Another new baby in the church nursery means another new meal to prepare and another recipe to try out! It’s summer in Texas after all so that also means no one is eager to spend too much time standing over a hot stove or heating up the house with the oven either. The best solution…

Y’all, the heat this weekend was intense. With a high of 98° with a heat index of 107°, one couldn’t help but sleep off the afternoon heat and do the laundry later in the day when it cooled off a little. The afternoon baking had to wait until evening as well so as not overwhelm…
