My Favorite Pre-Mixed/Packaged Side Dishes

Nobody's Perfect!

I'll let you in on a secret this morning. I cannot make good cornbread or biscuits from scratch. So, I have found some great alternatives if I need cornbread or biscuits with a meal. And I love pasta salad, and Betty Crocker has a kit that I love. It's easy and I prefer it over trying to gather ingredients separately.

Martha White Buttermilk Cornbread Mix

I love the way this cornbread turns out. And I do not use buttermilk. I use regular milk to make it with. Follow the instructions on the package for a delicious side dish or to make homemade cornbread salad. You should be able to find this in the baking aisle at your local grocer or Walmart.

Pillsbury Grands Frozen Biscuits

These are found with the other frozen breads. I prefer the buttermilk or southern style over the butter tastin' biscuits. Biscuits are greasy enough without adding all that butter (or whatever they're using for the butter flavor) to the mix. So, if you want a less greasy taste, stick with the 2 I mentioned above.

Betty Crocker Pasta Salad Mix

I love pasta as a side dish, and Betty Crocker makes this so easy. The company sells many different flavors. My family's favorite flavor is ranch and bacon. You can eat it warm or serve refrigerated. This is usually found in the same aisle as other pastas.

Love Never Fails

 After Saul (Paul) was converted from Judaism, in which he was a trained priest, to Christianity on the road to Damascus, he spent a few years learning how to be a better person for God's new work in Christ. After God prepared him, Paul started preaching the Good News to people in different cities. One of those cities was Corinth in Greece. When Paul needed to correct - or praise - some teachings of the churches that were established in these cities but couldn't get back to them right away, he would write them letters. One of these letters (often called epistles) is called I Corinthians in the Holy Bible.  The message I want to bring to your attention today is what Paul was telling this church about love. He told them in verse 16:14 to, " Do everything with love. " (NLT) The NKJV read as, " Let all that you do be done with love. " What a difference we could make in the world if we could all follow this beautiful advice.  In the same Book of I Corinthians 13:

New Elderly Tips

I have added some elderly tips  to my Senior Care Memoirs website. We all have a senior in our family, such as a parent or grandparent. Or we see elderly people while we're shopping. They deserve to feel respected and independent. So, I have added these new tips as some helpful advice. Watch for posts to be added to the Senior Care Memoirs site more frequently as new stages evolve in my senior family members' lives.  I hope you enjoy these tips and other upcoming posts. Together, we can figure this out. We're going to fill our blank canvas with helpful information. I won't be posting any future updates to the other site here, so you will want to bookmark it if you're interested in reading this type of information. Thanks for stopping by today.
