I talk to my sister at least twice a day (if you ask our husbands, they’d probably say it’s more like 5 times a day)…but I think you get my point. Our conversations aren’t usually long…but they are frequent. “Whatcha doin?” “How’s it goin?” “Anything new?” (even if we just talked 3 hours ago) We […]

Hi friends! It’s been a minute since I’ve made a cooking video, so please pardon my bad angles (my video crew is in college)! With that said, if you are looking for an easy South Indian beef curry/ beef fry recipe, I’ve got one for you! Remember, if I can do this, you can too!!! […]

At the start of summer, I faced a trial. My heart was heavy, and I knew, THIS can only be overcome through prayer and fasting- so I did just that. I fasted, I prayed…and I saw a breakthrough! Woohoo!! Praise Jesus!  But while the praise was still on my lips (I was literally mid praise […]

“Get thee behind me Satan”  That probably wasn’t the caption you expected to read when you saw the picture of me and my sweet boys. Strangely enough, over the past few months, those 5 words (found in Matthew 16:23) have been ringing in my ears when I think of them. Keep reading and I’ll explain.  […]

We were celebrating my husband’s parents 50th wedding anniversary, when my oldest son asked the million dollar question. “So, over the past 50 years, what has been your favorite season of life?” Without hesitation, mom answered, “Right now!” Really? I was expecting to hear, “When the kids were small” or “When those adorable little grandkids […]

He initiated the conversation, and he was beyond transparent. Without my husband or I even asking, our friend told us everything…and it wasn’t pretty. My stomach was in knots.  As he went through the details, all I could think of is, how does someone get themselves into this kind of situation?  2 Samuel 11:1 came […]

My refrigerator has been having issues. The temperature is inconsistent and the water dispenser is glitchy. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. My husband has changed out the filter, called a repairman and Googled how to fix it- but no luck (first world problems, I know).  So…until we get the issue resolved (or get a new […]

I have the best team! I sincerely appreciate what every one of my coworkers brings to the table.  Our most recent hire came to us with no previous pharmacy experience, BUT he had energy and a desire to learn. So we brought him on!  Every day, he shows up, on time and ready to work.  […]

My son motioned goodbye to the guys from the gym. He managed to keep himself together…until the car door closed. That’s when he began to sob. He had fractured his leg and he was in excruciating pain- both physically and emotionally.  Just before heading to the ER, I called my sister. She began to pray […]

If you lost your sense of taste, what would you be willing to do to get it back? This past Thanksgiving, after a recent bout with Covid, my younger son found himself in that predicament. On the biggest feasting day of the year, he couldn’t taste.  Like most teenage boys, my son loves food…so this […]
