Words of Wisdom

"To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover the prisoner was YOU."

If you forgive others their failing, your heavenly Father will forgive yours; but if you do not forgive others, your Father will not forgive your failings either. ~Matthew 6: 14-15 (New Jerusalem Bible)

Once Upon a Recipe

I didn't know until I started working on the Stubbs Family Reunion Cookbook how many recipes I have and that I use on a regular basis. I have to start deciding on the ones I really want to enter as there are those of the rest of the family that will be shared as well. The easy Carmel Breakfast Rolls is one I think I'll add. I have played with this recipe in the last few years as a way to use canned biscuits and make them fancy. Here's the recipe for your edification. Try it and let me know what you think. If you have your own easy-does-it recipe, please help us all by sharing it.


Carmel Breakfast Rolls

1 can large refrigerated biscuits
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup chopped nuts

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Spray 10 inch square baking dish with oil. In a small sauce pan melt butter. Add brown sugar and heat on high until it begins to bubble. Cook about 1 minute. Pour into the bottom of the baking dish. Sprinkle chopped nuts over this mixture. Place the biscuits on top of the nuts and bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool on rack for 5 minutes and then invert the pan onto serving dish. Serve warm.

Please try this and let me know what you think.

RotoCat


We have a cat...His name is Sam. His nickname is RotoCat. Why? He's always going out and almost immediately he's meowing to come in again. Sam is also a creature of habit!!!!

He goes out the back door and sits on the step at the front door to come in. Could not resist taking a picture this morning. He's most patient. He sat there and posed until I let him in. WHAT A CAT!!!

Tea Talk~There's Always the Day After


May you always have walls for the wind.
a roof for the rain, tea beside the fire,
laughter to cheer you, those you love near you
and all your heart might desire.

Irish Blessing


For all those who had a most grand celebration, recuperation may not be as hard as you think. Sit down with a hot cuppa tea, put your feet up, and be profoundly grateful it's only a headache you're havin'!

I'm having...Good Earth Tea with it's warm cinnamon sweetness.

My teacup is...my plain white mug (nothing too flashy this morning).

I'm feeling... Grand! Though the foot is a wonderful shade of black-and-blue I can walk on it without any discomfort today and have been without "the boot" for two days now!

On my mind...is gratitude for a strained foot not a broken foot!
