Isn't every Friday Good?
Isn't Every Friday Good?
Are you looking forward to a day off
tomorrow? Some people celebrate the holiday without remembering the real
meaning of Good Friday. Although the phrase "Good Friday" does not
appear in the Bible, Christians continue to celebrate the day set aside
by the Roman Catholic Church in the 4th Century A.D to commemorate the
crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ. Good Friday is also known as Holy
Friday in the Romance Languages. It is interesting to know it is only
called "Good" in the English Language. It is eye-opening to learn the
history behind the origin of Easter. Read about its pagan or ungodly
origin at christiananswers.net.
If you have received Jesus and accepted his free pardon of sin, you know the Friday before Resurrection Sunday is good because Christ gave his all for you, for us. Romans 5:8 "But God commandeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." John 15:13 "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."
Is Friday your favorite day of the week? Probably! Romans 14:5 says "One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind." I'm persuaded knowing Jesus as my Savior and realizing he was born and resurrected because he loves me, every day is Christmas and every Friday is "Good Friday"!

HAPPY RESURRECTION DAY!
What's your opinion? Do you recognize every Friday as Good and every day as Christmas?

Mom-ism Monday
Yep, it's Monday again! Here's a quick chuckle to brighten your day. Mom-ism #2 because some things are worth writing down...
My Mom, that's her over there, has two granddaughters (my kids). I remember her saying this to them before they could even understand what it meant. I understood it! I pulled it out of the old brain vault and used it today with my granddaughter. She was crying uncontrollably. I was losing my patience. She didn't understand it but the words got her attention and I got a brief moment of sanity.
The cute saying shoots straight just like my Mom...point blank! She's hardcore but no one loves us more.
Reminiscing,
Tammy

Healthy and Yummy Breakfast Smoothie
I am not a medical doctor. I am in no way suggesting this tonic will relieve any diseases or help in any way medically. |
I love this quick, healthy and yummy breakfast smoothie. My kids like it too!
I know, I know! You were excited about WINE being in the smoothie. Wine would be a healthy ingredient to add. Wine is packed full of heart-healthy antioxidants and reservatrol according to The Mayo Clinic. I serve the smoothie in a wine glass because it's extra pretty and inviting to drink!
Click for the printable recipe:
2 Heaping TBSPs Rice Protein Powder (burns fat)
1 TBSP Borage Oil (an inflammation reducing fatty acid)
2 scoops Nature's Sunshine Ultimate Greenzone (provides 1/2 your greens for the day)
1/2 cup frozen sweet dark red cherries (antioxidant)FYI I created this smoothie as a result of taking Nature's Sunshine Ultimate Greenzone. I just can't seem to eat as many veggies as I should per day. Tammy's Healthy Tonic is a delicious way to make sure you're eating your veggies, burning some fat and reducing your arthritis pain.
Bottoms up,
Tammy

Gluten-Free Chicken Alfredo
My husband LOVES alfredo sauce! I hate milk.
He has gluten sensitivity and lactose intolerance. I want to keep him feeling well which means he's less cranky (know what I mean?). He requested this favorite of his. I delivered! I used the ingredients pictured right down there to make this deliciousness gluten free and allmmoossttt (I'm stretching it) lactose free. I can vouch for him. I'm pretty sure he didn't experience any discomfort because I didn't hear nor smell any. :)
Is this the best Chicken Alfredo one has ever eaten? Probably not. Is it a very viable substitute of a favorite dish for a gluten and lactose sensitive individual? ABSOLUTELY! My husband enjoyed it or at least he said he did! Try it out and leave me a comment with your review.
