Food from the heart!
When my boys were growing up we didn’t eat a lot of cereal at our house. Some of their favorites included the cinnamon rolls, monkey bread, or muffins for breakfast. If we had leftovers, I would freeze them for later. Since I am home now, I am trying new recipes. I am keeping it simple all day, every day. So, it is back to the basics for me. I am making muffins and other recipes from scratch. I am praying that you are using this time to do something you love.

“Learn to sense what is vital and approve and prize what is excellent and real value.” Philippians 1:10
I have learned through all of this time at home that simple is better. We buy a lot of things we really don’t need which makes us work harder for more money. The most important things in life are put on the back burner such as time with family, baking our favorite desserts, trying new recipes, going to the farmer’s market, or watching a movie with my husband. Well, it is high time we simplify our lives.

Bake for 5 minutes at 425 degrees then keeping the muffins in the oven, reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees. Bake for an additional 18-20 minutes or until inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes in the muffin pans before removing.

From the heart!
On Sunday evenings, we would eat a quick supper before heading off to the Sunday night church service. Lunch was usually a pot roast with potatoes and carrots. She would cut up the roast and we would have sandwiches. On Sundays, mom would also fix a dessert. One of my favorites was the lemon icebox pie, especially in the Summer. Since I tried Key Lime pie, I am now hooked on the tart and sour flavors of cream cheese and lime mixed together. If you don’t have key lime juice, then no worries just use lime juice. Through this time at home due to the Covid-19, I am keeping it simple all day, every day. I pray that you are making memories with your family and making the best of the time that you have together because life is short.

“In the same sense, the tongue is a small part of the body, yet it boasts of great things.” James 3:5
James 3:5 shows us how something as simple as our words can cause some major problems. When we put ourselves down, it causes us to live with a negative mindset. Words can help us or hurt us. It is important to ask God to help us chose our words wisely. Blessings!
