Infinite Wisdom and Infinite Love cannot mistake


This quote from Heaven Opened was a real encouragement to me today.

"The steps of a good man, and of a good woman too, are ordered by the Lord. Here is a rich consolation for you and me too. I sincerely believe that there is not one circumstance which has happened to us but was in that covenant ordered in all things and sure. Bless the Lord for so sweet an assurance of this blessed truth. Infinite wisdom and infinite love cannot mistake. Trials, losses, crosses - all, all were needful, and when we get home we shall plainly see how wisely they have been ordered. Let us, then, leave our concerns in the best possible hands. He will do all things well for us, and in us, and by us. We are His and He is ours. What need we fear?" - Mary Winslow

Our Daily Bread


I baked bread today. This isn't my normal baking day, but due to the heat Monday (my normal baking day) I waited till today. Now the weather is so gourgeous it is almost like a clear fall day. I am enjoying it while it last because by Monday it is suppose to be hot again... sigh. Anyway, here is the "new" recipe I tried today. It isn't new to me because I have made it numerous times when I was a mother's helper. This is the first time I made it at home. I remember that it never lasted long among Mrs. E-'s family of seven children, five of which were boys. Enjoy!


Bread or Rolls

Mix:
3 c.flour
2 T. yeast
2 t. salt

In large bowl combine:
2 c. boiling water
1/4 c. butter (1/2 c. for rolls)
3 T. honey (6 T. for rolls)

Let sit until it is about 120 degrees. Stir in flour mixture. Continue adding flour (up to 3 c.) until stiff enough to knead. Knead 10 minutes. Let rise till doubled. Punch down, shape, and let rise again. Bake at 350 for 14 minutes (rolls) or 30 minutes (bread).

New Book List



I am back, after a long break from blogging. Inspiration was lagging but I have been "reinspired" now.

Here recently I have been raiding our home library for books to read and have been abundantly blessed! So, as a result, I am adding a book list to my blog and hope to review each book as I finish it. I have also provided links to places that have these books in case you are interested. So far, they have all been wonderful reads. I would love to hear what everyone else has found especially inspiring recently.

Blog Moved Back!

I have been on www.homeschoolblogger for awhile now, but I could never figure out how to put my images on that blog. So I've moved back and hope to get back to writing a little more often. One of the reasons I bought a camera was for my blog and not being able to load my pictures to my blog was quite aggrivating. So look forward to pictures! Hope to write more later.
