Women Helping Women

0 · Oct 12, 2015 · Leave a Comment

Today we unite as Women. Women helping Women.

I’m touched to be one of the many female online influencers who want to reach out and help; to be part of something bigger than just one because together we can all make a difference in the lives of women living in extreme poverty around the world.

I’m honored to introduce you to BeadforLife a non-profit organization who’ve been helping the poverty stricken women of Uganda, Africa for over a decade. What’s even cooler than that is they’re now ready to take those efforts to the world!

And we can lend a helping hand to Ignite 1 Million…

It starts with a spark

At BeadforLife they believe that every woman has within her a spark of potential and pride. They’ve been helping women find their spark in Uganda for the last decade – helping them leave poverty behind, for good. Women are able to gain the confidence they need and the business skills to succeed through entrepreneurial training programs. Now they’re ready to ignite that spark of potential for one million women around the world!

They have been working with women in Uganda who are among the poorest of the poor, helping them transform their lives and the lives of generations to come. Through the Beads to Business program, they’ve reached thousands of women, giving them the confidence and know-how to launch their own businesses. Their entrepreneurial training model works.

Other BeadforLife members never create a product for BeadforLife, but instead already own a tiny business or have a dream of one day owning a business. BeadforLife enrolls these entrepreneurs in The Street Business School, a 6-month program providing enterpreneurial training and mentoring to help them start and scale a business. This is a cost-effective and scalable way for women living in desperate poverty to get the opportunity to become successful business women.

Now we have seen that The Street Business School program works and we’re dreaming big. We’re taking this poverty eradication program to the world to ignite the lives of 1 million women! Over the next three years, we will be working with other like-minded organizations across the globe. We will scale The Street Business School model, tailoring it to new cultures and continents and building a network of trainers to help women rise out of poverty.

Let your Light so Shine Before Men Scripture

11 · Oct 5, 2015 · 3 Comments

I have always been intrigued with this scripture Let your Light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”. I created a free printable that you can download at the end of this article. It will help you Ponderize.

Here is the full scripture

“Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”

What does the scripture “Let Your Light so Shine Before Men” mean?

This is something that we were pondering in the past few weeks. Sometimes with the language of religious books, it can be hard to understand. It can take a while to just sit and think about even just one sentence to fully understand it. This is why we accepted the challenge to Ponderize…

Our family has accepted the Ponderize challenge from our Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saint’s Annual General Conference yesterday (October 2019) from Devin G. Durrant.  What does it mean to PONDERIZE?

To Ponderize is 80% extended pondering and 20% memorization of our scriptures.

It’s not just memorizing. It’s taking time to think about what the Lord would have us learn from the verse. It’s not hard, and even the kiddos can do it. Tonight for Family Home Evening our family is going to work on our verse for this week, Matthew 5:16… “Let your Light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”

Let your light shine 8.5x11

Let Your Light So Shine Before Men, That They May See Your Good Works, and Glorify Your Father Which is in Heaven

So what is Matthew 5:16 KJV really saying? I think it’s really just about doing good and leading by example. It’s about doing things through the power of God. Often times it seems that folks just overthinking things but I prefer to keep it simple. The interpretation of this verse is up to you to decide. There are so many good deeds done in the world today but they get swept under the rug by all of the negativity that’s spread. Let’s try to do more and shine our light!

You can join us!!

It doesn’t matter what religion you are,  let’s bring a little light into this world. Print the verse each week and take time to ponder about it’s meaning and then commit it to memory.

You can download the PONDERIZE printable HERE

I have created a large 8 1/2 x 11 graphic along with a 4×6 graphic that you can print and place in strategic places around your home. Hopefully, we can grow closer to our Heavenly Father, closer to our families, and to our communities by PONDERIZING the scriptures! Maybe this is just me trying to do my part by trying to let my light shine before men? Who knows but I really enjoy sharing.

I’ve been thinking more about philosophy lately and recently wrote a post called biocentrism debunked that you may find interesting.

Holiday Nog Pull Apart Bread + Neighbor Gift

64 · Nov 12, 2014 ·

+ This Holiday Nog Pull Apart Bread post brought to you by Silk +

Silk-Holiday-Nog-Pull-Apart-Bread-WhipperBerry

I’m so excited for this time of year… I LOVE baking and creating goodies for my friends and neighbors. I grew-up with a Mom who kicked it into high gear for a few weeks in December every year, pumping out Holiday goodies like peanut brittle, chocolate peanut butter bars, and fudge along with cookies galore. I remember watching both my parents working together on those scrumptious neighbor treats, and it always made my heart happy.

I remember the year when I ate SO MUCH of my favorite Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars, I swore I would never eat chocolate again! It took me a few years, but I eventually found my way back.

Now that I’m the Mom, I try to come up with some fun goodie each to year to share with our friends. A few weeks ago, I was at the Pillsbury Bake-Off and was inspired. A few of the entires were fun pull-apart breads with various different flavor profiles. I thought it would be fun to have a Holiday Nog Pull Apart Bread for a neighbor gift.

Silk-Holiday-Nog-Pull-Apart-Bread-2

This is really just a simplified cinnamon roll with the addition of a Silk Holiday Nog glaze on top. Why Silk Holiday Nog you ask?

Well… First off, I LOVE it! It has all the Holiday flavor without all the guilt. It is free of dairy, egg, casein, MSG & lactose. It has no cholesterol or saturated fat and has a fraction of the calories of traditional Egg Nog. It’s the perfect Holiday treat minus the guilt. I thought it would be the perfect flavor profile for my pull-apart bread!

Silk-Holiday-Nog-Pull-Apart-Bread-1

Now, the real secret to this pull apart bread is how EASY it is to make! You will look like you slaved over it for hours, but no… It really only took minutes to make. Here’s how you make it.

Holiday Nog Pull Apart Bread Recipe

1 can of Pillsbury Crescent Seamless Dough Sheets

3 tablespoons melted unsalted butter

1 teaspoon pumpkin pie seasoning

2 teaspoons of sugar

1 teaspoon of Swedish Pearl Sugar (optional)

1 cup powdered sugar

1 tablespoon Silk Holiday Nog

​pinch of salt

non-stick baking spray

Preheat the oven to 350˚

You will need small paper loaf baking pans to bake your bread in. This will also make it easier to give as gifts to your friends. Spray the pan with a non-stick baking spray and set aside.

Open your Pillsbury dough and unroll on a clean surface and brush with melted butter.

IMG_0007

Then sprinkle the entire surface with pumpkin pie seasoning and sugars.

IMG_0008

I like to add the Swedish Pearl Sugar to my bread, but it’s not totally needed. It just gives it that little extra something. You can find this in most grocery stores these days in the baking isle.

IMG_0010

Next, cut your dough into squares roughly the width of your baking pan.

IMG_0011

Stack your squares, and place them in your pan.

IMG_0013

You should have some extra room for the dough to expand. Brush the top with more melted butter and sprinkle with more sugar.

Place in a 350˚ oven for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.

In the meantime, you can whisk-up your glaze. In a small bowl add 1 cup of powdered sugar and pour 1 tablespoon of Silk Holiday Nog into the sugar, whisk together. The sugar should melt right into the Holiday Nog. Play with the consistency, If you like a thick glaze, don’t add as much liquid, if you like a thinner glaze, add more. Once you get your desired consistency, add a good pinch of salt. Carefully drizzle glaze over your pull-apart bread.

Package it up in a cellophane bag for your friends and neighbors. I think I am also going to add a carton of Silk Holiday Nog to the basket when deliverthis treat! It will taste so good with the bread!!

Silk-Holiday-Nog-Pull-Apart-Bread-WhipperBerry

Now this recipe makes one loaf. If you are wanting to make more than one, you will need to grab more cans of dough and double or triple the recipe.

I will have you know… NONE of the bread that I made for this post even left the house! My husband and the kiddos got to it first and they inhaled them before they even had time to cool and be photographed. Yep they are that tasty!
