Tuesday 4 ~ Coffee and Tea ~ 6/7/2022

1. What is/are your favorite coffee? (brand or flavor) If you are a tea lover, which tea is the best for you?
I am NOT a coffee drinker. I don't like it at all! I do, however, love tea :) My favorite is Bigelow's Vanilla Chai.
2. How do you take your coffee or tea? Sugar, cream , flavoring?
Cream and sugar, please!
3. Do you go out for coffee/tea with friends? Ever enjoy a real tea room or a tea party?
Not really. How sad is that?!? I've never been to a tea room but my girls and I have had plenty of tea parties :) I actually also went to a Ladies Tea a few weeks ago at a sister Church. It was very nice :)
4. If you could design a coffee shop or even a coffee/tea station in your home, what would it be like?
I wouldn't even know where to begin! It would have to have baked goods, though. That I do know!

Happy Homemaker Monday ~ 6/6/2022
"Rejoice in the LORD always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The LORD is near. Don't worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus."
Have a great Monday!

Sewing Saturday ~ Advice Needed!!! ~ 6/4/2022
My Weekly Bookishness ~ 6/3/2022
Angel expects nothing from men but betrayal. Sold into prostitution as a child, she survives by keeping her hatred alive. And what she hates most are the men who use her, leaving her empty and dead inside.
Then she meets Michael Hosea. A man who seeks his Father’s heart in everything, Michael Hosea obeys God’s call to marry Angel and to love her unconditionally. Slowly, day by day, he defies Angel’s every bitter expectation until, despite her resistance her frozen heart begins to thaw.
But with her unexpected softening come overwhelming feelings of unworthiness and fear. And so Angel runs. Back to the darkness, away from her husband’s pursuing love, terrified of the truth she can no longer deny: Her final healing must come from the One who loves her even more than Michael Hosea does…the One who will never let her go.
A life-changing story of God’s unconditional, redemptive, all-consuming love.

Weekly Weigh In ~ 6/1/2022
Once again (for the bazillionth time), I'm starting on a weight loss journey.
I had a gain of 1 pound this week.
We did a lot of traveling this weekend and eating out. It could have been a lot worse, I guess...
My check-up is Friday and I REALLY doubt that I'll be losing almost 5 lbs by then. So, I didn't make my goal weight in time. But, I'm just getting started!
I've lost over 15 pounds in roughly 10 weeks. That means I'm averaging a loss of 1.5 pounds per week. Pretty darn good, if I do say so myself.
I'm feeling motivated! Now to stay consistent :)
Next week I'll be sharing my new goals. Do you have any fitness goals for the Summer?
Highest Weight ~ 300.0 lbs
This Week's Weight ~ 5/30/2022 ~ 284.6 lbs.
This Week's Total: +1.0 lbs.
Grand Total: -15.4 lbs

Book Review ~ Fourth and Long by Liz Isaacson
What Brett doesn’t need is the reappearance of his ex-wife. Fiery Kate Donnely has come to Three Rivers to confess to Brett that they’re still married, and oh, he has a seven-year-old son she never told him about. At least not in letters she mailed.
Eight years ago, Kate left Oklahoma City only weeks after Brett’s first deployment, shamed because of her bad choices and the unborn child of a man she’d already asked for a divorce. She needs him to sign the papers now or she can’t have access to her hefty inheritance. But Brett absolutely does not want Kate to take his son away from him again.
They strike a deal: She’ll stay at Three Rivers for the summer so Brett can have the opportunity to get to know his son. How far will they have to go and how much will they have to forgive in order to become a family?
