EVERY LEGAL VOTE SHOULD COUNT

We are running behind in our decorating this

Christmas because we have been spending a

great deal of time in prayer for our nation.

Like others, we have noticed so many irregularities

and questionable things in the voting establishments 

of our country and we have joined thousands in

praying about the election results.  We are calling

for a revote on paper ballots in every state

where signatures need to be verified and

identification needs to be required.  We do

not believe in the integrity of Dominion

voting machines.  We believe every legal

vote should count and every illegal vote

should not!

Luke 12:2  "For there is nothing covered that will

not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known.

RESET AMERICA 2020!!!

OLDE ENGLISH TRIFLE

 

As you may know I haven't blogged much 

lately but I wanted to just start sharing a 

recipe here and there.  I have been participating

in intercessory prayer daily for America and 

the recent Presidential election.

Olde English Trifle made with English Devon Custard

In a glass bowl or compote layer the following:

  Split lady fingers turned sideways around the edge of the glass bowl or cubes of pound cake, fresh fruit of your choice or according to seasonal availability,  raspberry jam and Devon Custard (repeat layers again to the top)

At the top of the bowl, pile on the lovely whipping cream (cool whip could work too) – maybe some of the fruit on the top!

*2 cups whipping cream – whip in ¼ cup of powdered sugar till stiff

 If you don’t have access to Devon Custard – vanilla pudding made up or lemon pie filling will work!!!

A NEW SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM

 I recently joined the social media

platform known as MeWe.  If 

you are a Christian this might

be a place to visit.  

Christian Tea Time & Afternoon Tea

is for women who love the Lord

 and want to share their tea time

experiences, recipes, scriptures and

Christian music, etc.

Mewe is similar to Facebook but with

NO ads, no censoring and no collecting

your data. 

Think about it - you are invited to join!

FALL DECORATING

So we saw they have snow up north in

Iowa today.  We have temperatures here 

at about 42 degrees so after a long, hot

 summer that feels very cold.

I am sharing some fall decorating at our house.

So as part of our kitchen we have a

hearth room where we put some of our

 more formal antique pieces.

 Our home is very casual.  We are retired

and that is reflected in our home.

I am enjoying the fall transferware

pieces mixed in with some fall and

thanksgiving cookbooks.

We used our fireplace

last night and it felt wonderful.

Some were are saying it will be a colder

winter so we shall see if that is correct.

It isn't saying that here!

We are finishing up our last of the out of doors

projects this week and Thursday promises warmer

weather so that will be much appreciated!

A CELEBRATION OF AUTUMN for "Tea In The Garden"

 Welcome to my blog and glad you could visit

for another pausing time. 

 Let's have a cup of

tea in my garden.

It is very windy out so when the wind comes

up, I will be holding this vase.  I lost

2 vases this summer by having them out on 

windy days.

I love the older faded and soft quilts.

We are finishing up lots of things in

the garden and outside today.

I am sure you are doing the same.

It seems every project always takes longer

than we remember it taking the last

time we did it.  We must block it out of our

memory somehow.

We are having lovely cool days now. 

 It started to cool off the last couple of weeks

of August and then into September there was

a huge change.  You know that feeling of

shock that it could feel so cool after a 

hot summer.  Our furnace has come on

at night already.

My husband and I have stayed close to home 

with the dangers and concerns about Covid. 

 Our hospitals here in Columbia have

 17 patients with

 417 active cases in our county.

I hope you are well and staying safe.
