Promises are Promises

What day, what a week! Definitely a Whoa Nelly Week, but a good one, like many of you said you had.

But I want to take a minute here and make a promise. A promise to myself.

I promise to……..

Stop and enjoy the ride…..and journey

Keeping hoping……and dreaming

Savor each bite…..and flavor (of life)

Be real…..be true (each day)

 God was whispering these to me all week. It was so obvious!
Yet, it took me a while to hear Him. All the “noise” of life was in the way. I had to stop, sit, and listen.

Whoa….I hear ya God. I want those promises!

And then I could hear Him tugging at my heart saying…..

 “ Look, you can have them. You just have to start BELIEVING in them. Now GO LIVE them!”

Enjoy the Journey
I’m leaving, on a jet plane, to go watch the hubs race!

Oven Baked Jalapeno Lamb Cheese Burger

Ingredients:
  • 1 lb. organic ground lamb (I usually find this in the frozen section of health stores- on sale!)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp flax meal
  • 2-3 tbsp GF bread crumbs ( millet bread works really well grounded up)
  • chili powder (1/2 tsp)
  • Garlic/sea salt/black pepper (a dash or two of each)
  • 1/4 to 1/3 cup jalapeno slices (canned or fresh)
  • sweet chili ketchup or salsa
  • white cheddar cheese
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400F. combine all your ingredients into one large mixing bowl (all beside the ketchup and cheese). Shape into patties. Place on cookie sheet with foil underneath. Bake middle rack for about 15-20 minutes. Then check the patties. I checked around 15 minutes. If almost done, place cheese on top and bake again for 2 minutes, then broil for another 2 minutes or so. Each oven is different, so be sure to keep an eye on the meat! Then toast and butter your GF bun, add the sweet chili salsa/ketchup on top of your patty, EAT and SAVOR!

What promises have you made to yourself lately?


Cheers and good luck to all those racing!!
