Stop Kicking Yourself for “Wasting food” Instead Praise God for His Abundance!
We are pretty good at beating ourselves up as women. I once heard a pastor joke that his wife’s spiritual gift was guilt. Haha!

I believe the accomplished homemaker has a solid collection of go-to recipes for certain staple items such as a delicious casserole, bread, pie, and a chocolate chip cookie. Ideally she has them memorized. This is my goal at least, and some of them I do have memorized such as this cookie recipe. But it is so important to have a collection of at least the very basic recipes that you will make again and again. I have still been on the hunt for my perfect chocolate chip cookie recipe…

Country Morning Cinnamon Rolls
There is something about country living that calls for rich nourishing and comforting food. Maybe it’s the expansive views, the serenity of no traffic, or maybe it’s the fresh air that makes you let your hair down and relax. Out here we don’t count calories. We just savor every bite and praise Jesus for it. Cinnamon rolls are good for brunch or after dinner dessert. If you want the best cinnamon roll experience, eat it fresh and hot out of the oven. There’s just nothing like it. Dough: 2 heaping tblspn granulated sugar 1 cup warm milk 1 packet active dry yeast 3 cups all purpose flour 1 tsp salt…
