With the change in the weather and the change in schedules from regular school to summer school, my body decided to cope by getting sick. So, tonight I made what I call "Sick Day Soup". Onions, garlic, and ginger are all good, anti-inflammatory immune-boosters -- perfect for fighting colds and sore throats. Since immune-boosters are… Continue reading Sick Day Chicken Noodle Soup
Someone To Share With
Once there was a little girl who was loved by her mom and dad. The three of them lived happily together, laughing and loving.

Saturday Song: Come Thou Fount
Come, thou Fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing thy grace; streams of mercy, never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise. Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above.

Storms
The clouds roll in so that even the sun hides. Night in the middle of the day. The wind blows. Trees bend. Some break. Some are uprooted. Some remain. Thunder crashes. We jump. Waiting for the sirens to sound. Then we will hide. But will we come out? Sometimes we hear it coming. Sometimes we… Continue reading Storms
