When Tragedy Strikes

When Tragedy Strikes
My heart is grieved over  tragedies this past week. My heart heavy for family members void of their children, spouses and friends.  Why Lord? What do we say to them? How do we respond? I'll never forget those who have ministered to us in our own tragedies.  It wasn't their words, it was their love and tears that spoke volumes. Sometimes no words are the best wo[...]

Fall Harvest- Yeast Bread from Grape Pulp- Fried Green Tomatoes
Fall is the busiest time on the Glasgow Farm. The harvest is plentiful but the laborers are few! We've got so many organic figs we don't know what to do them all.  If you live close, you can pick some up! They'll be coming in the whole month of September. You can freeze or can them for making Figgy pudding. Once you pick them, you've got to use them. They don't ha[...]

Elderberry Elixir- Flu and Virus Remedy
Elderberry is prolific on the Glasgow Farm. Our honey bees were in bee heaven early this summer with all the  Elderberry blossoms.

Loving Irregular Dads

Loving Irregular Dads
Do you have an irregular dad? I did. Most people assume that all dads are normal. Well, some are not normal according to the world’s standards. My dad was always different from other dads. He didn’t like crowds, so he didn’t come to special events such as award ceremonies, sports competitions, or even graduation. He was a man of few words, never saying “congrat[...]

If the springs run low the rivers waste; if they pour out bounteous currents the rivers are full. If the springs are pure the rivers are clear like crystal; if they are foul the rivers are defiled. A curse upo[...]
