The Muffin Files

One way I’ve kept my frozen items organized is by “filing” my baked goods in a plastic bin that fits in our deep freezer. I put the baked goods in similar sized ziploc bags, suck all the air out with a straw, put labels on top where they can be seen, and [...]

I’m 3 Weeks Old!

Since I’m three weeks old now, Mommy said I could write about myself this week.

Utilizing Dead Closet Space

Houses built in the 1890’s are not known for their spacious closets. Since we’re living in such a house, closet space is at a premium–particularly since we don’t have the luxury of a garage, shed, or china cabinet. When we first moved in, we only had one closet in the entire house with [...]

MP3: Voddie Baucham on the Centrality of the Home

Taking a break from the recent MP3 recommendations on Christian biographies, I heartily recommend Voddie Baucham’s sermon, The Centrality of the Home in the Evangelism and Discipleship of the Next Generation.
The official blurb:

No More Mushy Grapes

If you’re like me, you’re not exactly wanting to encounter the grapes of wrath when you open your refrigerator door. So what’s to be done when you have a surplus of grapes?
