My Thoughts:  Big Dreams, Big Prayers Bible for Kids has so many fab features I really don't know where to start.  I loved the Reading Plans, yes, that planS with an "S" as in not 1, not 2 but 3 Reading Plans.  The first is two week introductory reading plan with familiar readings and scriptures.  Did I mention, Big Dreams, Big Prayers Bible for Kids has 3 reading plans.  The 2nd Reading Plan is a bit more comprehensive than the first.  It's an  180-day reading plan featuring at least one chapter from every Bible book.  The 3rd Reading Plan is an in depth 3 year reading plan tackling every single word of the Bible which seeks to help the reader understand the Bible.  Love, love, love this feature!  

The colorful insets throughout Big Dreams, Big Prayers Bible for Kids provide commentary on How to Read the Bible, How to Pray and other common topics.  Each Bible book begins with a one page introduction answering some common "Who", "What" and "Why" questions providing a historical glance at the chapter.  The Word comes to life when you can apply it to your life and Big Dreams, Big Prayers Bible for Kids  features tools for applying biblical lessons to everyday life.  Great book!

Maple and Brown Sugar Air Fryer Bacon

I've been raving about my Instant Pot but now I have a new favorite... the Air Fryer.   O M G This thing is amazing!  I don't know why I was so late to the Air Fryer craze but I am so glad I am finally onboard.   I've been talking about getting one and then after my aunt posted pics of her new air fryer, that was it off to Best Buy I went.   I wasn't sure how big of a unit I would need but I figured the 2.5 liter would suffice.  I chose the Chefman Express.  It was priced on the shelves for $85 but online for $75.99 and my local store matched the price AND I had my Swagbucks Best Buy QR code so I got 500 SBs + 2 SBs for every dollar spent so that's another 170 SBs.  So, after discounts, my air fryer ended up costing me less than the sale price.  Woohoo! There were some fancy ones on the shelves with digital display but after checking the reviews I figured since I don't fry much this model would suffice. When I think of fried foods, I think

Trust me. I bought a 6’ Christmas tree WITH lights, 2 animal massagers, 3 Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser, Christmas cards and wrapping paper less than $20 during an after Christmas Walmart shopping trip. I was searching for some cough syrup when my friend’s kid spotted the Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser on sale for 50 cents. What a steal! The regular price is $10 so to find them on sale for 50 cents was a deal. We cleared the shelves. A few rows down we spotted some anima

A Pit Stop at Sho Nuff Hot Tamales in Greenville, Mississippi

My cousin and I were driving along and our tummies were rumbling as we crossed the Mississippi state line on US-82.  We didn't really have any particular dish in mind for lunch but we started seeing signs saying "Hot Tamales". "Hot Tamales", my Philly cousin asked. "Yep", I replied nonchalantly.  "I remember reading something about hot tamales being a big thing here in the Delta."   We kept driving and finally decided we would have to try these famous Mississippi Delta hot tamales. Now to decide which one.  There were literally dozens of tamale spots.  We happened upon a restaurant called Sho-Nuff and decided it was the one. We parked and entered the large, delightfully decorated restaurant.  The wall was plastered with local and national awards in recognition of those hot tamales.   There was a sign touting Sho-Nuff as the winner of the local newspaper's favorite restaurant award and 3rd place winner in the annual  Delta Hot Ta
