Sunday's Sermon and Featured

I wanted to share one of my favorite scriptures from the Book of Mormon today:

“Now ye may suppose that this is foolishness in me; but behold I say unto you, by small and simple things are great things brought to pass; … and by very small means the Lord doth confound the wise and bringeth about the salvation of many souls.”
Alma 37:6-7

It is great to know that those that continually try to be better can achieve the fullness of the gospel and eternal life...what a great blessing.

On another note. Small and simple things on my part are slowly bringing my dream of having a successful blog to past.

I was featured today on the blog Fireflies and Jellybeans for my Banana Pops. Check it out here.

Freezer Friday

I am always looking for snack ideas for my kids. If I don't keep it creative, then they always revert to wanting fruit snacks.

So, here is an easy fun solution with SO many possibilities...

Banana Pops
What you will need:
Banana's Cut in Half
Your Choice of Yogurt
Your Choice of Toppings: Rice Cripsies, chocolate chips, smashed graham crackers, smashed cereal, nuts, or anything else you can think of.
Popsicle Sticks

Here were my cast of characters:


Start by peeling your banana, placing a Popsicle stick inside and then rolling it in your yogurt.


Roll into your topping.


Place in Freezer Bags. I chose to freeze them two at a time because I have two kids and I know I will thaw them two at a time. You could wrap them individually in Freezer wrap.

What I love about this snack, the possibilities are endless.

Pioneer Woman's Ranch Style Chicken

I have been wanting to try this Chicken for a while. My picture may not be as perfect as her for lack of photography skills, but it sure was a delicious meal. Even the husband praised it (which seems to happen very little). Another idea that she had...Put it on a Kaiser Roll and it would make a wonderful lunch.

For the full recipe, go here to the Pioneer Woman Cooks.

A couple of notes: I HATE and when I mean Hate....I really do Hate mustard. I can't stand it, but in this recipe, it just gives flavor. It does not taste like mustard or else I wouldn't have eaten it. I also used lime juice cause I didn't have lemon juice. It worked out great.

Army Cake

Last week my friend asked me to do an Army Cake for her Son's Birthday. It was a lot of fun to make. The best part about it was that it wasn't stressful. When you are creating dirt, you don't have to be perfect. I baked two round cakes, one 9 x 13 and 12 mini cupcakes. I didn't want it to look like the shape of a 9 x 13 so I cut jagged pieces and placed mini cupcakes upside down to look like boulders.

What do you think?

Sunday's Sermon

This is one of my favorite scriptures. It speaks for itself.

“My grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them” (Ether 12:27).
