I have been challenged recently by this thought “Work with what you have.” It is a daily challenge to make the best use of what we have been given. In addition to work with what we have, the challenge is also to be content with what we have been given and not always seeking something more; the greener pasture, what someone else has, focusing on what we do NOT have or what we can NOT do etc.
Today, I am thankful and humbled by the blessings G-d has given to us and these include providing good foods for us. I wanted to share with you what is in my kitchen today.
What's in my hands?
This morning I:
~ Picked wild blueberries and had a time of prayer. Then I made whole wheat blueberry pancakes.
Wild organic blueberries
~ Went to the garden and picked cabbage, kale and zucchini. I used them in my Chicken and Veggie Stir Fry.
~ Rinsed and drained my growing organic sprouts. I used some in my scrambled eggs.
~ Removed the fruit from the dehydrator that had been drying overnight. I vacuum-sealed some for long-term storage and left some for snacking.
~ Snipped the organic chocolate mint patches and made a mint infusion by muddling the mint leaves in pure water and placing it in the fridge to steep. I dehydrated the rest to have for mint teas.
~ I dehydrated the kale and zucchini and vacuum-sealed them for long-term real food storage.
What is in your hands today? What do you have that you are working with?
