Tell me why in your comment please. And if you don't why don't you? Blessings, Tulip P.S. I wear skirts everyday and the reason I do is because I feel more feminine that way, and I feel it's the kind of clothing the Lord wants me to wear.  My skirts always come below my knees, also. http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/TulipsCorner/747189/ Tue, 24 Nov 2009 12:22:00 -0600 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/TulipsCorner/747189/ Dear readers, I have been inspired to write a book!  I hope to get it published soon.  My mother has edited it so maybe it won't be long!  I have also written the second in the series that mom has to edit so maybe that will be out soon also. A little about the book This book is based in a small town on Prince Edward Island, Canada during 1900's.  Why would you base a story in Canada, you may ask?  Well as you can see from the title of this entry I was inspired.  My inspiration came from Lucy Maud Montgomery's books.  If you are not familiar with her name you might remember the book called "Anna of Green Gables" and many others in the Anne series?  Well I loved the way she wrote them and where they were based so as I said, I was INSPIRED!  Well this book is based on the island of P.E.I.  where most of the Montgomery books were based.  It all begins though in Ireland with a young girl who has a lost twin brother and mother.  Her father lives in a lighthouse on P.E.I. and has requested her to come and live with him,  the father did not abondend the girl but sent her to live with a family friend who took care of him when his mother died.  She is 16 and travels to P.E.I. with the protection of a sailor who is a friend of her father's and her's.  I hope to get this out to all of you very soon and if I can not publish it as an ebook I will post a chapter every few weeks for you to read.  I hope that these books further your faith in the Lord.  I also hope that they will be a blessing to you.

My favorite that I have had so far is the "Delux waffles".  Here is how you make them:   Ingrediants 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons white sugar 4 egg yolks 4 egg whites 1 1/4 cups milk 1/2 cups vegetable oil   Instructions 1 In a large bowl sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.  Make a well in  the center of the bowl. 2  In a seperate bowl, mix together the egg yolks, milk, and oil.  pour into well of flour mixture and stir well.  Stir just until ingredients are moist. 3  In a small bowl mix together egg whites until stiff.  Fold into batter. 4 cook batter in waffle iron. This last step I added because it is so important! 5 EAT! And enjoy! You can also put chocolate chips in the batter or on top afterwards.  This is a favorite for me and my sister!  My mom really likes Blueberries in hers, so you can do that too.  You can really put anything you like in or on these wonderful waffles!  Enjoy!

This is a wonderful guide to young girls that have always wondered about this passage and what it means you can stop by and read about its the step by step guide to these wonderful verses. You can also get blog buttons like these. You will find these and more here  http://apounderingheart.com/blog/?p=862     Hope you can find these things and others. #2 This is another thing that I love so much.  It's is a simple, yet not rude, and it tells others that I may not post things that they agree with but that doesn't mean that I should stop posting about it.  I believe that this is a good thing for all to do because even though we may all believe in some of the same things we might not dig as deep as others. #3 There is so much more about this blog and one of the newest things I have seen on it is this " Modesty checklist ". This is a wonderful guide to modest choices and to help you know when it is time to throw out things.  I really think that it is good to be modest and I will tell about that in one of my later posts.           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I hope that these few things will help you to understand her better, and also to find great other things on her blog. Please be sure to browse her blog for more great things!

PRESCRIPTION FOR A FRIEND Things you need: 1.  An old prescription bottle like you would use in the old times ( like a glass one)  or a recent one you have used 2.  small candies, nuts, or dried fruits 3. A label 4.  A pen Instruction Take your bottle and clean it well in warm or hot soapy water.

Hy girls I hope that you are ready for some more updates on these books cause your about to hear some. Well to get to the point My family was listening to AFR in the car and we heard some disturbing news.  The Twilight books and the movie have become popular in the teen world.  Many people called in and was talking about why they chose not to let there teens read or watch these things.  One of these times a man called in and said that he had two girls and that he went to see the movie just to see what it was about and he said that he saw something that was of the devil you could say.  He told the people about a scene that the ( quote ) vampire  was in went out into the sun. Now he said that he had seen these kind of movies before and he said that when a vampire came out into the sun that he would catch on fire, but instead of this the vampire opened his shirt and there were jewels all over him and he said that this was who he really was.  Now the man said that in the bible there was something in there that the devil does the same thing. Now if that is not enough to make you sick then listen to this, one of the people hosting the talk show had went to the movie to see if it was something bad or good.  Now there was a scene that made also made him uneasy.  There was a scene that was the vampire house, he said that the house was like nothing you had ever seen before,  and on one of the entrance hall walls there was a cross.  Now he said that  it symbolized that they had conquered the cross ( or God )!   Now these are really popular among girls but boys also like it,  they also told on the talk show that the girl and ( quote ) vampire  that were in love was not based on the love that Christ wanted but appearances and looks.  So I hope that known of these books or movies may come into your home, mind, or soul. praying for others, Tulip http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/TulipsCorner/673440/ Thu, 30 Apr 2009 09:34:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/TulipsCorner/673440/ Hey girls,  just wanted to tell you that I am going to post some awards on my blog soon and even though you may have them I might give them to you.   So be prepared to get awarded!  Now you must understand that I may not get on for quite some time but I did make a commitment that I attend to keep.  So I hope that you will understand that at this time of year it is really difficult for me.  You may also be a little busy so I hope that you will be able to understand.  Thanks so much!
