Happy Wednesday! So excited about tonight at church, we are starting our mission meals up again tonight. This is a great time for families to go to church together and close the door on the wacky world for a little while. Studing Revelation, in the 6 chapter. We looked at the churches historically, devotionally, & prophetically; an amazing study!

Tips, Tricks, & Ideas:
SPOT CLEAN DRAPERY: Laundering curtains and drapes is not an easy chore, so instead of wrestling them down from the windows, just sprinkle some baby powder onto any dirty patches. Then use a clean dry toothbrush to rub the powder in before letting it sit for 10 min. Baby powder absorbs the moisture that makes dirt cling to curtains, so you can easily brush the powder and the grunge away.
Quick Cleaning tip: (A tip I came across on the web to share with you!)It never fails that just when you think the house is clean you find another spot
you've missed. This morning I reached for toilet tissue and noticed the holder
looked a little dull. Like a lot of people, I keep baby wipes on the back of the
toilet. Well, I pulled one out and wiped off the holder and what a beautiful
shine I got. Looking in the mirror I noticed a few toothpaste stains, so I
proceed to wipe it away with another baby wipe. I couldn't believe all the
pretty lint free shiny areas I cleaned in a matter of seconds with a single baby
wipe.
Quick Biscuits: There is no good way to freeze biscuit dough and still have
them taste good and fresh. Once the dough is mixed, without baking, the shelf life is limited, as the baking powder slowly becomes inactive. However, once baked, biscuits freeze well. When ready to eat them, defrost, sprinkle with water, and heat
in a medium oven for five minutes. They will not be as good as
fresh-baked, but almost.
This afternoon, I rescued a wild rabbit that was injured. Hoping to nurse it back to health. My daughter is going to be super excited since she is a major animal lover. Hope you all have a very blessed day~Tina
