And my friend, Hope, gave this quick, nifty idea . . .

Two cans of biscuits

Mix syrup together and melt in saucepan then pour in bottom of tube pan.

1\2 cup butter, 1 Tbsp. light corn syrup, 1\2 cup brown sugar, 1 tsp cinn., and however many nuts ya like

Place biscuits on top.

Bake at  450 for about 10-15 min I think (can’t remember :) )

Anyway fast and easy and we love’m!!!!!

The other day we were on a walk and stopped by the neighbors say “Hi!” play a bit and use their bathroom . . . I was challenged by this poster in their bathroom . . . so I put it in mine too :)

DO HARD THINGS

things that are outside your comfort zone

things that go beyond what is expected or required

small hard thing that no one else sees, acknowledges or appreciates

big hard things like standing alone when everyone sees

sticking with things that don’t bring instant rewards

May Exercise for the Guys :)

Problems/perplexities Ever Around Christ Enough

“I will refresh the weary

and satisfy the faint.” – Jeremiah 31:25

God is faithful . . . he has and is . . .

This song keeps running through my head . . .  :)
