This was a great reminder of how much power we all share in the words we use and the words we hold safely in our hearts. I used to have a friend that always made me feel uneasy. It wasn't because I didn't enjoy the friendship but the fact that her spouse was very seldom mentioned in a Christian manner. She considered her marriage rock solid but I literally recoiled every time she threw out a discouraging word at her husband or about her husband when he wasn't present.
The friend has wandered off into the past and after the initial hurt, I look back and should have seen this coming. My only question, now, is how my reputation is faring in her discussions with current acquaintances.

When we are dismayed by the antics of the world . . .
"Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.”

Cheesy Popovers . . .
I made a vegetable soup for our Friday dinner but knew I'd need something to round out the meals and fill everyone up. I ran across many versions of this particular recipe but ended up doing it basically my way . . . and it was good!
Cheesy Popovers
3 cups tapioca flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup whole milk
3/4 cup oil (I like grape seed oil)
3 large eggs
1 generous cut freshly grated Romano or Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Use vegetable oil spray to grease mini-muffin tin generously.
Put all the ingredients into a blender and mix until well combined. The batter will be pourable. Fill the prepared muffin tin 2/3rds full of batter. Bake for approximately 15 minutes or until almost golden brown. They should puff up nicely.
Turn out of the pan and serve hot. Immediately respray the muffin tin and use up the rest of the batter. Believe me, if your family is like mine, the second batch will be ready just as they finish off the first one.
The nice thing about the recipe? No wheat flour so it fits in with our gluten-free choice of diet right now.
You could also try your own favorite cheese or a combination. I'm going with cheddar/Romano next time with a touch of cayenne in the batter.
