Simply Balanced

My prayer this New Year was for God to make me balanced, simply balanced. 

balanced in prayer, 

balanced in parenting, 

balanced in love, 

balanced in money, 

balanced in pleasure and 

balanced in eating and drinking. 

There are no huge goals to reach, no steep hills to climb- just a daily awareness of balance in my life. 

As part of my balancing act I am going to start utilizing the backyard garden. The compost is started, the ground is just about ready. My mission is to provide my family with at least 80% of a natural diet and successfully grow our own fruits and veggies in the back garden. Lots and lots of new recipes to try out and share!
