Psalm 118:24
from The Message (MSG)

Thank you for responding to me; you’ve truly become my salvation! The stone the masons discarded as flawed is now the capstone!
   This is God’s work.   We rub our eyes—we can hardly believe it!
   This is the very day God acted — let’s celebrate and be festive!
   Salvation now, God. Salvation now! Oh yes, God—a free and full life!

Happy Friday the 13th~ thirteen is my lucky number! I decided years ago that instead of fearing the number 13 (like so many do) that I would take it as my “lucky” number. I don’t really know how “lucky” it has been, but I do know I always embrace Friday the 13th as a great day to be alive! And today is no exception! This is the day the Lord has made and I am rejoicing with happiness. It is the end of the work week for many and that in itself is enough to rejoice about!

Before posting the pictures from this week’s “round up” I came across a couple recipes from others I thought I would share. Doggy Dessert Chef continues to amaze me with the treats for our furry friends. Here is a posting from her website. I didn’t know dogs love peanuts — Did you?
Dogs love peanuts and you can never have to may peanut recipes!
These are a few of the drool worthy ones I’ve found.

We don’t eat Chinese food very often. (CC#1 doesn’t care for it.) But mom and I eat it from time to time when we are left on are own for a meal. However, when we do eat it, I always order Crab Rangoon. I love those little wontons stuffed with cream and crab. I mean, what’s not to like? However, they are fried. So, I am intrigued by this recipe posted by Tracey this week. Baked Crab Rangoon. I don’t know when I will get it made, but I am saving the recipe for sure. If you decide to give it a try, let me know how you like it!

This has been a fun cooking week for me. I discovered the recipe for the incredible Blueberry Cream Cake and truly can’t wait to make it again.

I also perfected my favorite potato soup by adding a second cheese – that being Fontina! Fontina cheese has its origin in Italy with the Italian version quite pungent, but full of flavor. I tend to buy the “Danish” made version of Fontina cheese, which is semi-soft and mild. I just love it in so many dishes and it enhances the richness of potato soup perfectly.

A new recipe for me and a bit of a surprise was the Donut Muffins, or should I write “Doughnut Muffins.” Tomatoes, tomaaatoes … they taste like donuts and muffins all mixed into one!

Rounding out the week was the first meal of the week … Ham and Potato Gratin. I added the ham to make a one-dish-meal (lazy on my part) and it turned out great. This is a keeper recipe no matter if you want to make an awesome side dish of potato gratin, or a one-dish-meal. Either way — yum.

Have a great weekend, many blessings and happy cooking!

Treats For Our Four Legged Friends

Posted on June 12, 2011 | 2 Comments

We are lucky to live only about 3 miles from my husband’s brother and sister-in-law. It is a quick trip down the road to share a meal, stop by for a visit, or use their internet, which does not falter like mine does

My sister-in-law has eight Jack Russell Terriers of various ages, sizes and personalities. Feeding and caring for all of these little creatures is quite a full time job! As her little family grew one by one, she realized she needed to come up with an economical home made treat rather than purchasing them. This recipe came from her friend Rane. If your best friend is a little furry, you may want to try these treats. They are healthy and easy to make. Your pet will love you for it! You may also want to stop by her website at www.raushilljackrussellterriers.com to view her little family.

Besides her four legged friends Liz’s other passion can be seen at www.quiltsbyelizabeth.com . When we first met we had an instant kinship in our love of quilting. Liz’s talent far exceeds mine and she has created some stunning original quilts. We love spending time talking about fabric, projects, and things we don’t get done! For today, I will try and get this blog done.

Spot’s Golden Cheese Dreams

3 cups whole wheat flour
2 tsps garlic powder
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup shredded cheese
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk

In large mixing bowl, combine flour and garlic powder.

Make a well in the flour mixture and gradually stir in the oil, cheese, egg and milk until well blended.

Knead dough on a floured surface, about 3-4 minutes.

With a rolling pin, roll dough to 1/2″ thickness.

Cut to desired shape and place on lightly greased baking sheet (I use parchment paper).

Bake 25 minutes @ 400 F.

Cool on a rack and store, at room temperature, in a container with a loose fitting lid.

Note: *Be sure and store in a container with a loose lid – not an airtight lid. There are no preservatives and so they will mold if stored airtight. Otherwise they will last for a month of so. When I have made them I store in a cookie jar that has a loose lid.

* If you don’t want to cut out shapes you can roll out the dough on your cookie sheet, square it off, score into small squares and bake the whole thing at once. Once they are cooled just break apart.

Proverbs 12:1-4

Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge,
but whoever hates correction is stupid.

² Good people obtain favor from the LORD,
but he condemns those who devise wicked schemes.

³ No one can be established through wickedness,
but the righteous cannot be uprooted.

⁴ A wife of noble character is her husband’s crown,
but a disgraceful wife is like decay in his bones.

There are 31 chapters in Proverbs. Reading one chapter a day is a great way to get in the habit of a daily devotional. If you coincide the day of the month with the chapter you are reading you will always know where to begin each day!
