Friday, July 20, 2012. Pining and Pinning Pinterest. July 2012 Provident Living Column. What a great age we live in. If it doesn’t replace them, you can at least get recommendations on what to read and watch from cyber friends whose opinion you value! From Pinterest I’ve learned more about things I already had a passion for, like sprouting seeds, making soap, and ways to save money (as well as spend it! Here is a recent recipe I found for a gourmet tinfoil dinner:. Foil-Pack Chicken and Broccoli Dinner.

Sunday, February 26, 2012. The Name of the Game is Connecting to People. Blanding's Last Quilting Bee? Recently while quilting with eight other ladies at what may possibly have been the last quilting bee in Blanding, we began reminiscing about the “good old days.”. Eventually the topic turned to games we used to play when we were young, with families and friends before computer based technology started fragmenting lives and reducing interaction with real people. Merging research regarding “media-so...

Friday, June 8, 2012. 8220;Inebriate of Air am I”. Thanks, Emily Dickinson. Dickinson like William Blake loved nature and found in it, metaphors from which to extrapolate eternal truths. Blake pointed to nature when he wrote:. To see a World in a Grain of Sand. And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,. Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand. And Eternity in an hour. Hence my new found appreciation for mallow. Honesty, Hope, Trust in God, Humility, and Truth help prepare our soul for change. Adding the “l...Update ...

ProvidentPonderings: If you think you can, you can
http://providentponderings.blogspot.com/2012/09/if-you-think-you-can-you-can.html
Saturday, September 8, 2012. If you think you can, you can. Besides canners, food dryers and steamers are part of the preservation process. Canning season is upon us, and this year has already been a bumper crop for produce in Blanding. The provident person will make sure they capitalize on the opportunity to not only eat and enjoy, but can and dry everything possible while the opportunity is here. Often there is a late spring freeze and we are not blessed with so much fruit. Pick pears while they are st...

Thursday, January 5, 2012. Going Green this Year. Provident Ponderings Jan. 2012. Many of us give lip service to “green leafy vegetables” but shun letting them cross our plate or palate. There is probably no other single category of food that could change our lives for the better this year, than adding generous portions of “greens” to our diet. Recently I started sprouting seeds again in an effort to get the necessary “greens” for optimal health this winter. Value of sprouts is remarkable. Growing sprout...

Friday, September 28, 2012. What did you do when the lights went out? Provident Ponderings October 2012. Did you learn anything from that experience? Know where your candles, lamps, flashlights, batteries, and solar lights are before it gets dark. I remembered to use my solar lights this time, and found them easily! And thus didn’t have to worry about all the other light sources. It’s a good idea to have extra solar batteries on hand as well. Have a read around –pass the flashlight or solar light a...

Sunday, July 24, 2011. Families - Isn't it About Time. Families are the compass that guide us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights, and our comfort when we occasionally falter. Hallelujah for summer - a time for family reunions and fun! You don't have to go to exotic beaches, or distant states to have a terrific family reunion. It will surely be a reunion long remembered and cherished. Our Granddaughter Laurie won a blue ribbon this year at the Tooele County Fair. This was her first quilt...

Thursday, November 3, 2011. Hoarding Addictions: How to Straighten Up and Come Clean. 8220;What in the crap is this? And why did she/he save it? Thus begins another Halloween Horror story. Nightmare on Elm Street. May actually be on your street, or in your own house or garage. You’ve probably uttered such questions yourself. Your children will likely have the same outburst, at some future day when they have to clean out. Die –- unless the tradition of hoarding is broken. I remember when my dad died.
