The Simple Joys of Slow Living: Have you ever heard of Rabbit ‘Rithmetic?

There are so many simple joys that can be found when we embrace the concept of ‘slow living’ which we are trying our best to do around here.

This month has been full of adventures here at home and away. We just never know what to expect. Our area has been experiencing a severe drought so that made gardening a little more challenging this season. We have been so blessed to get a decent amount of rain lately and I don’t complain about it, even when it happens mid harvest!

CHRISTMAS IN JULY
Smoked, BBQ, or Roasted Turkey
Corn Casserole, Carrot Souffle
Smoked Salmon Dip, Stuffed Tomatoes – these can also be stuffed with chicken or tuna salad
Watermelon Trees & Strawberry Santas

Biblical Feasts: Feast of the Trumpets Menu & Activities

If you’ve been around here for a bit, then you probably know that we have been on a journey to learn more about the Biblical Feasts. Well, the Feast of the Trumpets is almost upon us, and I decided that being prepared makes it more likely that I can follow through with the intentions of celebrating this year.

We plan to try to incorporate some traditional dishes, and we plan to eat by candlelight whenever possible. Please note that I am not an expert, and most of these ideas are just ideas that I have, and I can not say that they are traditional or ‘allowed’ for a traditional Jewish celebration.

Wine or Grape Juice is normally served with meals as well, although we will probably opt for sparkling juice, apple cider, or juice.

You can change whatever recipes you need to make this work for you… you can even buy premade foods and make this work. The idea is to celebrate your BLESSINGS and show THANKFULNESS to GOD.
