difference 
in feeling the Spirit and truly making the Sabbath a delight.
This day we can attend church services and renew our covenants
we made at baptism. We can help someone in need. Visit another
person to uplift them, bake some cookies for a neighbor.  This day
is devoted to the Lord and honoring him. Get closer to your family
whom you might have been able to do so much during the week. 
 In Hebrew, the word Sabbath means to  "rest". The purpose of the 
Sabbath dates back to the creation of the world, when after six days
of labor the Lord rested from the work creation.When  He later revealed
the Ten Commandments to Moses, God commanded that  that we 
"remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy". Later , the Sabbath was
observed as a reminder of the deliverance of Isreal from their bondage
in Egypt. Perhaps most important, the Sabbath was given as a perpetual
covenant, a constant reminder that the Lord may sanctify His people,

Exodus 20: 8-11 (KJV)
8    Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. 
9   Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work
10  But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God" in it thou shalt
not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor
thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates
11  For in the six days the lord made heaven and earth, the sea and all that
in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the 
Sabbath day and hallowed it.

The Sabbath is a renewal day. to start fresh for upcoming week. It truly
is so wonderful that  when we renew our covenants we made at baptism
by taking the sacrament on Sunday we are "like" getting baptized yet
again/ We are made clean by repenting each Sabbath, The Lord knows
we needed this. We are constantly learning to become better. I want to
thank the my Lord and Savior for having such a beautiful day.
May we all take a little time to honor the Sabbath, to keep it holy. Make
it truly His day. Make our hearts full of gratitude and love and share that
with our family and neighbors. God is love and that love is good.

Till the morrow, Many Blessings
