I guess Thursday’s have become my catchup days! I’ve been a busy bee with Weir Delicious this month along with getting ready for baby:) Mom came this week for a couple days which is always a treat, we had so much fun sitting in the nursery and finishing up a few things that needed to be done.
I was actually doing all the sitting, she was mainly worker bee. My cookie business is shutting down shop after Halloween until we get settled with Bowen V and I really feel like it’s time. I am having to do a lot of sitting in the afternoon which makes making dough and rolling cookies a little challenging, I am sad to miss out on cute Christmas cookies but SO EXCITED for our angel boy to get here!!
I have to tell you this may be my favorite time of year in Fairhope, it’s breathtakingly beautiful. I went for a run (lots of walk breaks) then did my bible study at the Bay–it doesn’t get any prettier.
This season has been challenging but the Lord is teaching me to rest in Him and lay down those idols He has revealed to me that I place so much of my security in. He alone is my Rock and my Salvation. Bless His name that He doesn’t leave us in our sin but calls us to walk in freedom, in all fullness of joy.
Bump Update: 29 weeks today!!! Taking a selfie while exercising is not the easiest thing to do 😉
I wanted to share with you a “nice-cream” recipe I had today, this was a great afternoon pick me up and definitely satisfied my sweet tooth.
It’s chocolate-ly and rich and a great use for those cacao nibs I’ve been wanting to use!
- 1 frozen banana
- 2 T high quality cocoa powder
- 3 T cacao nibs
- 1/2 cup kefir (or greek yogurt)
- splash of water
- 1 small handful of kale
- 1 cup frozen berries
- Blend until smooth!
