My beautiful voice teacher has made this for years and somehow I was able to talk her into letting me help her make it this year (and copy the recipe!). Thank you, Joan!

ReplyDeleteI found your blog through your article at YLCF. It was very well-written and made me think how very much I agree with you. When we're going through hard times, they seem horrendous and we can't wait for them to pass, but in the long run, we know that they were necessary fires to refine us into the gold God desires us to be.
Thank you for that beautiful reminder! Have a blessed day!
