the quiet

The house is quiet, my younger son is on his xbox talking to friends. I hate that xbox! But here I sit. In the Quiet. Nothing on my mind but feeling at Peace.

I guess things could be worse. In 10 minutes I will have to deal with the yelling as I try to pry him away. But for now, quiet.

Broccoli Casserole

Straight from the Quaker Kitchen...lol. Ok, not really 'Quaker', i just like to say it. Here is a tasty broccoli casserole. Its very very easy to make and though it's not the healthist way to eat broccoli, I got my kids to eat them.

So here you go.

Broccoli Casserole

2 c. broccoli or 1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen
1/4 lb. Velveeta cheese
4 tbsp. butter or margarine
12 butter crackers, crumbled

First Cook and drain the broccoli. Melt the cheese and half of the butter. Then Mix it with the broccoli. Place in greased baking dish. Melt remaining butter and mix with crumbled crackers. Sprinkle crumbs on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Serves 3-4.

Now Enjoy

That's it, pretty easy!!!

do not seek for love

Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it

As a seeker, I often at times wonder what the heck am I actually seeking for. Do I seek the truth, or do I seek other seekers?

Or am I merely seeking the word of God?

I was at meeting yesterday when these thoughts popped into my little brain. What is it do I seek? When I look at my life it is not so much about seeking but more about changing, looking at myself and the walls that I have built as for fear of being hurt.

Where did these walls come from? Why do these barriers enter into my heart when I know that I am capable of letting Gods love through the human spirit day after day.

I always considered myself an open person, but yet I shy away from people that I am not that familiar with? I wonder what my barrier is, what can I possible be afraid of? It does feel like fear.

Maybe I have it all wrong and what I have been seeking has been with me the whole time, trust.

I quit!

well guys, I am offically fried. I have been opening shops on zazzle, zibbett, esty, bonzale, artsnow and started my own websites. Even tried ebay for a tad.

I just cant keep going. I have decided to close up shop.

The reality is, on all the hard work I did, the only site that actually brought in the bucks was zazzle.

So I have decided to close all other shops. Its just not worth the energy.

By trying to promote a ton of shops, if I put all my energy into the zazzle shops, then who knows what can happen.

The reality is, promoting sucks, and thats why i joined these other sites thinking I can get past all the bull shit, but you know what, you just cant. There are no shortcuts.

So, by the end of January, I will have closed up shop.

Now, I also used artsnow for products, as the old saying goes, 'you get what youu pay for', i decided to order some products that I have created and when I got them delievered, I just couldn't believe how cheap they were, so I will no longer be using their service anymore.

So there you go folks, by the end of Januray, all stores will be closed except for zazzle.
