Sunday Bible journaling

It's Sunday bible journal class and fellowship with friends in the church hall. 

Today's verse is a favorite, that I colored in my Bible journal.  

But if you don't have one, you can use a regular Bible or even a notebook to journal and meditate on the word.

Peanut Butter Dog Biscuits

• • 3 cups all-purpose flour or whole wheat flour or flour substitute 
  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten ( egg allergy :egg substitute) 
  • 1 C peanut Butter 
  • ⅓ to ½ cup water

  Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix flour, eggs, peanut butter  and water in a large bowl, forming a stiff dough with your hands. Add more water if necessary.
  • Dust surface with flour. Using a rolling pin, roll out dough about ¼ inch thick. Using a cookie cutter, cut into shapes (or use a pizza cutter wheel or knife to cut into small strips).
  • Place onto prepared baking sheet and bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until lightly browned and cooked through.
  • Cool on a wire rack. Once cooled, store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

  I use this recipe and substitute at will.  Sweet potatoes or pumpkin works great instead of peanut butter. I have but part oatmeal  and part flour too.

Book review: Apple Pie A La Murder:

 

Apple Pie A La Murder: A Freshly Baked Cozy Mystery, book 

Ever decide to do a good deed and it ends up making people suspect you of murder? No? Just me, then?

Allie finds herself entangled in a web of suspicion, all thanks to her best friend, Lucy Gray. Lucy’s well-meaning advice to have Allie’s homemade pies featured in Henry Hoffer’s restaurant takes a dark turn when Henry dies under mysterious circumstances right after tasting Allie’s apple pie. Despite her innocence, the cloud of guilt hovers over her.

Complicating matters is the recent appointment of a new detective by the police chief. Described as tall, dark, and irresistibly handsome, he is equally relentless in his pursuit of justice. With his eye set on Allie as the prime suspect, the stakes have never been higher.

As the investigation unfolds, Allie and Lucy are thrust into a race against time to find the real perpetrator. An unflattering orange prison jumpsuit threatens to become Allie’s new reality—she must prove her innocence before it’s too late. Can Allie clear her name, or will the true killer remain at large, leaving her to face the consequences?

Book Review 

I enjoyed the first book in this series. The main character, her best friend Lucy, and the handsome detective are all characters who are easy to like. The touch of a grieving widow trying to help others is an unusual element. I appreciated the relationship Allie has with her children. Funniest part was her son's reason for hoping that she wouldn't go to prison. I figured out fairly quickly whodunit, but I will NOT give any more clues. I Don't want to spoil your fun.
