Her Choice Of Words Offended Me...

Her mouth and her words offend me!

I so wanted to be this gal's friend if only on Instagram :o)

But her choice of words offended me...

Look, I am not as pure as the driven snow,

But I do have scruples and this gal crossed the line for me.

There is just something about seeing a photo of something beautiful

and having a cuss word in the one line.

You can have all the beauty in the world and still look like a pig

With a gold ring in one's nose.

You can look classy yet sound like a fool.

I do not say this to make you think I have never said a bad word;

But rather to say that when we write something that the whole world

can see, it now becomes the point of showing no discretion.

When I was a child if we said a bad word we got our mouth washed out with soap!

Now days they might consider that child abuse!

Well, I think adults need to wash their own mouths out with soap first!

We have two ears and two eyes and one mouth;

And some of the things that come out of a ladies mouth

Is nothing but disgraceful!!

She said _____  _____ _____!

So, now you can understand why I do not want to read about her amazing

Vacation or her view about anything.

Yes, I live in the real world, but I have chosen to not subject myself to pollute 

myself with foul language, no matter the lovely photos.

She may get her hair colored and cut

She may get her nails manicured

She may wear the newest fashions

But she truly needs her mouth washed out with soap!

She can use a lovely french milled soap

or she could use just the plain old

Ivory Bar Of Soap

Please realize that cuss words should not come out of a

Lady's mouth, even in writing or talking!

And that's all I have to say about this for today...

Staying On The Narrow Ancient Path...

Here is proof I did some long term food preparation!

I wonder if we could just realize how much of an impact our little jobs

we do on each and every given day will help us to enjoy our days.

Sometimes we get so busy we do not take in the smaller little gifts of a sweet smelling aroma!

Or we miss the things that really matter!

As I write this blog post this morning, there is a fire burning in the mountains.

They are being evacuated!

What trauma and fear are in their lives today!

But when we are not in the line of fire do we react with thanksgiving?

Can we expect everyone to agree with us and how we have been taught

to live our lives?

Do we think just because we are a Christian we are going to be liked?

Sometimes we must just look straight ahead and stay on the

narrow ancient path!

Beware of the new and improved church and culture!

We now see the world in the church rather than the church in the world!

When I was a child, I thought as a child;

But is my thinking grounded in truth!

Look, beware of practicing all these weird and off the wall extra biblical stuff dear ones,

Being A Woman Of Leisure And They Called Her Lazy, Because She Did Not Work (Outside The Home)...

 

Being a woman of leisure...

I really do just sit around and eat Bon Bon's all day!
My days are filled with nothing important...

I do not leave the house by 7:00 am
I usually awake when I open my eyes
(But it use to be when the baby cries)

I make myself a cup of tea!
Many mornings start out reading and studying that OLD BOOK!
No Wall Street Journal here to enlighten my old ways of thinking.

Boring and no GOOD MORNING AMERICA!

While still in my robe I find myself putting a load of
dirty clothes that were worn doing nothing.

I cleaned off the old boring round table
(The same style of King Arthurs Court Room)
Changed out the tablecloth that had splatters of bits and pieces and crumbs.
(From meals that have been the same ones I have used to feed my brood)

Yup, so far, been up for 1 hour and twenty minutes;
Only took off all the stuff from my 10 foot counter top
Washed and rearranged everything on it!
Writing this post so I could get it done before I need to go do
my weeks shopping for fresh veggies and fruits!
Because My Old Man will want a lunch to take to work with him
And Then there is DINNER
Gosh, all he does is work and sleep and eat!

I bet he wished he had my job!!

Washing and cooking and cleaning!!

Wait, what a shame while I was running around doing all these boring chores and my
Bon Bon's melted into a pool of icky gooey yuck!

Really do housewives really eat Bon Bon's?

Well, maybe some housewives might be lazy...


~Work While It Is Yet Day~

Make Time Daily To Refresh Your Heart and Mind...

 

I was very busy today as it is a Monday!

I try to get a few loads of laundry done and get my kitchen in shape.

 I wanted to take some pictures of my fall mantel and I never had time.

(This was the one from last year I think)

I did get a sewing craft finished and it is a very pretty tea cozy,

But it was one of those days where things did not go really smoothly.

But I have learned that it is in these times I get to practice 

~Perseverance~

Truly, when things are a bit off and everything seems to be a challenge;

We get to take a breath and just put our hand to the task!

If you have ever sewn then you would know about the little tool

called a seam ripper, and this is the little thing you use to rip out

just what you have just sewn together...

It is much easier to sew a seam than to have to rip it out!

(Trust Me)

These seem like days that feel like they are filled with trying things!

Hurricanes, floods, forest fires, and these political storms.

Why do we need to stop and just focus on our homes?

Well, if you do not do this you would become a neurotic person with a stress problem!

Look you cannot stop the chaos that is happening everywhere!

But you have been given the privilege to create a place of peace.

A refuge of calm and comfort!

And if you have created your home to be pleasant and lovely;

Then now you must take advantage of it!!

Stay at home a bit more often

Do not run to town or to the store daily.

Do not over schedule your days!

Keep yourself well stocked with pantry foods to make a few meals.

Buy supplies for a few crafts to make some gift items;

This will give you great pleasure!

Make yourself some tea in the afternoons!

I have found a nice cup of hot chocolate to be perfect lately.

Keep a few good books readily available to read a chapter while sitting

in your cozy corner or chair!

Keep a bible study on the kitchen counter so you can work on a few

questions each day or so!

I truly think we need to train ourselves to relax and take a breath!

If you have little ones rest while they are quiet or napping.

If you can make it just a few moments of rest of your mind and body.

If your children are grown, then you must still make time to

Refresh yourself and so then you can enjoy your afternoons.

I have found that it is better for me to decide what my evening meal

is going to be in the earlier part of the day.

When you are planning your days do not forget that

to do things that refresh your heart is just as important as all the

chores that must be done in any given day...

I took a picture with my phone!

How To Make Some Marvelous Mini Meatloaves...

I have been making these little mini meatloaves for a few years now!

These little gems of an old time dinner favorite,

or maybe you do not care for meatloaf.

But I am hoping you will try this delicious way to make

a new an improved mini meatloaf.

The advantage to this meatloaf is firstly the size,
Because it is so much smaller than the typical loaf pan size.
It will cook really fast!

You can also make a few different twists of flavors in each batch.
You can please each member of the family.
Italian, Mexican, BBQ

Items Needed

1 pound of your ground beef meat
1 package of Stove Top Stuffing
Any flavor you like, chicken, cornbread ect.
(Or you can use your own flavored bread crumbs)
1 cup of water added to the stuffing mix

Now mix all this together,
Grease a 12 cup muffin pan with your cooking spray

Press the meat mixture into your 12 cup muffin pan.
Make an indentation on top of each mini meatloaf
Now, this is where you add the goodies

You can add
 Tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese

Taco seasoning and salsa and Mexican style cheese

Garlic salt or powder and your favorite BBQ sauce and cheddar cheese.

See the ideas are endless...

I like to add some green chilis, another time some sauted onions.

Bake in a 350 degree oven, (preheat the oven)
They cook between 15- 20 minutes.
Cook until nicely brown and cheese is lightly browned.

These little meatloaves are great for a dinner party,
They freeze really well!
They make a delicious cold meatloaf sandwich
(We like our with some mayonnaise and ketchup on our french bread)

This is a great way to stretch your meat budget also.

These are a very tasty way to get a dinner on the table quickly!

Always cooking and trying new things can be a great way
to keep your menus filled with new and inspiring foods.

Look, even the old meatloaf has gotten a new makeover!

Have A Wonderful Day!
