Blogmas 2022: 12/23/22

 Today was about finishing up the food preps for our Christmas ...

a made from scratch german chocolate cake (it's our favorite) ...

and 2 made from scratch pecan pies!

Later in the evening, around dusk, we heard someone holler 'hey' as they were coming up the steps to our porch.  Hubby went to see who it was and it was a neighbor bringing us this ...

Isn't the packaging of this food gift beautiful!  Inside are pieces of fudge covered brownies, YUM!

On a different note, our hearts go out to, and we are praying for all those being affected by the severe frigid cold, snow and ice sweeping across the U.S.   Many are without power, others have frozen pipes, some are experiencing rolling blackouts while others are struggling to stay warm even with power.   If you are of a nature to pray, in addition to all those directly affected, please also pray for the emergency personnel, linemen, etc who have to be out in the weather in order to restore lost utilities or to care for those needing emergency medical care.  It's entirely truth to say that this situation gives prayer warriors many opportunities to pray!

So far, we have not experienced these dangerous temps, but they are forecast to arrive in our area overnight.  We've done everything we can to prepare, making prayer an important part of our preps.

Everyone stay safe and warm out there!

Until tomorrow!

Merry Christmas from us to you!
