Welcome

I would love to invite you into my home to have a cup of tea with me. We could sit in my sunny kitchen and talk about all the things that are going on in our lives. I could share with you the news I hear from my grown daughters. How my grandkids are growing. We could laugh together over the funny things that they have said. It would be fun to share the ins and outs of our family life, and talk about our latest creative projects. We could share what God has been teaching us, in our personal lives, and encourage each other on this walk of faith. We could pray together, laugh together, and even cry together. Since most of us will never be able to sit down together face to face, I would like to invite you to join me here. So come on in and have a cup of tea with me.

What's for Dinner?

This week we have a group visiting us from Battlefield Baptist Church.  I have enjoyed getting to know them all better, and I have enjoyed cooking for them some.  Yesterday for dessert, I made them one of my family's all time favorites. So I thought I would share the recipe with you.  I got this recipe from a friend, years ago in Quito.

Frozen Mocha Cheesecake

24 Oreos, crushed
1/4 cup margarine, melted
combine and press into a buttered 9x13 inch baking dish.  Chill

1 cup of whipping (heavy) cream, whipped and sat aside

8 oz of cream cheese, softened
14 oz of sweetened condensed milk
2/3 cup chocolate syrup
2 tablespoons of instant coffee
1 teaspoon of hot water
In large mixer bowl, beat cheese until fluffy, add milk and chocolate syrup.
In small bowl, dissolve coffee in water, (will be thick).
Add to cheese mixture.  Mix well.
Fold in whipped cream.  Pour into prepared pan.  Cover and freeze 6 hours or overnight.

Garnish with additional cookie crumbs and/or chocolate syrup.
