I have been using a nice, cotton table cloth on my kitchen table every day for every meal for at least the last two years or so. There are oodles of reasons for this. I like the look of a pretty cloth spread over the table all of the time. The table cloth makes even […]

We had a wonderful Lord’s Day yesterday. I hope you all did as well. It’s such a delight for me, personally, to be in a family integrated worship service. I love hearing the babies “talking” sweetly.

Mexican Cornbread Casserole
Mexican Corn Bread Casserole is a great dish for family dinner or to take to a potluck. Flavorful, and not too spicy, the ground beef, corn, cheese and chilies contrast nicely with the sweet cornbread topping. This is a recipe I’m often asked to share. This recipe serves 4-5, but doubles well to serve up […]
