The Simple Woman's Daybook . . .

 


FOR TODAY, May 24th, 2022

Outside my window ...
The sun is shining. It is going to be another warm and beautiful day!

I am thinking ...
Its really hard when the choices of others impact you in such a way as to take away from your happiness and peace. It is a journey learning how to cope with/understand/accept/live with their choices in such a way as you can get past them and find your joy again. Quite often it is two steps forward and one step back.

I am thankful for ...
Grace and forgiveness. Faith, family, friends.

In the kitchen ...
 


Today I am sharing what I think are the Ten Best British Comfort Food Classics.  There is a bit of something here for everyone!

I am reading ... 


 

Written on Our Hearts, Emily Belle Freeman 

In the midst of every challenge or adversity, one thing is certain—the Lord will deliver us, and the Old Testament can help us understand how. We may not be called upon to cross the Red Sea, be led into captivity, or be confronted by armies with strength far greater than ours. But there will be days when we face obstacles, danger, oppression, and injustice. And in those moments we can recall how to trust like Gideon, to build like Nehemiah, to plead like Hezekiah, and to stand up for what we know like Micah. We can draw strength from courageous prophets and prophetesses, from great women and mothers in Israel. And we can experience the sustaining power these biblical stories can have in our own battles of life as we remember that just as the Lord delivered the children of Israel, He has the power to deliver us.


Thoughtful and inspiring.   

I am looking forward to ...
The new season of Somebody Feed Phil. It starts tomorrow! I love visiting new countries through their food.

Dreaming about ... 

 

Dormer windows  . . . . 



 


Red geraniums  . . . 

 

A long hot soak  . . .

The early morning light in the  back yard  . . . 
 
A thought to carry with you  ...

*Change will not come if we wait
for some other person or some other time.
We are the ones we've been waiting for.
We are the change that we seek.
