The weather in my neck of the woods:

New Recipe I tried or want to try soon:
sourdough starter
In the craft basket:
I'm going to try making the soap the West Ladies talked about on their The Art of Soapmaking DVD.
Looking forward to this week:

Tips and Tricks:
when making sourdough starter put a piece of foil under your jar...so when/if the starter over flows you will not have a huge mess on your counter!

No words needed (favorite photo or picture, yours or others you want to share):
Lesson learned the past few days:
This isn't new but I love being a homemaker!! I had started looking for a job working in the ER of a local hospital. I didn't really want to but we really could use some extra money. Each job I applied for the Lord shut the door. Well I was relying more on myself than the Lord! There is a possibility that my husband might be up for a manager at work. He will be making more than I would of if I was working as well.
On my mind:
The Lord's direction for our lives.

Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:

Hi!
I loved getting homemade cards from my son. He is 41 now and I still have the cards he made me as a child. Have a great day!
