Wine Glazed Beef Shortribs …
I’ve done short ribs a million ways it seems and they are always delish! In fact, as long as you cook short ribs for 90 minutes to 2 hours, it’s pretty hard to screw them up. Just don’t over or under season them.
This time, I decided to try something different – a short cut to my short ribs… Continue reading “Wine Glazed Beef Shortribs …”

Food For Your Soul…..
In July of this year, my mom stopped by my house after visiting with my aunt who was recently diagnosed with cancer. I shared with my mom that I had a song for my aunt for her healing. Shortly after I spoke those words, I felt a great sense of urgency to get moving on recording it. I was inspired to record songs of faith for healing – as I inclined my ear to God’s voice, I was directed exactly how to complete the project…. So much so, that my husband and I had a dreamy vacation planned and paid, we were checked into our flights, but the morning of – could not go. I was so disappointed, I had been looking forward to the trip for months… but the days and weeks that followed….. (exhale…….) a whirlwind of intimate time with God, I had to be alone with Him as never before, instead of spending a week on the ocean, I ended up spending the week in His presence. I inclined my ear to His voice and the outcome is “Be Healed”, songs for faith and healing. What I did not know, is that I too, would be ministered to by these songs for my own healing, but HE knew and I am grateful.
If you or someone you love is in need of healing, get “Be Healed”.
