“Have You Ever Had Sunny Spinach Pie?”

“Have You Ever Had Sunny Spinach Pie?”

This looked so cute; I had to try to make it. It actually ended up being quite easy, especially since I cheated and didn’t make my crust from scratch. (smile) The recipe includes cooked chopped spinach, mixed with ricotta and parmesan cheese.  The tricky part is how to make the actual “sunny” look. Hopefully the pictures will help you see how the steps were done.One key thing is to make sure you squeeze the water out of the chopped spinach…

“When Was The Last Time You Cleaned Your Net?”

“When Was The Last Time You Cleaned Your Net?”

I posted earlier about “casting our nets” and this whole concept regarding net casting has continually moved me to “plunge” into the deep of its meaning and its application to our everyday lives. I’m discovering that this study of net casting has several components that need be examined and one of them being the importance of net cleaning. This can be a tedious task but is crucial to do after every casting. Know that after any casting – we’re going to…

“Yum…It Does Taste Good”

“Yum…It Does Taste Good”

Well, once again a photo grabbed my attention. Believe it or not I came across a recipe called Pumpkin Biscotti. You heard it right….Pumpkin Biscotti. Now, I don’t know if I got some true Biscotti fans online but I was not a great fan simply because there were always so dry and hard (smile). However I know a lot of folks like to use them to dip in a cup of coffee or tea but I still thought they were…

“Power of the Human Touch”

“Power of the Human Touch”

There’s a prayer line I take part in every morning and this week we’ve been praying for our leaders being inspired by the story of Moses and the  battle against Amalek. (Exodus 17) As long as Moses held his hands up, the battle was being won, as soon as his hands came down they began to lose.  To this end, Aaron and Hur put a stone under Moses to sit down but here’s the personal lesson that hit me this…

“Let’s Have a Little Taste of the Homeland”

“Let’s Have a Little Taste of the Homeland”

African Chicken Peanut Stew The one thing I love about the winter season is my ability to make all kinds of soups and stews (even though I make them all the time) but there’s something about sitting down – snuggled on the couch, with a steamy hot bowl of soup, accompanied by a toasted slice of  French or Italian bread, (crackers if you must :-). This scenario just shouts comfort and warm fuzzy in my tummy. Well, as usual, a…

“It’s Time to Cast Your Nets”

“It’s Time to Cast Your Nets”

  I was listening to a familiar bible story this morning regarding Peter and the other fishermen that were wrapping up their nets because of an unsuccessful attempt to catch anything that evening. (Luke 5) There were two things that caught my attention and that was Peter’s verbal response in contrast to his behavior. His verbal response was a very powerful statement that demonstrated obedience to Jesus’ instruction, Peter stated – “Nevertheless at thy word” – yet his behavior demonstrated…
