Podcast Episode 17: 31 Days of Prayer for Estranged Family & Friends

Pip: Pollywog’s Place Blog is the kind of corner of the internet that hands you something genuinely useful and asks nothing dramatic in return.

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.

Creamy Whipped Icing

We make a lot of birthday cakes around here and sometimes people don’t want their icing super sweet like our buttercream icing so I’ve been working on making a less-sweet version and this one seems to be a winner!

If you don’t care for cream cheese you can try it with butter, but we really don’t mind the hint of cream cheese in ours. This also reminds us a lot of the icing we use for my husband’s favorite bean cupcakes… so good! We don’t use any sugar or flour in those and no one ever knows any different!
