John Rosemond Takes Baby Boomers On A Sweet Venture Down Memory Lane

                     John Rosemond's "Grandma Was Right After All" takes an in depth view of old fashioned parenting vs today's parenting.  Many of us baby boomers remember this era as the pre Dr. Spock days when parents only goal was setting boundaries in order to prepare their children for their future.  At that time discipline was the highest form of love.  Many thought that parents were too stern but in the long run, their methods worked  As a by product of the seventies I was blessed in that regard.  The author playfully discusses the many sayings that were common to everyone's parents.  Rosemond takes us on a fun journey down memory lane.  How awesome life would be if this old fashioned parenting were still implicated today. Kudos to the Tyndale Blogger Community for allowing me to receive a copy of this excellent book in exchange for my review.  What a Remarkable Read~

How #Rhodes Bake & Serve Made My Special Week So Much Easier!

                 My daughter giving birth to another child after 17 years was a big surprize.  A few weeks back we welcomed little Brayden into the family.  That meant family & friends coming in from out of town to visit our newest member.  It was nothing to have between 5-10 guests at every meal.  #Tryazon gave me a perfect idea for breakfast.  I knew #Rhodes Bake & Serve Cinnamon Rolls would make for a big hit.  These are so simple to bake and only take fifteen minutes to prepare.  Once in the oven our home had the sweetest aroma which urged everyone to the breakfast table.

Needless to say everyone just loved the cinnamon rolls; especially the fellows.  #Rhodes also came in handy at dinnertime.  Rhodes dinner rolls were the perfect addition to my homemade pasta and meatball supper.  The rolls were so simple to prepare, I thawed them at room temperature and let them rise and stick them in the oven to bake.  My reward from my guests was an empty plate and smiling faces.  My reward to my guests were the coupons provided by #Tryazon for them to take home and use.  

Kudos to #Rhodes and to #Tryazon for making my meals a success.  Now for the best part...see below

Brutally Honest, Could Not Put 'The Plain Choice' down.

"The Plain Choice- a true story of Choosing to Live an Amish Life" is one book I could not put down without completing.  It's not your typical amish story.  Sherry Gore's background includes a life of neglect and abuse, drugs, loss of loved ones, homelessness  and rebelliousness...certainly not the simple quiet life of the Amish.  Raised among the rich and famous in California, Sherry never feels as if she fits in.  As a young person she eludes all the glitter and ventures to Florida.  Here she comes face to face with homelessness and defeat.  She changes her name and try as she may to isolate from family, a miracle occurs when a relative takes her in to get her back on her feet.  Sherry continues to look for love in all the wrong places and suffers by the hand of a controlling mate.  Kudos to Sherry for sharing her successful plan on leaving an abusive partner.  This part of her journey is a must read for all those caught in similar conditions also answers the question as to why victims just don't leave their abusers.  Sherry Gore's true story is an excellent resource for anyone wanting to learn about what victim's go through.  She also shares the birth and joy of her children; the devastating loss of her best friend and sister whom also was in an abusive relationship and concludes with her spiritual awakening (the need for God) and the contentment that brings.  Sherry finds her true self in the serving of God.  This book is an excellent read.  I had the priviledge of reading and reviewing for BookLook Bloggers.

Monika Korra's Rise Above Adversity

Monika Korra refused defeat; although she was brutally raped by three individuals on her way home from a party while she was in college she determined to rise above this horrific experience.  In her book, Kill The Silence A Survivor's Life Reclaimed Monika bravely recounts the night she was abused and allows the reader to follow step by step in her healing.  There is much to be learnt about courage from this amazing woman.  Definitely her story is so compelling that I would encourage others to put on their "must read" list.  Kill The Silence is my favorite read for 2015 and I had the honor of reading for the  Blogging for Books website.

Adoption~ The Sweet Hope of Family

Teresa Hull presents this beautiful story, "Loves Complete A Russian Journey", in simplistic terms for children who are preparing to be adopted.  In terms they could understand she breaks down the process so that they will be ready for their journey.  She does a wonderful job and covers everything.  A much needed book that will prove to be beneficial for many.  I was given the opportunity to review this book for Harper Collins Book Look Club.
