"The aged women likewise, that they be in behavior as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; that they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, to be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed." Titus 2:3-5

About Me

Oregon, United States
I am a happy, Christian, wife and post-homeschooling mother. I have spent the last several years homeschooling and now I am "adjusting" to a new season of life as "empty nester". In 2010 we moved to be Host/Caretakers at a Bible Camp. We look at our ministry here as preparing the way for the gospel to be shared as well as encouraging believers in their daily walk. I am a farmgirl at heart and love the country, I love gardening and food preserving. I also, love tea parties!! I also have a Titus 2 heart and want to share with anyone willing to listen and learn. I love having friends over and teaching them how to make bread or put up pickles. And as we work, I love to encourage them to love their husbands and their children and to be Keepers at Home and all that implies and I love that you let me do that here!! Hope you enjoy visiting my farm and walking through a journey in life with me.......I hope at some point in time I can encourage you in your walk and in your home..........

Easy Granola

Low fat and very tasty......
1/3 C oil
1/2 C honey
1/4 C water
1 tsp vanilla
7 1/2 C uncooked rolled cereal
(wheat, oats...above I used a 7 grain
cereal because that is what
I had on hand)
1/4 C shelled sunflower seeds
1/4 walnuts
1/2 C powdered nonfat milk
1 C raisins or other dried fruit
(I used coconut instead)
You can easily play around with the
ingredients, incorporating what you
like in granola and the flavor
you want.....like, how about maple??

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

  • In a saucepan, heat oil, honey, water and vanilla until well blended.
  • In a large bowl, combine cereals, nutsand powdered milk.
  • Pour liquid ingredients over dry and mix well.
  • Sread mixture on two jelly-roll pans or cookie sheets or whatever you have.
  • Bake for 10 min. stirring occasionally.
  • Remove from oven; add raisins.
  • Let cool until crisp before storing in airtight container.
(Makes about 10 cups)
We enjoy this with yogurt for breakfast
and snacks!!
(Homemade yogurt coming soon...:)
