Hey There and HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Here we are already some hours into 2021 and as far as I'm aware, nothing horrendous has happened yet! WHOOT WHOOT! I'm calling that a victory! I hope you have arrived safely, happily and with as much of your sanity as possible into this new year. This will be a short and sweet newsletter because the kids will be over after while for burgers and I've got some stuff to do first (like photos and videos that will carry us through the next week or so). So.... ON WITH THE RECIPES.... I'm still working on the infused water series and those will continue to go out over the next few weeks. Many of you enjoy the canned varieties available at the grocery. I've always enjoyed a glass when I go in my daughter's fancy dancy hair salon. Now, you can make your own for a great savings. I'll show you how. Since many of us are still hanging mostly at home, this is a terrific way to feel salon-esque on our own or to save money. Besides, adding some extra great tasting nutrients to your water can't be bad, right? Right! Here's Lemon Water and Blueberry Water. Personally, I'm not a fan of starting a diet right here at the New Year (so far, diets haven't worked for me, but hey, I get it, try and make some improvements and live a more healthy lifestyle, right?). Here's a few recipes that might help with that... How to Grill Salmon in a Foil Packet Grilled Green Beans in a Foil Packet Is there a recipe you would like to see at Loaves and Dishes? If so, please visit the "Request a Recipe Page" and leave a suggestion in the comment section at the bottom of the page. We've got two new recipes coming this month that originated from reader requests! _________ Yesterday, my daughter and I recorded a SURPRISE episode of Dorks with Sporks with some exciting news for mid-year Season 2. I hope you'll check it out as it is released today. Join us also for the episode that was released on 12/15 when we visited "The Glass Onion" in Charleston with Aunt Marcia and HOTS (husband of the show), Richie. You can find Dorks with Sporks on your Podcast App on your smart phone (or stitcher, spotify, etc.) or visit Dorkswithsporks.com for the latest episode (however, there's a glitch with the website at the moment that hopefully will be fixed by later today). _________ THREE LITTLE THINGS As some of you know, I've been trying to be more thankful for things in my every day life (including the tiny things) as I understand more and more that the air of gratitude gives me peace all over my life. Maybe you will be reminded to be a little more thankful as well. This week I'm grateful for...
________ A Final Thought... As we head off into the darkness that will probably be the next three months (I mean, it is dark and cold in a normal times, but I'm sure it will likely be more challenging with a pandemic and whatever happens with a presidential issue). I just want to tell you that I care about you. Many people do. It's my hope that we can all be there for each other, put down our worries and suspicions and just love one another. I believe that is what we are called to do, regardless of backgrounds, beliefs and ideologies. So, give someone a smile. I'm smiling at you as I write this and sending out the best possible prayers and vibrations to you to start the new year. Peace and Love, See You in Your Inbox Next Friday, God willing and the creek don't rise. Wendi Unsubscribe | Update your profile | PO Box 82 , Danbury, NC 27016  |
