Beef Stroganoff
I follow Mary Pat Sass (fka, The Millennial Farmwife) on Instagram and a few months ago she posted an Instastory of her making this beef stroganoff. I thought it sounded good, so I gave it a try and it has quickly become one of my husband’s and my favorite beef entrees. Hope you like it, too! Print Recipe Beef Stroganoff I have not timed myself when I've made this dish, but it really doesn't take too long. Long enough to brown hamburger and cook noodles.

Hindsight is 2020
I know so many of us cannot wait to bid farewell to 2020. But, honestly, not all of 2020 was bad. I’m seeing a lot of Facebook and Instagram posts the past few days of people looking back over the year and I thought I would do the same. I’m going to share with you just a few things I’ve learned, or rather been reminded of during this crazy year. Lessons and Reminders during 2020 God is good all the time. Even in a year with a pandemic. I have known all my life that God is good and that He is good all the time. There were times this…

Support Local-Shop Small
Good Morning! I want to talk about shopping small businesses for the holiday season. Small Business Saturday is coming up on Saturday, November 28th. In the last few years, I have been making it a point to support local shops as much as I can. I enjoy seeing the owner’s passion in what they do and meet new people in the community. Shopping small is supporting people like you, who are trying to make a living doing something they love and enjoy. It seems like more than ever we are seeing people hone in on a craft that they might have been doing just as a hobby and now it’s…

Ladies of the Church
This post has been mulling around in my head for the last several days. Last weekend I headed back home to Illinois for a quick trip. Over the past year I have started listening to podcasts when I travel on my own. It makes the time go by faster than just listening to music. One of my favorite podcasts to listen to is Jamie Ivey’s podcast, The Happy Hour. My five hour drive home is truly a much happier one when I listen to her guests share their stories. I have been left encouraged and inspired on more than one occasion. It was on one of Jamie’s most recent podcast…

These Are a Few of My Favorite Things
How many of you just sang that title in your head when you looked at it? Anyone? Just me? Ok. Well, I haven’t posted in a while because I got caught up in making crafts. When I get into craft mode, I tend to push other things off and blogging happened to be one of those things. But, I’m back at it! Fall is my favorite season. The leaves changing color, the break in humidity, sweater weather, Harvest, wiener roasts and, of course, the pumpkins. Normally, I would have hit up a pumpkin patch at least once, but I didn’t do that this year. (And no, I’m not bitter because…
