I have to confess that a couple of years ago I was so excited to see Fiber One Toaster Pastries on the shelf. I drove all over town looking for each flavor, because finally there was a “healthy” version of a Pop Tart that I could give my kid. Okay, I wanted to eat them, [...]

Have you ever made grilled pizza? If not, it’s a must. Especially with the July 4th holiday coming up. It’s so easy and so delicious and I guarantee that everyone will forget that they came to watch fireworks once they sink their teeth into chewy, cheesy pizza.

Tomorrow morning I, along with seven others from Living Water Christian Church, am heading down to Americus, GA, specifically to Koinonia Farms. Koinonia Farms is a rural Christian community founded in 1942 and is the birthplace of Habitat for Humanity, as well as, many other peacemaking, social justice organizations.
