Sing "Hallelujah!"

When your feeling stressed, Sing "Hallelujah!" a few times. "To make the 'l' sound, you have to tap your tongue on the alveolar ridge at the top of your mouth, "says Lang. "That stimulates the thy- mus gland to produce the hormone thymosine, and studies show thymosine gives you an instant sense of well-being. {A New Hallelujah} God Bless!!!

Recipe from Dottie

1 pkg. cranberries, 1 pkg. marshmellows } grind. Add 1 cup sugar, let sit for an hour. Fold in 1 pint of whip cream, 1 can of crushed pine- apple (drained) and chopped walnuts. Everyone loves this dish. One of my younger brothers came up with the idea of freezing this cran- berry dish a little bit and eating it when it was in the soft serve stage. I think he had froze it and thawed it to the soft serve stage and ate it. That is how he found it it was great that way. Enjoy!

Season of Truth

What determines the true start of a season, is it actually the date and time set by man, or is it the first sign of new growth in spring, a new bud or green breaking open the ground beneath my feet, could it be the first turn of yellow, red or orange of a leaf, or is it when all the leaves start to fall to the ground at my feet, is it the first frost, or the first dusting of snow? When does a new season truely begin, is it the date man as set or when nature itself is telling us so? ~Flassie

The Lovely Lemon

While looking up information on the {Lemon} and it's benefits, the following link came up to a: {Lemon Tart} that might be a nice recipe for me to try out for Thanksgiving dinner. I'd like some- thing different to add to the traditional dishes that seem to al- ways be served every year. God Bless You and Yours!!!

Stenciled Pickle Jar

I made this many years ago. In the 80's. A dsil taught me how. I wanted them to have a more finished look on the underneath side of the lid. So on some of the lid's I covered cardborad that I cut to fit, with material and attached it with hot glue gun. I repurposed a cardboard insert from either a dress shirt or nylon package. When I find one of the lids that I know is finished on the inside, I'll post it.
