WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 28TH, 2024
The moments of our lives may be bright with possibility, dark with fear or sadness, or even plain everyday gray, but God's glory never fades. May God's glory shine into the exciting lights, upsetting darks, and boring grays of your every day.
Slightly adapted from one of my morning devotionals
Life is a special occasion!
Today is Cherry Turnover Day which celebrates a delicious pastry that can be enjoyed for breakfast or dessert They originated in ancient times and are classified as portable pies. Other dishes in the culinary family include pasties, empanadas, and spring rolls.
A traditional cherry turnover recipe calls for puff pastry which is stuffed with a gooey cherry filling and then baked until gold brown. There are may variations on this classic treat. Some. recipes call for cream cheese, extra lemon juice, or even ice cream.
To celebrate today, bake your own cherry turnovers to share with family and friends.
Enjoy!
To see the bright side, polish the dull side
Life is simple, it’s either cherry red or midnight blue.

My mom used to make homemade turnovers every year for Christmas and she gave us the recipe so we could make our own, but most of the time I make the delicious treats a much simpler way. I use crescent roll dough and cherry pie filling. They are easy and delicious You could also make them like fry pies using biscuit dough.
We got a shower yesterday and it’s really cloudy here this morning, so it’s looking like more rain today. We really need it after the hot spell we had so that is a very good thing. We’ll be in the lower 90’s and that’s not bad either compared to over 100+ degrees. Most of the grass is still green but there are a few brown spots that should soon green right back up after another good rain.
I hope you all have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
Life is like a cocktail, made up for the most part of sweet things, and tinged with a dash of bitters. We must drain it to the dregs to get the cherry, just as we must live a full and rounded life to know all its pleasures.

Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
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 EMT’s.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
Life is just a bowl of cherries, don’t take it serious, its mysterious. Life is just a bowl of cherries so live and laugh and laugh at love, love a laugh , laugh and love.

Sorry I couldn't include many pictures today because My computer battery is dying and needs recharging. I hope you all can enjoy a turnover today!
These Cherry Turnovers are a delicious and easy treat to make!
I used to make turnovers all the time for my parents. I think that was a Home Economics thing, because I've not done so since. Happy Wednesday!
