I’m learning to say what I want in life. I’m learning that true, humble confidence is incredibly beautiful & attractive. I’m learning to step out of fear & embrace life, even if I fail. Jesus has been inviting me to eat at his Table everyday, in order that I would know more of myself &Continue reading “Grilled Apricots with Fresh Raspberries & Mascarpone Cheese with Salted Butter Cookies”

Women & the Table
Today was marked with vitamin D pouring out of the sky, little people squealing with delight with sprinkled water kissing their face, moo cows eating apples from a loving mother’s hand & kindred spirits…mama’s on this journey with me. It was beautiful! I celebrated my 32nd year of life on Tuesday with Ben & myContinue reading “Women & the Table”
Father Wounds Lay Deep (Part Four)

I am from the palo verde, honeysuckles & July sweat pouring down. I am from eating summer fruit saladContinue reading “Where I’m From”
Our June
Good Ole’ Margarita
I’ve been taking in as much of summer as I can & enjoying every minute of it. Life is full, my heart is being stretched to soak in the everyday simplicities of blessing & contentment. We had a little vacation at Lake Chelan & then time with Grandma & Grandpa. Time on the eastContinue reading “Good Ole’ Margarita”
Food as Gift
I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you. I cook. I cook breakfast, lunch & dinner nearly every day of the week. It’s something I enjoy…most days. I eat. I love to eat. I’m not a girl who shys away from getting seconds.Continue reading “Food as Gift”
