Picture this:   Your life is the glass.   The water in the glass is what you fill your life with. The question is not whether your life is half empty or half full.   The more important question is:   Are you thankful for your glass and what’s in it?   In Christ, EVERY GLASS is filled with enough of Him Would you take a minute and watch this

Last year, my family went to my sister’s house for Thanksgiving.  She had made a turkey and I brought one, too.  After all the eating we could do, I still came home with an uncut turkey to eat up all on our own.  We, of course, had made way too much food.   In an effort to not waste it and to vary what we were eating, I decided to

Do you have some time to sit down and do another Thanksgiving craft this week?  It’s hard to believe that Thanksgiving is already on Thursday, isn’t it?  It feels so early this year!  We took a few minutes today to make this adorable thanksgiving turkey wreath craft.  It’s not too hard and doesn’t take much time either.  We didn’t have anything on our front door yet, so I just used

Doesn’t that just sound like a bazaar thing for me to write about?  The truth is, when I first signed up to be one of the writers in the 31 Days of Thanks blog hop, I didn’t think I’d be writing about any of that! As I sit here, in my 7 year old daughter’s hospital room with my feet propped up on a chair, I have plenty of time

Today is the beginning of Week 10 of the Get Healthy & Fit 12 week Series that I’ve been doing with 18 other bloggers.  My enthusiasm has been waning and I keep wanting to quit.  The only thing that I’m doing very well is this:  I’m not having soda nearly as often as I was when I first started this challenge.  The rest of my goals have gone downhill quite

Do you ever think about how safe it is to allow our children the use of a cell phone?  In our day and age, we all have children using them.  If your children aren’t, I’m sure that they have friends that do.  Many of them are given rules and guidelines of how they are allowed to use their phones, but plenty of children haven’t been given any rules at all.

The trees are decked out in their fiery best, sweaters and coats have a permanent place in the diaper bag, and I have to remind my toddler for the thousandth time that yes, he needs to put on socks before his sneakers.

Testimonials

  • Amorette DavisUser of the Free Freezer to Slow Cooker One Week Menu

    Thank you so much! As a special needs mommy these recipes have helped us so much.   I often am very busy with being a nurse for our child that I don't have time for making sure we get meals.  This allows me to do all my prep on the weekends, while my husband is home to help, and to cook during the week.  So grateful!

  • Linda SearsOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Menus

    Sarah’s Freezer to Slow Cooker ebooks have been a fantastic addition to my meal plans.  They make meal planning easy and my family happy. I love the way each recipe is laid out, with a shopping list and ingredient prep list, along with cooking instructions. Sarah’s done all the hard work for me!  The recipes have used have all been delicious and easily adaptable to my family’s taste and the number of people I’m serving.

  • FranOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebooks
     I purchased all of your freezer to slow cooker ebooks a month or so ago and I'm in love with this way of cooking.  I now have taken all 10 weeks of recipes and written them of my menu planner and then I repeated the 10 weeks and will continue to do so throughout the year.  My family of 5 adults and 1 child enjoy the meals that you have planned and I have cooked and I'm excited that the next time when that meal comes due up in the rotation I won't have to purchase anything but just pull it from the freezer.  Thank you so much

    This makes my life so much easier. I'm a busy work at home/stay at home mom, wife, business woman and I feel like dinner is always the thing I just never get time to do. We have done like 15 of the crockpot recipes from Sarah and they are all very yummy. They get a thumbs up from my husband and kids every time. And there is always enough for my husband to take the left overs at least 2x per recipe. I have a family of 5, 2 adults, 21, 13, 16. So it makes plenty. Thank you Sarah.

  • Dawn S.Buyer of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebook Series
    I am a 59-year-old wife and mother of two grown children.  I love your idea of fixing a lot of meals ahead of time and then pulling one out, put it in the crockpot, and you have dinner when you get home.  I hate feeling rushed when I cook so Monday - Friday I use those crockpot meals and make enough that we have lunch the next day.  I take Sunday afternoon, fix up what I need for the week (I don't have a lot of freezer space so I do a week's worth at a time) and I'm done with it!  Saturdays I like to try new recipes from some of my cookbooks which I am finding I can freeze as well!  So you have shown me a whole new way to organize my time and still put a healthy meal on the table.  Thanks so much and I look forward to future blogs.
