Nah, you don’t need a deep fryer - just a good stainless steel saucepan (at least 8” deep). That is all I ever use!

You say!! Hmmmmmm I thought that would burn up in a jiffy. Thanks for the info!

Amazing Grace

by John Newton

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
.
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, .
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
.
Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
.
The Lord has promised good to me,
His Word my hope secures;
He will my Shield and Portion be,
As long as life endures.
.
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
.
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, Who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.
.
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT OUR TROOPS!

Dear God, who suffered
torment, agony and death upon the Cross
to free our souls from the chains of iniquity;
protect and defend our troops.
Guide them in the performance of
their Duties.
Strengthen them to endure hardship,
danger, and deprivation in
Your service.
Let their efforts free the people
of Iraq from the chains of terror
and slavery, foster a lasting peace
in the region, and bring all to a
greater share in Your mercy.
Amen.

THE NAVY HYMN

Eternal Father, Strong to Save

The Marine Corps Verse:

Eternal Father, grant we pray
To all Marines both night and day,
The Courage, Honor, Strength and Skill
Their Land to serve, Thy Law Fulfill.
Be Thou the Shield forevermore
From every peril to the Corps!

Have a Blessed Lord’s Day!

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

For All The Cat~People Of Amy's Place


Model Behavior





My Pretty One has what she likes to call her "Artistic Room"
And with such a phrase, you might think that it'd be as somber as a tomb
Though you would be wrong, for it is filled with such wonderful delights

Such as rows of lovely flowers all busily reaching for bright Sunlight
Which streams through the Room's clear ceiling and casts lovely shadows
Where I can watch what happens every day and no one ever knows

That I am not the only chaperon when My Pretty One plays with sticks
There's also a damp and shiny Bug who possesses many tricks
And lives in the dark loam of pots whose flowers reach for the sky

Sometimes he accompanies me while I seek out 'How?"s and "Why?"s
Or sits very still as My Pretty One plays with sticks and colors and stuff
Bathing us both with special attention, of which we cannot get enough

Welcome To Sunday At Amy's Place

Be still, My child, and know that I am God!
Wait thou patiently—I know the path you trod.
So falter not, nor fear, nor think to run and hide,
For I, thy hope and strength, am waiting by thy side.
—Hein

~Blessings To All Who Enter Here~
