A potato masher. Yes, a potato masher is giving me cause to tell you of reasons to give thanks today.
My Momma’s potato masher. I don’t use it but I value it; so much that it has a place of display in the kitchen. The handle is clear evidence that she used it for years, and she mashed more than potatoes.
Strawberries!
I can still see her mashing that pan of berries as she prepared the berries for the freezer and/or strawberry jam.
Sweet memories!
As we gather today for our official Day of Thanksgiving, count your memories sweet and give thanks for every precious one yet to be made, even today.
The smell of rain and a hint of red is bringing on my thanks.
Peace Contentment Without a doubt, gifts to be treasured. Yet by no amount of striving do we earn them, GOD bestows them, that we may gladly receive.
Such is this day, Today.
The morning was graced with fellowship sweet — two younger sisters of faith, our Bibles open, paper and pens and so there we were each poised to learn. Our lunch was waiting on the counter warm since with them it had arrived – meat and potatoes, I added soft wheat bread on the side. Yum and yummy, all satisfied; every dish washed to air dry — oh no it can’t be that time – not necessary adieus so soon.
Two lawn chairs he did place under the back stoop roof
for a little smell of rain and a hint of red.
A new to me recipe that is good enough to prepare again. Yes. For that, I am giving thanks today.
Especially when the ingredients are good for you, like brussel sprouts! Are you interested?
It’s a pretty dish cooking, don’t you think? It does have a suggested ingredient that my beloved cannot abide – Feta Cheese. So, at serving time I only added the Feta to my serving.
1PoundBrussels Sprouts 2/3Cup Fresh Cranberries 1/3Cup Feta Cheese 1/3Cup Pecans 1tablespoon Maple Syrup 1tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar (I used raspberry Balsamic Vinegar) Olive Oil Salt & Pepper
We are glad you are here; stay a while, look around, and be encouraged. We estimate there to be over 3,000 posts here at The White Stone Blog. Please know my hope is ALWAYS to help and NEVER harm. I have voiced many opinions and thoughts here since 2007 and by now I MAY NOT EVEN AGREE with all of them and some of my grammar and punctuation likely needs editing. But this is changeless: JESUS is our ONLY Savior and Hope. Do you KNOW Him?
