Kitchen Blessings

Sanding and priming .
See my new stove?
This is what started the make-over:)

I had my drawer fronts refaced,
what a difference it made.

My sweet grandson!
I painted the island a completely
different color.

See my chicken's?
I love the wains coat we glued in the center
of each cabinet.

The brick board added the cozy
touch it needed.
See the red top rail?
 

See my antique oatmeal canister?

My long counter top.
Love the brick board.

My chandelier is my most favorite touch!

My heart has been so full of His love and grace!

 

This the most beautiful kitchen I

have ever had!

 

I feel blessed beyond

words!

 

Blessings, Roxy

 



Whistle While You Work

I really love to iron!

 

Ok, your all thinking this girl needs to get a life!!

 

I like to get all the tops and bottoms,

that I may be wearing soon.

Also, I iron my aprons!

I like them to be clean and fresh and (not wrinkled)

 

And I put up my ironing board in the kitchen,

it is usually up in my/spare room/

sewing room/ect.

 

But I do enjoy being in the heart of my home.

I can listen to worship music, or a teaching tape.

Also maybe get a post started:)

And to watch what I may have cooking on the stove.

 

My sister can- not believe that I love to iron.

I told her one day maybe,

it's the only thing I can control

wrinkles!

 

We must be diligent,

and focus on what is really important!

Our time with the Lord

Honoring and respecting our Husbands!

Making our houses a Home...

 

I am so blessed!

I love to be a part of this,

amazing community of Bloggers.

Honoring Others

 

Showing Honor

 

I was just thinking how fast the holidays

are approaching, and to realize that another

year has gone by.

 

This is a picture of a surprise lunch

Birthday party given to me

last November.

 

I was turning 55 years young.

So that means in a matter of weeks I will be turning 56.

 

So what I have been thinking about

all this last year was the kindness,

and love, and I honor that was

shown to me!

 

It still brings tears to my eyes,

and a lump in my throat.

 

I believe in showing honor to those God,

has given us :

Family, and friends,

mentors, and Pastors.

 

We can show honor in so many different ways.

As you bless others, you yourself

will be blessed.

 

Maybe we can start now asking the Lord

for ways that we can show honor to others.

This holiday season could be a time to

really let others know what they have

meant to you.

 

Be devoted to one another in brotherly love.

Honor one another above yourselves.

Romans 12:10

Maintain the Difference

 

Every Knee Shall Bow 

I will make a difference

between My people

and your people

Exodus 8:23

The Lord has put a division;

see to it that you keep up

the division in spirit, aim,

Character, endeavors

and company.

Pharaoh had a people,

and the Lord has a people.

I always want to speak my heart,

As a woman  that desires to please the

Lord.

I must in keeping with a good conscience

say that anything done

on hallows eve, that looks like even an alternative

to trick or treat, makes me wonder

if this is being just like the world??

Blessings, Roxy

Pressure Canning Chicken...

Fruits Of Our Labor

Here is a picture of some of the chicken we

Pressured canned.

It was so easy to do, it just takes a long time

to process.

The class we took at our extension office

was really profitable.

Also, to learn to not be intimidated by pressure canning:)

We are hoping to become well stocked with meats.

It is so convenient to just open a

Jar of chicken or beef and add to your,

Soups or stews.

I am so blessed to have learned the love

Of home keeping,

From my own Mother.

In all labor there is profit

Proverbs 14:23

Mondays

Monday

I have always found it to be wise to try and keep my Mondays

free from any added appt. and such.

Then it allows me time to get my home in order,

washing caught up. Some meals planned out,

and maybe something sweet for the week.

But, I also realize Mondays can be the very beginning

of many a women's busy work week.

And my thought is this:

You all are amazing!

What I have seen and heard from many women

is this:

There hearts our at HOME...

Just know this, that just because you have to work or want to work,

your still a keeper of the home.

Your loving touches and concerns for

each person, is what make a

House a HOME.

May you be blessed and just know that your family

will know where your heart is!

Blessings, Roxy
