Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
The first Thursday in November is National Men Make Dinner Day. It was created for two reasons. First, it is to give the ladies a break from the cooking chores. Secondly, it seeks to encourage men who do not cook, to learn to cook, beginning by making a meal on this day. Of course, even men who do cook, should celebrate this day by making a meal.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
I think it bespeaks a generous nature, a man who can cook.
Jilly Cooper
Men are often very good cooks and I think that my sons are some of the best. They all loved to eat when they were young boys at home and always spent a lot of time in the kitchen so they all learned how to cook.
There are no men here at my house today so I thought I’d let Hungry Man fix my dinner tonight. I don’t often have a frozen dinner, but it’s sometimes nice not to cook. Ha!
Most of the time I make my own frozen dinners. Soup is very good frozen and reheated and when I have room in the freezer it’s good to freeze a few containers for a rainy chilly day.
This will probably be the last of our wonderful Indian Summer days here as rain is predicted for tomorrow. I took the pictures shown today on Tuesday. It was such a beautiful day !
I hope you all have a GREAT day! Happy Thursday!
PRAYER REQUEST
A friend has requested prayers for her SIL’s father who was admitted to a hospital to be treated for what they thought was pneumonia but it they found blood clots in his lungs. They are going to try to dissolve them. Please join me in praying for him. May the dear Lord blessing him with restored health and guide the doctors caring for him. We pray in all things, Thy will be done Lord.
COUNTING MY GIFTS
For each new morning with its light,
For rest and shelter of the night,
For health and food, for love and friends,
For everything Thy goodness sends.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Counting at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for. There is truly is always something to be thankful for.
3283. for men that cook, especially my sons
3284. for a freezer that still works
3285. for this beautiful weather, I just can’t believe it’s November
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
49 Days Until Christmas
Our task for today is to create a Thanksgiving Menu by listing the types of foods that you would like to include in your Thanksgiving meal: appetizers, main course, side dishes, bread, salads, and most importantly, desserts! Maybe you already have a favorite sweet potato recipe or maybe you want to find one that would work for your family. Start planning now for a meaningful family dinner they won’t forget!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military
as they discharge their duties
with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU ALL !

It did look like it was a nice day in your pictures, Ma :) I think its cute you are having a Hungry Man's dinner tonight :) We often do TV dinners on nights when it can be a bit busy when hubby has practice for the worship team at church or if he goes out of town I'll have one. Hubby is definitely the better cook here in our house and I gladly let him "take over" the kitchen :)
