Happy Monday – and Happy Valentine’s Day! We had a “love”ly weekend…even though it did include some snow. It was only a dusting and the two days beforehand were hints…
I love services like that! I always feel so encouraged afterward. I love both of those verses! I’ve been reading in the gospels lately, in my chronological Bible, when Jesus preached the sermon on the Mount. I love all of those passages so much and I always glean something new from them. I’m a little jealous that you get to go to an orchard to pick apples! I would for sure come home and make some cinnamon baked apples. My grandmother used to make those with almost every meal- she would peel and slice them and mix in some of those cinnamon red hot candies (not too many) and we would eat it with our lunch. Yum! I doubt she added sugar- the candies were what would sweeten them a little. I’d also be tempted to make apple butter or even an apple pie or crumble. Keep us posted and have fun!
Those cinnamon apples sound wonderful. I love hot “stewed” type apples – my mom used to make them alot – but my family is not much of a fan. How can that be? Aren’t they basically pie filling in a bowl?? I have never tried to make apple butter (or any of the delicious butters) but would not mind trying at all. Hmm. Good idea my friend!
I’ve never been to an apple orchard, but it seems like the perfect Fall outing! I’m not a big fan of apples cooked, but I love apples and peanut butter as a good snack.
As for church, sometimes those teen takeovers can be so powerful! Having two boys in the ministry, I’m a bit partial to not looking down on the youth. My kids have taught me so much and I’ve seen the fruit of their walk with the Lord.
Have a great time picking apples!
It really was a “perfect fall outing”!! We had a great time. And what a blessing to have two boys in the ministry!! How your momma’s heart must soar:)
Hi Jennifer~ I don’t think there is anything quite as comforting to me as warm applesauce with a little cinnamon sprinkled on top, it just reminds me of fall. I went to a friends house last week and picked 2 five gallon buckets of apples, and I anxious to start working on applesauce and apple butter. Your teen takeover sounds very much like we do in our church. I love that the youth are getting involved in teaching the gospel. I believe that by the youth studying and preparing to teach, strengthens their faith and helps build a firm foundation in the gospel and in their love for God and His Son, Jesus Christ. I also love how it lifts me and helps me grow spiritually! Have a wonderful week! Hugs, Barb
Ten gallons of apples! Whoa buddy – and I thought we had quite a few with our medium bag full!!:)
