“Why do you cut the ends off the ham before you put it in pan?”, asked the young daughter-in-law. “Because my mother always cut the ends off of the ham before she put it in the pan to bake, and it always tasted amazing.”, replied the mother-in-law. “But why?” she persisted. The son, being the…
Have you ever heard ‘live within your means?’ I used to think that that was to try to encourage me not to overspend, or perhaps not to buy things so that others would be impressed by what I had. While I don’t disagree with either of those definitions, I have now begun to question that…
ð‘¶ð’ð’„ð’† ð’–ð’‘ð’ð’ ð’‚ ð’•ð’Šð’Žð’†, there was a little girl and her mama. They both had dreams that were much larger than they were! They spent a lot of time together, dreaming about the future and chatting about it. Time went on, and while sometimes it seemed the dreams were far away and forgotten, unbeknownst to…
