This is just a random post about a keeper at home item from my day. And sharing how I used some garden produce.
My dear little one year old niece helped me pick and shell the broad beans. Some of them had little teeth marks in them afterward:-) So sweet! I had to half open them for her but then she did well and put them where I told her to. And once she got the idea that we weren't sitting down to eat them, she took her job very seriously and kept at it till the end.
I boiled the beans.
Fried leeks from the garden and onions. Added some beef, celery, and carrots from the garden.
Added mushrooms and the cooked beans. Then I flavoured with garlic, soy sauce, cumin, pepper etc. And added some cream and corn flour to make it a bit creamy.
This is not a real recipe but just sharing a bit from my day and about the blessing of home grown vegetables.
- a quick and simple stir-fry for dinner with carrots, beans and leeks from the garden.
I told my family I hoped it tasted alright. I had a cold, so I couldn't taste too well; not the best for when you are making a meal from scratch. Praise God for the sense of taste!
Rejoice in the work we can do as keepers at home wherever the Lord has us. And thank Him for His provisions.
"And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;"
(1 Thessalonians 4:11)
I hope and pray all who read are standing strong in the faith.
"Praise ye the Lord. I will praise the Lord with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright, and in the congregation.The works of the Lord are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.
His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
He hath made his wonderful works to be remembered: the Lord is gracious and full of compassion.
He hath given meat unto them that fear him: he will ever be mindful of his covenant.
He hath shewed his people the power of his works, that he may give them the heritage of the heathen.
The works of his hands are verity and judgment; all his commandments are sure.
They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.
He sent redemption unto his people: he hath commanded his covenant for ever: holy and reverend is his name.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever." (Psalm 111)
