Coffee Cake

 Dear Readers,

I have a pot of coffee brewing and the windows open to have fresh air in the house for when my husband gets home from work. The birds are beginning to return from their winter trip and it has been such a blessing to hear them praise the Lord throughout the day! I thought I would sit down for a few minuets to post the coffee cake recipe that I promised on the last post.


SOUR CREAM COFFEE CAKE


Ingredients:

3 C. Flour

1 C. Softened Butter

1 Tsp. Baking Powder

1 Tsp. Salt

1 C. Sour Cream

1/2 Tsp. Baking Soda

1 1/2 C. Sugar

3 Eggs

2 Tsp. Vanilla

Sugar and cinnamon to sprinkle between layers.

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour a tube pan. In a medium bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream and baking soda. In a mixer, beat butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. ( You can never have to much vanilla! ;)) Add flour in 3 additions, alternating with the sour cream mixtures in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Use some of the sugar and cinnamon for the bottom of the pan. This is to avoid the cake making to much of a mess when you flip it over. Spread 1/3 of the batter. Sprinkle some of the sugar and  cinnamon  and then layer until you finish the batter, finishing with the last of the sugar and cinnamon. Cook for 60 minutes.

Serve warm with hot coffee and wonderful company!


I am not sure where I located this recipe but I have been making it for years and it has become a household favorite! I hope you all enjoy it as much as we do. Feel free to drop a comment!

Crafting Home Decorations

 As a Christian I am called to be a prayer warrior. This is much easier said then done. I have come to realize the importance of good friends that can come alongside you and keep you accountable and encourage you.  This past year the Lord has brought such a wonderful friend into my life. As we have been encouraging each other to use the powerful tool of prayer, we decided we could craft a prayer board in order to remind us and encourage us to pray daily. I highly recommend doing this as a family or church craft. What a wonderful way to lift up the requests of our brethren and ourselves!  I was able to introduce my friend to the wonderful store of Hobby Lobby! We may have spent a lot of money, however, it was for a good cause!  I do believe they turned out very nicely! I would encourage you to ask people for prayer requests. Prayer is such a powerful tool and we are called to use it.  Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay...

Sisters!

God created this amazing relationship called sisters.  We live together, play together, fight together, worship together and grow up together.  I have two sisters and its been so much fun to become closer through the years.  We aren't just sisters--we are best friends and no matter what happens we will always be there for each other.  I'm not sure when this picture was but it was around 2011-2013 Bess and I at her last recital las May Grabbing lunch during our home remodel. This picture was taken in April of last year And this is a recent picture, taken on my grandmothers birthday. All I can say is I thank God for my sisters and all my family. Your Friend, Haviland~

Simpsonville Mud Run!

Dear Friends, We have had such an exciting day!!  Today My sis (Bess)  and I, along with some friends, participated in the Simpsonville Mud Mania! Also known as a....... Mud Run!!! We had sooooo much fun! Our team was called the Hobbits (can you guess why? lol) Left to Right is: Sarah Kelly, Chloe Patterson, Me and My sis Bess.  Getting ready to start! My family (including my brother Camilo) was so sweet as to  come out in the rain, & early in the morning to cheer us on. And off we go!!  Our run had 24 obstacles and the course was about 3.5 miles. The obstacles included: climbing up dirt mounds, crawling in trenches full of dirty water, swimming though deeper trenches, crawling under an army jeep, crawling under logs, walking over logs, climbing steep mud hills, scaling an 10. ft. wall, and a large waterfall-- just to name a few. It took us about an 1 and a half to compete because we walked most of it. LOL Having so much f...
