Menu Plan Monday


Hello...
Christmas Dinner Left Overs...

Creativity is wonderful out there on all the nice Menu's.
Here are two that ways we used our left overs...
Yesterday Morning
Sausage (using the left over gravy and left over sausage from the stuffing
and home made biscuits (cream of tarter key to fluffiness).
Eggs and Orange juice.

Today for our late lunch we had
Potato/Corn Chowder

fine diced onion 3 tbl in hot e.v.o.l. olive oil until tinder.

Tofu (firm) in blinder with some chicken broth and frozen corn kernels.
puree until smooth yet fine chunky bits of corn are left.

Add that to a big soup pot.
Parsley flake and powder
Thyme would have been nice but I ran out of it...
go figure:)

so I used Herbs de France'
Then I added to it 3 cups of left over mashed potatoes.
one very finely diced carrot
celery salt
sea salt
dash cayenne

Unleavened salted crackers

We even had a play date today the children cleaned the bowel (all of them!)





I am due to make some home made tomato sauce for pasta this week..

Some home made bread.

Homemade yogurt (I will give it a first try).

Had every intention of doing it today , but...

I fell down hard on both knees.

The dogs bone was in the hall and I stepped on it the rug slipped and down hard I went.

The door bell was a ringin' and a good friend came in to see me humbly on the floor.

Daddy man was here as are the kids. I am alright but have my leg up resting.

Older women likewise teach the younger women...

• how to love their husbands
• how to love their children
• how to be self-controlled
• how to be pure
• how to be keepers at home
• how to be kind and submissive (not subservient) to their own husbands. (See Titus 2:3-5)

By Maya Angelou

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

  • A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
  • The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
  • Return with Honor
  • The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
  • "HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
  • “Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
  • "O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
  • "No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"

Zephaniah 3:17 NLT
"For the LORD your God has arrived to live among you. He is a mighty savior. He will rejoice over you with great gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will exult over you by singing a happy song."
