Thought for the day:

Where can I go from your Spirit?
    Where can I flee from your presence?
If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
    if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
    if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there your hand will guide me,
    your right hand will hold me fast.

Psalm 139:7-10

  1. I started following your blog several years ago, but then, due to a lack of interest in cooking, I fell away for a few years. My cooking love is back, so I recently began visiting your blog again. As always, your recipes and photos provide great inspiration. But I am especially loving 2 things you are now doing---the little heart button so I can save my favorite recipes and the daily Scripture passage. Both those things have made an already-fantastic food blog even better.

    Blessings,
    Patti
