Sweet Potato Pie

Sweet Potatoes Anyone?
A few days prior to our son and daughter-in-law's visit, Strongheart spent time in the garden harvesting our sweet potatoes. He ended up with four bushels of sweet potatoes, out of the 16 sweet potato plants that he started.

From My Journal
TODAY IS: October 14, 2024
AROUND ME: I will be trying to get back into my day-to-day routine after having fun with family.
I AM PONDERING: this quote by F. B. Meyer "If you carefully watch yourselves, you will find that failure in temptation is always preceded by some permitted evil, which took place perhaps days before.
AMONG MY FAVORITE THINGS:
BOOKS I AM CURRENTLY READING:
Refreshment for the Soul is a collection of Richard Sibbes thoughts on different topics and is compiled as a devotional. So, it will be an ongoing reading throughout this year.
The Soul's Conflict by Richard Sibbes I'm making a bit of progress on this read. While Richard Sibbes writings as a Puritan are much easier reading than some of the Puritans, I have taken my time on purpose as I've read through the pages. It's been not only a learning experience, but also a convicting experience as well.
A Place for Weakness by Michael S.Horton Almost finished with this one. Hopefully, I'll be able to do a book review next week.
I AM THANKFUL FOR: The wonderful time that we had with our son and daughter-in-law from Maine last week. They were only here four full days, but we packed a ton of fun into those four days!
.FROM THE KITCHEN: I spent a lot of time in the kitchen prior to our son and daughter-in-law's visit preparing meals to store in the freezer and baking treats for the freezer also. I knew how much fun we were going to be packing into these few short days that they were here, and I didn't want to spend my time in the kitchen cooking, but I wanted them to be well fed. However, I did not take a single picture of any of it. I did a turkey breast, Julia's meatballs and pasta, pulled pork, chocolate chip cookies and raisin filled cookies, plus homemade bread for sandwiches for our lunches.
TO DO LIST FOR TODAY: A bit of laundry and some cleaning, as well as spending some time in the kitchen.
