We will be out of town for the greater part of this week, so I am using this oportunity to take a blogging break!
We’ll see you here next week for more recipes, tips and encouragement!
I will leave you with this lovely quote…
“Homemaking is an art, and you have the privilege of expressing and developing all your talents there in a little place called home. You get to build…beautify… organize…create…fuss…express yourself. You get to read and study and grow and master nutrition, finances, horticulture, design, wardrobe, etc. And you also get to shape your children, to give their precious lives a bent toward God. To nurture their souls with the good things of God. To pass on the truth about Jesus to one more generation. And to do so means you’ve got to be dedicated, organized, and a woman of purpose. And you’ve got to have the spunk and energy to follow through on all the dedication, organization, and purpose that answering God’s high calling to homemaking requires.”
–Elizabeth George, A Woman’s High Calling
Have a blessed week fulfilling you high calling of being a homemaker! It is an art that must be passionately pursued and patiently learned!
Have a nice time away. When you come back, can you answer a question about your ice cream maker? Is the bowl stainless steel? I can not find this infomation on Amazon. Thanks.
No, I do not believe so. It is metal with a plastic lined interior. Cannot say exactly what materials it is made out of. You would have to check with the manufacturer.
Thank you for the encouraging words. I needed those today.
May you and your family be drawn closer to each other and to our God and come back with strengthened vision, hearts and hands.
I am enjoying reading through your site.
Thank you.
Great quote!

That is my favorite part and one that challenges me. Wow, what a calling!
Enjoy your break!
Enjoy your trip! )
have a great time, and thanks for the very inspiring quote!
Religious differences notwithstanding, I quite like that quote. Too bad the rest of our culture does not value us homemakers so highly. Enjoy being away, travel makes us value our hearth more each time we leave it.
Lindsey,
That was an absolutely wonderful quote!! Our first tea party for spring cleaning went fabulous! You can see how much I picked up from you: http://www.grawberriesandnuggles.hazubu.com Thanks again for your inspiration and help!
