The Disembodied Hand – A Halloween Story
So you like a spooky story, do you? Well, I’ve got just what the creepy doctor ordered. We’ll be reading straight from the fifth chapter of Daniel. Of course, I’m just dying to add some commentary here and there, but I’ll put my thoughts in italics to make double dog sure there’s no misunderstanding. Once upon a time in a land for away a royal named
Beware, the Incremental Fade…
I couldn’t tell you how I found the first article if my life depended on it. Those Internet rabbit chases can sneak up on a person. A belle can be looking up a recipe one minute and watching video of a water skiing squirrel the next. Don’t act like you haven’t done it. I may have been born at night, but it wasn’t last night. As
Tyler Perry in the Southern Quote
He was born Sept. 14th 1969 in New Orleans, LA. His mother was a preschool teacher who took him to church and walked the talk. His father was a carpenter who abused him throughout his childhood.

Shellie’s Southern Pecan Pie Cake
Hello folks and welcome back to the All Things Southern kitchen! We’re making my Southern Pecan Pie, Cake. I know. I just thought it’d be a fun name.

I’ll show you! “Shellie’s Southern Pecan Pie Cake” 4 large eggs 1 cup softened butter 2 cups brown sugar 1 cup all purpose
Buford and Lou Ann Party Down
I’ve always heard it said that opposites attract, and I believe it. For starters, I could offer you the evidence of my enduring love affair between me and my farmer. His quiet ways are a blessed counterpoint for my loud personality and his life-long habit of thinking things through has saved my jump-first-ask-questions later hide more times than a few. But, I’ve seen the principle
Uncle Stan Expands His Business
Hello folks, let’s chat… Good news for all of you Aunt Marleta fans. She and Uncle Stan were in our neck of the woods recently. I dropped by Mama and Papa’s to have coffee with the whole crew.

I've asked God for wisdom with as much sincerity as I know how to muster. I thought I needed more answers to proceed. I've known the when and the why. The how, who, what and with whom were blanks.

Behold the Lamb
I’m writing to you from my favorite spot on the back porch. I can see the little blue nylon tent from here. The wind is threatening to tote it to the lake right now and I’m tempted to let it. I’m at odds with that silly tent. Its story has continued to unfold from the day I pulled it out of the carrier it came
