and took up residence among us,
and we saw His glory,
glory as of the one and only
from the Father, full of grace and truth.Â

WAY TOO MANY ADS OON THE WEBSITE. THSY ARE SO DISTRACTING.
Hi Leslie, I’m sorry the ads are a frustration to you, however the ads are the way we’re able to pay our employees as well as the expenses of running a website and expensive equipment. It’s also the way we can offer well tested recipe to our readers for free.
You've inspired me! Now, where do I look for those perfect little jars to pack my blood-orange marmalade in?
Thanks for your lovely ideas - you've put me in the spirit!
Thanks, John! Here's a link to the jars- https://weckjars.com/product/902-deco-jar/
