This is a simple yet classy and delicious brunch dish or dessert. Pair these Shortcakes with fresh seasonal berries and fresh whipped topping! Recipe below!!!

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

4 tbsp Sucanat
1 1/2 cups heavy (whipping) cream

Whipped topping

1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.  Add cream and stir just until dough forms a soft ball.

2. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface,. Using your hands, knead 2 or 3 times to form a smooth ball. Gently pat or roll dough into a circle about 1/2 to 3/4 inch (1 to 2 cm) thick. Using a biscuit cutter ot knife, cut into rounds or squares. Collect scraps, reroll and cut until dough is used up.

3. Arrange biscuits on baking sheet or preheated stone, spacing about 1 inch (2.5 cm) apart. Brush lightly with melted butter, if using. Bake in preheated oven for 10 - 12 minutes, until golden brown. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Healthy Living!

Well, it has been a while since I last posted! Sorry about that!

I want to share my 'get healthy' and 'lose weight' journey that I am on!

I started my journey in the latter part of July 2014. To date, I have lost 39 pounds.

Now, was it easy? Nope! But I was experiencing some health issues and tired all the time and I had mentally decided it was time to get serious about my health and do something!

I prayed ALOT through this journey and still do. I know that is the only way I have been successful. We can ask God to give us strength and convict us of our unhealthy habits but if we are not willing to surrender to the conviction he places upon us then you won't suceed.

Phillipines 4:13 says 'I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength'

If you are struggling with an addiction cling to this verse and ask God to help.

My addiction was food, specifically sweets (chocolate cake and brownies!)

Next time on the blog will be my eating plan details so stay tuned!

Distress in our lives

As I sit here and review the last week, I feel down. I recently resigned from my positions in my Church where I have been a member and served for over 25 years. Stress and Burn out are very real things. I am dealing with these things now. I have been praying for a few years for God to guide my path and give a clear vision of what he has for my future. Stepping down and departing the church was his response. Though not and easy task on my part it was emotional. But I believe God has plans for me, Jeremiah 29:11 says for I know the Plans I have for you saith the Lord. They are not plans to harm or destruct you. Don't be held captive by stressful situations and burn out. Give them God and ask for his guidance and direction.
