Because He Loves Me – There is NO Condemnation

I am not sure why, but this has been a very difficult chapter reflection to put into words. I likely comes from my personality that always likes to do things as “perfectly” as possible. And, from the part of me that likes to be appreciated…a little, but not too much…

Chicken Salad Sandwiches for the Road…

Mock Zuppa Tuscano

Mock “Zuppa Tuscano” (Creamy Sausage and Kale Soup)

Today, I had sausage in the refrigerator that was in need of being used. Of course, I could have made patties and fried it for breakfast, but, I really wanted to be able to use it for a dinner. After all, there is so much potential with Sausage. So, since…
