  • Don’t rely on oven for home canning

    I’ve gotten a variety of calls and e-mails recently on topics related to nutrition and food safety. I wanted to remind everyone to always keep food safety in mind whether you are trying to do home canning or just making purchases for your family.

  • God sometimes says ‘no’ to our pleas

    “No good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.” Psalm 84:11

    If it was a good thing God would not have said no. Either the timing is wrong or he has something better for you.
