Fermentation
Fermentation can be one of those topics that scare people. I remember when I heard the word fermentation before I learned what it was I would immediately think of something that smelled sour and tasted bad. I was so wrong and the funny thing is I've been eating fermented foods that I love all of … Continue reading Fermentation
How To Homestead
What's the first thing you think of when you hear homesteading? If you're anything like me you think of a property on 40+ acres with a large family that makes their own clothes and eat from the land. To be completely honest this is my dream! Something that I've been learning lately is that, for … Continue reading How To Homestead
YOU
This sign at the archery club really stuck with me. The meaning behind it is so simple, “bring your children - they’re welcome! But please be aware of them as people are practicing.” Why am I still thinking about it? Maybe it’s how the YOU is in all caps. Or the red color making sure … Continue reading YOU
An Answered Prayer
Something happened at church this past Sunday that was such an obvious answered prayer it almost knocked me off of my feet. I didn't have to meditate on it, I didn't have to analyze the situation, it was clear as day.

A hurricane a few years ago washed away this portion of the beach and it was opened back up … Continue reading The Road Less Traveled

Today, I'm I'm finishing it. Here's what was written in the draft: "I think I … Continue reading Survival Mode Isn’t Enough
Family Meeting
Over the last year my husband and I have been on a new path together. When this pandemic hit, our eyes were opened to many issues that were right under our noses, which we didn't really see until all hell broke loose last March. Honestly, there's not much to say other than God gave us … Continue reading Family Meeting
Healing My Heart
This past Sunday Pierre and I went to church for the first time since the Pandemic hit and our church closed it's doors in April 2020. It was weird. Mainly because we went to a new church all together. We left our church of 4 years in June of 2020 after we tried to reconcile … Continue reading Healing My Heart
