The Best Chicken Soup EVER

I’ve never invented a recipe before but when my husband and son were out in the snow digging out my car, that I got stuck, and clearing trees from the roadway, I knew they needed a good meal for dinner. A warm meal. Then it came to me…Chicken soup. But I wanted a creamy one,…

Gratefulness Part Two

A Devotional Thanksgiving is behind us now and Christmas is being shoved down our thankful throats! Now it’s time to hunt down the loads of crap and thoughtful gifts that everyone will forget about within a few short weeks after receiving them. Tell me I’m wrong….I’ll wait. Because you CAN’T!!! Don’t get me wrong, I…
