by Emily M. from Virtuous Daughters, November 2008~Volume 8, Number 8 Ahh . . . Dessert!! What a sweet thought! As the leaves fall from the trees and snow begins to fall (at least in my part of the country!), I find myself spending quite a bit of time in the kitchen experimenting with new recipes and making old favorites. Desserts are my favorite things to bake. Most desserts are chocked full off unhealthy fats, sugars, and artificial ingredients. As I bake, my desire is to produce a flavorful yet healthy product.
Ever since I started cooking as a young child, my parents have reinforced this important principle for quality food: “Quality food should not only taste good, but it should look good, be good for you, and be good for the budget.” This principle has served to guide me as I’ve progressed in my cooking skills. However, it is challenging to apply this principle to desserts, especially the “be good for you” part! Here are some of the ways I’ve learned and ways I’m working on to make desserts fit the principle: by Gina L. from Virtuous Daughters, August 2016~Volume 16, Number 5 "Panning for Gold" Proverbs 31 Study Series Part 5 ~Proverbs 31:14~ Proverbs 31:14 says the Virtuous Woman is like the merchants’ ships; she bringeth her food from afar. We must not be so quick to spiritualize everything in Scripture (though I think that we can safely draw some applications in time), but first let us actually consider what is being stated here by God in His Word.
