Forever Memories

 The memories this week-end involve a lot of food-prep. I made the above recipe for a youth-group event called Progressive Supper. we hosted and served a main-course stop, after appetizers  at someone else's house, and then they moved on to the next host for dessert.

Now I'm prepping food for a BBQ tomorrow because the weather has suddenly turned summer-warm and we want to make keeper-memories out of these precious days...

Here is the dessert I whipped up...quick and easy so one is not cooped in the house all day cooking because...

...because life is too short to skip reading time:)

Victoria is reading Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll. 

She just showed me these pages, knowing I would enjoy them.

 I'm sharing them so you can enjoy them too! 

Have a sweet rest-of-Saturday!

I'm reading The Wind that Shakes the Barley, such a good book with much to share in poems to come:)

Moments make mem’ries, love

The trove of thought a place

That holds the dole of moment-gold

Pouring through our embrace

Futile to grip too tight

This which no one can stay

But to touch-taste its holy haste

As it soft-slips away

Time’s temporary chase

Of grace-allotted dream

Where hope and hurt wear the same dirt

Is a fast-flowing stream

Our creature-o’-habit hearts

Can cause us to forget

The suave romance and quick-foot dance

Of tick-tock pirouette

…an interlacing rush

Of soul-sweet agonies

Brushing our skin to repose in

Forever memories
