What a wonderful post! Thank You for UPLIFTING my afternoon.... hey... what time should I show up for lasagna?!

I see a miracle in the hen that hatches from an egg in an artificial incubation machine and knows everything about how to be a mother without ever seeing one.

Virtual lasagna served at 6:54 PM. No photo provided, b/c you're dealing with a techno-idiot here. But, it smells wonderful, and there is just the right amount of crunchy brown-ness on the cheese and top layer of lasagna.

Here is a prayer I read from a couple of days ago!

Jesus, I need you! You are my Lord, my
God, my King. You are worthy of all of my worship. Help me, by your grace, to know you and love you so deeply and dearly that the things of this world fade away and grow strangely dim.

I want to worship you and you alone. I don’t want to be forged by the culture. I am in you; I want to be one with you. Bind my heart to yours, and place your truth deep within me. I not only want to know you and your Word, I want to have the desire to forsake sin and follow you and your Word. Enable me to worship you in spirit and in truth.

I need your power, your grace, and your love so that no matter what life brings my way, I can respond to each situation, each person, and each trial the way you would respond—all for your glory. I don’t want to respond merely outwardly, but rather from within, from the river of living water. I want to be so close to you, Jesus, that your Spirit flows forth from me in all I do and say. May I find all of my joy in you.

May I glorify you in all I say and do. (Psalm 42:1-2a; Galatians 2:20)

No matter where I am, what I am doing, what Scripture I am reading, or what song I am singing, I want my mind, my energies, and my heart focused on you and not on me and my circumstances. I want you and you alone.

No matter if I

succeed or fail,

win or lose,

am rich or poor,

am included or excluded,

am known or forgotten,

may I be content knowing that you are mine and I am yours.

May my chief aim be to love you and be loved by you, to please you and serve you. Help me to see my sin, mourn it, and forsake it, by your grace. Help me hunger and thirst after righteousness.

Lord Jesus, grant me your grace, your mercy, and your lovingkindness to enable me to see you, know you, love you, and be one with you. Thank you that your Word tells me if we ask anything in your name and according to your will that you will do it. Amen. (John 14:13-14)

Anyone read any of David Limbaugh's books? Thinking about getting his newest one “The True Jesus”.

I want some, too... especially after the description! My weakness is cooking. BUT, tomorrow night I'll be harvesting my home grown zucchini and fresh eggs to test out a zucchini fries recipe. I'm still torn between pan frying with olive oil or a healthy baked recipe. If anyone has an EASY recipe for zucchini fries or chips... PLEASE PASS ALONG!!!!

I LOVE to grill my zucchini. None of that here. We might get an inch of snow tonight.

I have about 8 leaves of spinach growing in my green house that I may harvest for a very small salad for hubby and me this weekend.

Dandelion greens should be harvestable in a week or two.

The closest I can get to fresh is this: I'm still enjoying my home made peach salsa on my eggs, and my home made raspberry jam on my English muffins every morning. If you all have not made jam with Pomona's pectin: I give it 5 stars. The gel stage is not at all dependent on sugar, the way traditional pectin works. Instead, Pomona's requires calcium to set the fruit, and they include plenty of calcium so you can add it as you make your jam. So... no need for your jam to be cloyingly sweet. Only as sweet as you like it! It really lets the flavor of the fruit shine through.
