IT IS PAST TIME - SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED

Good evening! Time to reacquaint myself. How are you! I am taking the time to visit a while. So many wonderful things have happened and so many sad things have taken place - but that is life as we travel this road - waiting on our Heavenly home!
I guess one of the greatest things that has happened that I was involved in was "Ladies Spa Night" at Shiloh last Friday night. Barbara Warner and I got together and threw together a plan. Have you ever had a plan develop even better than you can imagine? Well that is when a Godly woman and God help you! Our spa night was awesome and I give Barbara and God all the praise and Glory! WE had about 65 women there - young mothers with children to great grandmothers. A beautiful sight! Style Salon and Day Spa could not have helped more. Leigh Ann - hair stylist, Cassidy make up expert and Haleigh and her chair massage therapy were the hit of the night! Many door prises were handed out and we had food left over! Yes -= it was sandwiches - but homemade ones!
Of course - with a crowd that large - there is bound to be a couple of incidents - suspected heart attack, and perhaps a concussion when another fell. But as we've said over and over and over - God is good and he hears the prayer of a righteous man (woman!). One didn't have a heart attack and the other didn't have a concussion. Scary though - but God is so good!


On June 27 I posted a recipe "Texas Strawberry Shortcake" and at the time I had not tried it. Well - now I have and it is wonderful!!! I have made it about three time and about Thursday I will make three recipes of it for Travis !Try it -- it is so easy and everyone things it is tops!!!

Tonight I want to give you a Lemon Pie recipe that is supposedly foolproof - if you carefully read and follow the recipe and COMMON SENSE!

LEMON PIE

2 EGG YOlKS, BEATEN WELL
1 Can Eagle Brand Milk or whatever Sweetened Condensed Milk you choose
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tsp. vanilla flavoring.(You know I don't think there is another one except Mexican flavoring!)
2 to 4 egg while, beaten until frothy
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 cup sugar
1 small Graham Cracker crust

Beat egg yolks well; add Eagle brand milk, combining well. Add lemon juice and vanilla flavoring. Beat well. Pour into a small (either cake pan or 8 inch cake pan). Bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees.

While it is cooking, combine the egg whites and 1 Tablespoon baking powder and beat until it begins to hold mounds. Then slowly add sugar and beat until puffy. Pour over pie and return to oven until Meringe is set and lightly browned!
This will be wonderful if you do as I say - not what I've done!!**
Allow to cool down and then refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Slice and enjoy!! ** WHAT I DID was drop lemon juice into the egg whites by mistake and have to add powdered sugar to reach a good consistency!


Well time is playing out on me! I am so tired!! I am going to sign off and I won't make any promises but hopefully I will be able to write again soon.! Hope you enjoy and are practicing "helping others.
