Looking In the Window: Sharing a Favorite Bible Verse and a Recipe

NOURISH THE BODY--NOURISH THE SOUL
A FAVORITE FOR THE BODY


Mother’s Macaroni and Cheese

Ingredients: Elbow macaroni noodles, cheese, milk, eggs, salt and pepper to taste, margarine or butter (optional)
Greased casserole dish. (I use olive oil)
The amount of noodles determines the number of servings. To serve four, prepare enough noodles for four.
Drain noodles. Fill a one-cup measuring cup with the cooked noodles and pour them one at a time into the greased casserole dish.
Measure exactly as many cups of grated cheese as there are noodles. (For example four cups of noodles and four cups of cheese) Cheeses can be all one kind or mixed—2 cups of cheddar, 1 cup of Monteray jack, 1 cup of Colby. Use what you like. If there are extra noodles, save them for another dish. The amount of cheese must equal the amount of noodles.
Beat an egg. Stir into noodles and cheese. (Egg Beaters can be used)
Pour milk into the casserole dish until it’s almost even with the mixture of cheese, noodles and eggs.
Salt and pepper to taste.
Completely cover the top of the macaroni and cheese with more grated cheese. Dot with margarine or butter if desired.
Bake on 350 degrees about forty-five minutes or until the entire casserole is firm.

Romans 8: 28, “And we know that in all thing God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”

Is that your mother? She's beautiful! And I always loved my own mom's homemade mac & cheese, no store bought already-in-a-box. But I couldn't even begin to tell you how she did it! LOL

Hi Miss Mae,

Can't wait to try your mother's recipe, Gail. I LOVE Mac & Cheese! Thanks so much for sharing. Loved the Bible verse, too. It's one of my favorties.

Hi Anne,
Thanks so much for stopping by. We all love my mother's macaroni and cheese. I think you will too.
Hi Gail: Can I include a recipe of mine and Betty Crocker's if I don't locate a recipe of Mom's? I'm sure I have some of her recipes but if I can't find an appropriate one I'd include her photo anyway and a favorite Bible verse of mine.

That sounds great, Larry! Thanks for stopping by.

Gail, I love your unique idea. The mac and cheese recipe made my mouth water, and the scripture verse nourished my soul.

What more can a body ask for?

Looking Out the Window: Memories on the Heart

Several weeks ago my husband, Rick, and I ate at a restaurant we frequent fairly regularly. The cute, young waitress who usually waits on us took our orders for burgers and fries. I’ll call her Mandy. As usual Mandy’s smile and bubbly personality brightened our day. We giggled and confessed to her that we shouldn’t eat the fries, but we were going to do it just this once. She joked. “Okay, you’re being bad today.” Not long after we got our food a couple came in and sat in the booth behind us. Mandy walked up to the table with her big grin. “Hi, how are you?” she asked. The man, who had salt and pepper colored hair and a pudgy face, spoke in a harsh tone, “I want the steak.” “Sure, which one would you like?” Mandy asked. “I don’t want you to put it in the microwave. That will make it tough. Do you understand?” Mandy’s lips turned down. “Yes sir, which one do you want to order?” “I want it medium rare. I don’t want blood oozing out of it. I want it cooked right.” “Yes sir, which steak di

It's my pleasure.  I’m happy to share with you a Bible verse and a recipe, and tell you about my newest book! One of my favorite Bible verses is Romans 10:9.  “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” I love this verse because it distills down the message of Christianity to its simplest elements. So often people add to the gospel, but it really all comes down to our belief in Jesus’ saving work on the cross. This verse tends to make its way into my writing. It’s in my latest novel, Moonlight and Mystery, when the heroine, Beth attends a carnival at a
