I mentioned Last Week that the theme for the women of Bodenseehof during my student year was “Freedom,” which was perfect for me that year. (They have men’s and women’s devotions every year, and the women’s part always has a theme.) For the next two years, I was put in charge of women’s devotions, and I chose […]
Last week I told you about some of the miraculous events that took place for me to be able to go to Germany for Bible School. I still can’t believe it, when I think about it – It was all too perfect! But so wonderful, and so good. God is able to do amazing things! […]
Last Week I left you hanging by telling you that I needed $10,000 to go to Bible school in Germany, and that I had just set my plan in place for saving the money. Two years of saving, I hoped, would get me there… not with much to spare, granted, but I’d be able to […]
Okay, so! Time to pick up from Part 4 of my story. Before I get in too deep, I would just like to acknowledge that there is a very important part of my story that I have not yet mentioned – and that would be the part that tells why I started this blog, and […]
I find that on these crisp, fall days, when the breeze starts to turn toward winter and the first few snowflakes make an appearance here and there, there are few things more satisfying than a hot bowl of soup served with warm, fresh bread. If you haven’t had that experience, I hope this post will […]
Hey everyone! I had intended to write “Part 5” of my story on the blog this week, but frankly, I can’t. I’m just… working and stuff, and I don’t have time. 🙁 Sad day! But I’m thankful for my job, so not too sad – just… you know. Sometimes you gotta roll with the punches, […]
Do you ever feel like you’re just one of those people who walk the path of crazy happenings, and no matter how hard you try to avoid them, you can’t escape? For example, the Fire/Flood that happened to us during the time I made my first wedding cake; that would be a prime example. Last […]
Continuing from Last Week… _____________________________ Sometimes I look back on the things that I’ve done and wonder how I had the courage to even try the things that I did, when I did, with what I had. I was 16 when I decided to make wedding cakes, and I had almost no experience; just the […]
I left off Last Week telling you that I had purchased The Essential Guide to Cake Decorating with a mind to make cakes, which would thus fulfil my requirement to graduate High School, and would also allow me to pursue a skill that I thought I would enjoy. My first exposure to making cakes for […]
Okay: Apple Butter simmering on the stove, hot coffee in hand, and feet propped up for writing – I think I’m ready to start telling this story. I recently mentioned that I wanted to share about some of my journey making cakes, and well… Thinking about it, I realized I kind of need to go […]
