Guiding Light

It's a crazy world out there, and emotions are running high! However one of those emotions is the love I am beginning to feel for finding faith and God in my life. Reading back over my previous post, I understand now, that He was talking to me, saying it's not right, and I knew it. I decided to make a move that was very hard by letting go of the possibility at a relationship with this friend, which actually enlightened me in ways you would not believe! He then, of course is now begging for my attention, but I keep explaining to him that it's wrong and he needs to live his life and then let God handle the rest. In the process of finding this faith and allowing myself to love Him, I am meeting people that make me feel amazing about myself and that all the wrongs I have done will be forgiven. To have this sense of fulfillment has been the missing link in my life. I was always scared to being attending church for the thought of being judged by others for all my misdoings and the possibility of being struck by lightning as I walked through the doors. I know now that isn't true, and that there are so many people out there filled with the same purest type of love that I should have in my life. I can't wait to travel the journey He will take me on and continue to learn and get to know Him better. Even though I know it hurts someone else, I know in the long run, it is also best for him, and that one day, he will understand.

Blue Plate Monday's

I'm a little late for Blue Plate Monday, my internet wasn't cooperating, but still wanted to share! Today I'm thinking icky sweet things about the way my life is happening and suddenly turning around. The people I have gotten close with in a very short time that are helping me find my way to faith. So therefore, today's recipe is sticky, gooey, and melts in your mouth.

Monkey Bread

3 cans butter flavored biscuits
2 cups sugar
3 T. cinammon
stick melted butter

Preheat oven to 350. You will need a bunt cake pan also. mix the sugar and brown sugar together, I don't really measure, so the above may not be quite right. The mixture should be pretty brown though. Melt the butter in a dish. Pick apart the biscuits one by one, rolling them into balls, you should be able to get about 3 balls per biscuit. Dip each ball in the butter and roll in sugar mixture, then place in the bunt pan. Keep doing this, just stacking them all on top of each other and filling in the gaps as you go until they are gone. Pour any leftover butter you may have on top. (if you used it all, melt a little more just for this part) And sprinkle any leftover sugar mix on top as well. Bake at 350 for about 45 mins or until you can stick a toothpick well down into it w/o having any dough on the toothpick when you pull it out. Turn over onto a plate and release all the buttery sugar filled goodness. Pick apart with your fingers if you like, makes a great snack to sit on the counter.
