A Gastronomical journey in 2012-about to begin-hold on if your going to follow

I 'm preparing to start this year out right.In fact, I'v'e been keeping a little secret for 3 months.This coming up year I will be slim and healthy.I'm having Bariatric surgery.I'm almost there.Yes, it's a real journey I'm going on.I must fly on the back of the Creator's wings and not look down into the darkness. I know from  My own experience and the experience of generations before Me that He is able to carry me through this. 

Me on the back of the creator-watch us soar.I can just sit back and enjoy the new journey this next year will bring.

I will feel young enough to continue enjoying whatever life brings my way.More babes to love and teach the mysteries to and more enchanting lands to soar through.

The I AM will be with me.

If you want to follow our journey,go ahead.No fear though of where we go or what we show you.

I don't even know where He plans to take Me,or the doors He plans to open and close.

I cannot fear the living water now,how long I live or what I see.

I am in His arms no matter where in 2012.

Peace To You.

A cup of cheer!

One of my favorites.

Wishing anyone who reads this peace that passes all understanding.

That's what I've been blessed with and I want you to have it too this Christmas and all year through.

A peace no matter the circumstance....that's

 one reason it's so hard to understand.

Peace that's overflowing

I wasn't going to post again until after Christmas,but My heart is so full of good cheer it's coming out of my ears.These blessings aren't hard to obtain.Just say YES to the baby Jesus.

The little Lamb

Mary's little lamb,

so sweet..... 

So beautiful....

Merry Christmas to us all.

• The Lamb Of God who takes away our sins-Thank You

Which road to take?

The search and journey continues all the days of our lives.

Unquenchable  thirst keeps us searching.

We look for that one special thing that will  keep us enchanted....

or that one place...

we know we can find it....

nature speaks of it.

 Are you on the right path?

You are not alone,you can find IT.

You do have wisdom,listen to the quiet voice inside.

 Advice  to which road to take...

stories are told,lessons are taught,

is the answer anywhere?

Oh yes!

All  roads you choose   

I pray lead you here.Merry Christmas.Denise

Cold wintery nights wind in Rancho Cucamonga

Christmas palm trees blowing in the wind .

The moon was glowing in the clear frosty sky. I went out last night during the wind storm  to take photos of my Christmas  tree.It was so beautiful out and felt so wintery wonderful I decided to continue on my windy brisk walk.

 The whole village was quiet not a voice in the wind.No carolers out in the cold.Only twinkling lights in the silent night.

When I got back home it was  warm and glowing inside with the love of my husband and memories of a blessed life.Stay well and safe these  cold wintery nights.
