Call to Impeach Obama

I don't post this lightly but I think that it's time.  So please read and share this if you agree.  This morning I received the following from a friend.  I'll add his name later if he wants me to do so....

Congress of the United States, Articles of Impeachment against Richard M Nixon,

Article 2
"1. He has, acting personally and through his subordinates and agents, endeavored to obtain from the Internal Revenue Service, in violation of the constitutional rights of citizens, confidential information contained in income tax returns for purposes not authorized by law, and to cause, in violation of the constitutional rights of citizens, income tax audits or other income tax investigations to be initiated or conducted in a discriminatory manner."

The types of things that Obama is guilty of caused Nixon to be impeached. This article from Nixon's impeachment only touches upon ONE of the violations that Obama is guilty of. This does not even include his culpability for his involvement in Benghazi or the constitutional abuses that his executive orders and other 'activities' have and will instigate. So what's holding up Obama's impeachment? 

Like, share, and send a copy of this to every single one of your Congressmen if you agree. 

Here's where you find out who your representatives are and how to contact them: http://www.house.gov/representatives/
And here it is for your Senators: http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm

For the sake of our children, our country, and the common good of this land. We cannot let this man's crimes go unpunished.

Please send some simple letters and emails before it gets to the point that we have to take up arms!  Or arms are taken up against us!

Texas Sheet Cake

Don't substitute non-fat anything in this recipe.  It won't be as good.


Cake:

1 cup butter
1 cup water
1/4 cup cocoa
2 cups sugar
2 cups flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
Icing (recipe below)

Icing:

1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup cocoa
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons milk
1 box (1 pound) confectioners’ sugar (sift it first to remove lumps – otherwise icing remains lumpy)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Chopped Pecans (optional)

For the cake: In a saucepan, combine the butter, water and cocoa over med. heat until the butter melts. Don’t let it cook too long. In a separate bowl, combine the sugar, flour, salt, eggs, and baking soda. Add the butter mixture to the dry ingredients. Careful, it’s hot. Add the sour cream and vanilla and mix well. Pour into a sheet cake pan or jelly roll pan. Bake at 350 degress for 20 minutes.

For the icing: In a saucepan, combine the butter, cocoa and milk over medium heat and bring to a boil. Immediately remove from heat and combine with confectioners sugar and vanilla. Mix well with a mixer to remove lumps. Spread over the sheet cake while it is STILL hot. You can either mix the chopped pecans into the icing before pouring it over the hot sheetcake, or sprinkle them over the top after you put the icing on (or omit all together)

Cinnamon Toast

Such a simple thing really but cinnamon toast brings back memories of breakfast with grandma.  This cinnamon toast takes it to a whole new level.  I love the crunchy cinnamony bits on top.  It is the perfect compliment to my morning beverage and tastes as good as or even better than a gooey cinnamon roll.  And so much easier!  It is also healthier for me because I can use organic ingredients on my organic 9 grain bread from Bountiful Baskets.  

Recipe:

Ingredients

8	slices Bread (I used my 9 grain organic BB bread)
1	stick Salted Butter, Softened
½	cup Sugar (more To Taste)
1½	teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
1	teaspoon Vanilla Extract (more To Taste)
¼	teaspoons Ground Nutmeg (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Smash softened butter with a fork. Add sugar, cinnamon, vanilla and nutmeg. Mix until completely combine.

Spread on slices of bread.  Completely cover the surface all the way to the edges.

Place toast on a cookie sheet. Place cookies sheet into the oven and bake for 10 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil until golden brown and bubbling. Watch so it won’t burn!

Remove from oven and cut slices into halves diagonally.

Strawberry Banana Mango Smoothie

Strawberry Banana Mango Smoothie

And Strawberry Mango Syrup

Yummy!

This morning...for breakfast...I served up some of my fresh Bountiful Baskets strawberries for breakfast.  I made French toast from my BB nine grain bread and served it topped with Strawberry Mango Syrup.  We also had Strawberry Banana Mango smoothies with it. I like to experiment with flavors....that's the kind of cook that I am so I rarely follow a recipe exactly.  However, these two recipes are all my own.  I hope you enjoy them.

I scored a bullet type blender at a yard sale yesterday for $10 so I just had to try it out...this was part of the inspiration for my culinary adventure.  If you don't have a bullet or similar blender, a regular blender or a food processor will also work.

Strawberry Mango syrup

1/2 very ripe mango

7-8 large strawberries

Cranberry Raspberry juice (enough to fill the larger bullet cup about 3/4 of the way.  Approx 1.5 cups.  I used Langers)

1/4 cup sugar (or use hone, agave, stevia, etc. but adjust the proportions)

1.  Blend the mango, strawberry, and juice until smooth making certain that there are no lumps left.

2.  Pour into small sauce pan.

3.  Add sugar.

4.  Bring to a boil. Turn down heat and continue a slow boil for approximately 10 min.  

5. Check to make sure that sugar is dissolved.

6.  Cool and serve or refrigerate.

Strawberry Banana Mango Smoothie

1 small extra ripe frozen banana

1/2 mango sliced

5-6 frozen strawberries

Pineapple Coconut juice (enough to fill the larger bullet cup about 3/4 of the way.  Approx 1.5 cups.  I used a natural brand from a health food store.)

1.  Blend the mango, strawberry, banana and juice until smooth making certain that there are no lumps left (unless you like it that way).  Shake if necessary.

2.  Serve.

Enjoy!  My teenage son loved it!

DIY Gel Room Deodorizers

~~~HOMEMADE AIR FRESHENERS~~~ FB post by Courtney Luper

These gel air fresheners are the perfect project! they take a total of five minutes to make, are highly economical, and each jar should last you about a month. These would also make great gifts! 

To make these little beauties, you first need heat-proof jars, food coloring, and essential oil. You can find inexpensive essential oils of various scents at craft stores and some grocery stores. I chose a raspberry scented oil...it smells delightful!

Into each jar, drop a few drops (I repeat...a few...it doesn't take more than 2 or 3) of food coloring.

Then, put in about 30 drops of essential oil, give or take. The more essential oil you put in, the stronger the smell.

Now for the fun part. Gather up 4 envelopes of unflavored gelatin, a tablespoon of salt, and 2 cups of cold water.

Why salt? Salt (or vodka) apparently help to keep the gel from molding. Interesting fact, isn't it?!?

Get one cup of water boiling on the stove. When it begins to boil, whisk in the gelatin, stirring until it's all dissolved.

Then, pour in the other cup of cold water and the salt, stirring until the salt is dissolved.

Quickly pour the hot gelatin mixture in each of your jars, and then use a disposable stick or spoon to stir it into the oil and food coloring.

Let these gel overnight, and then voila! Air freshener!

Emergency Preparedness

This is a subject which is 'dear to my heart'.  Though I have never suffered through a large scale natural disaster, there have been times when things were hard because of economic or physical hardship.  The counsel that I followed many years ago to become prepared by having certain things in place in my life made life bearable and even 'not miserable'.  We always had food on the table, clothing to wear, and sufficient for our needs.  

As a child, this was not always the case in my family.  There were times when all we had in our cupboards was macaroni and tomato sauce.  I remember eating that for weeks at a time for dinner.  It is important that we prepare for the unexpected in our lives.  Even if the economy doesn't collapse and Armeggedon doesn't happen, we have seen that anyone can lose their job and struggle to replace that income.  If you are prepared with the basics, it will make those times much less stressful.

So to help you with that, I will help you find resources to aid in your preparedness journey.  Regardless of where you are now....just starting out....or a veteran looking for your next adventure to tackle.  We can help one another along this journey.

Please feel free to post links for each of the following categories in the comments section.  I welcome advice from those who are even more advanced at this than I am.  I will update this page and create others that link to the categories as our discussion progresses.

Let's separate this into categories:

1.  The beginner.  Where to start and what you should look at first.  

     It always helps to start with a plan.  That way you won't be wasting your money and time on things that might not be beneficial.  For example, buying a bunch of wheat for storage will not help you much if you don't know how to use it.  It also might be detrimental if you don't learn how to store it properly and end up with pests that can ruin not only it but also other parts of your vital storage....not to mention, that you also wasted vital resources because of your lack of knowledge.  

2.  The Novice.  So you've done some preparedness.  How can you become better at it?

    You've got some food and other basics and some knowledge. You could probably make it through 3-6 months if you had to but it would be in survival mode.  Let's ramp it up and get really organized.  Start learning to grow and process your own food.  Learn how to do more to survive longer and better.

3.  The Awakened.  You are realizing that there is much more to preparedness than just having food, water, and shelter.  

     You have what you need to provide for you and yours for a year or more.  But what happens if the SHTF and you become the target of those who weren't so forward thinking.  We know it happens and will happen if a natural disaster occurs in your area or if our economy collapses.  We saw it in New Orleans with Katrina, in Puerto Rico after the earthquake, and in oh so many other situations.  You should be prepared to defend yourself from predators and keep yourself and your loved ones from becoming victims.

4.  The Prepper or Survivalist.  You are working on becoming more self-sufficient and getting off of the grid.

     Wonderful!  You will probably be able to survive and protect you and your loved ones.  You may not live as you did before the SHTF but did you expect to.  That's not realistic.  Nor do I believe that you would even want to if you are truly concerned about preparation.  Once we are in this stage, our society has to work towards rebuilding in healing ways.  The way of life that our culture has lived both now and in the past should show us the error of our ways.  A society that takes and takes and takes is not sustainable. Future generations will pay for it.  Our children and grandchildren will pay for it even if we don't.  So let's find ways to help become more self-sufficient so that we can then be in the position to help rebuild in productive, healing ways.

5.  The Leader.  You're prepared.  Congratulations!  Now think about what you can do to help others around you work towards that (even if they aren't aware of it).  

    But why, you ask?  Think about it.  The most dangerous persons to you if the SHTF will be those who are not prepared and will be looking at you and yours to meet their needs.  If you have helped form a community in which even a small percentage are doing their own prepping, your chance of surviving with some semblance of civilization is greatly increased.  I know you can defend yourself against many comers but what if it's not just a few?  What if it's hundreds and they have guns too?  And would you even want to live that way if you didn't have to do so?  Don't leave this to chance.  Try to get others involved that will know what to do and will help lead those who will be driven by fear...because that will be the major driving force.  And the best way to stay it is with sound leadership and planning.  If you haven't read or listened to 'One Second After', you should.  Your attitude could make the difference in whether or not your community survives or becomes like the 'posse'.  How would you rather live?  How would you rather your family, neighbors and friends live?

This page is a work in progress and I a considering moving it to a website.

Food for Thought

Why does God only allow Priesthood blessings for those who believe and request it?

He IS all-powerful.

Book of Alma son of Alma

Chapter 15

Alma and Amulek go to Sidom and establish a church—Alma heals Zeezrom, who joins the Church—Many are baptized, and the Church prospers—Alma and Amulek go to Zarahemla. About 81 B.C.

Chapter 15

My thoughts

1 And it came to pass that Alma and Amulek were commanded to depart out of that city; and they departed, and came out even into the land of Sidom; and behold, there they found all the people who had departed out of the land of aAmmonihah, who had been bcast out and stoned, because they believed in the words of Alma. 2 And they related unto them all that had happened unto theirawives and children, and also concerning themselves, and of theirbpower of deliverance. 3 And also Zeezrom lay sick at Sidom, with a burning fever, which was caused by the great tribulations of his mind on account of hisawickedness, for he supposed that Alma and Amulek were no more; and he supposed that they had been slain because of his iniquity. And this great sin, and his many other sins, did harrow up his mind until it did become exceedingly sore, having no deliverance; therefore he began to be scorched with a burning heat. 4 Now, when he heard that Alma and Amulek were in the land of Sidom, his heart began to take courage; and he sent a message immediately unto them, desiring them to come unto him. 5 And it came to pass that they went immediately, obeying the message which he had sent unto them; and they went in unto the house unto Zeezrom; and they found him upon his bed, sick, being very low with a burning fever; and his mind also was aexceedingly sore because of his iniquities; and when he saw them he stretched forth his hand, and besought them that they would heal him. 6 And it came to pass that Alma said unto him, taking him by the hand: aBelievest thou in the power of Christ unto salvation? 7 And he answered and said: Yea, I believe all the words that thou hast taught. 8 And Alma said: If thou believest in the redemption of Christ thou canst be ahealed. 9 And he said: Yea, I believe according to thy words. 10 And then Alma cried unto the Lord, saying: O Lord our God, have amercy on this man, and bheal him according to his faith which is in Christ. 11 And when Alma had said these words, aZeezrom leaped upon his feet, and began to walk; and this was done to the great astonishment of all the people; and the knowledge of this went forth throughout all the land of Sidom. 12 And Alma baptized Zeezrom unto the Lord; and he began from that time forth to preach unto the people. 13 And Alma established a church in the land of Sidom, and consecrated apriests and bteachers in the land, to baptize unto the Lord whosoever were desirous to be baptized. 14 And it came to pass that they were many; for they did flock in from all the region round about Sidom, and were baptized. 15 But as to the people that were in the land of Ammonihah, they yet remained a hard-hearted and a stiffnecked people; and they repented not of their sins, aascribing all the power of Alma and Amulek to the devil; for they were of the profession of bNehor, and did not believe in the repentance of their sins. 16 And it came to pass that Alma and Amulek, Amulek havingaforsaken all his gold, and silver, and his precious things, which were in the land of Ammonihah, for the word of God, he beingbrejected by those who were once his friends and also by his father and his kindred; 17 Therefore, after Alma having established the church at Sidom, seeing a great acheck, yea, seeing that the people were checked as to the pride of their hearts, and began to bhumble themselves before God, and began to assemble themselves together at theircsanctuaries to dworship God before the ealtar, fwatching and praying continually, that they might be delivered from Satan, and from gdeath, and from destruction— 18 Now as I said, Alma having seen all these things, therefore he took Amulek and came over to the land of Zarahemla, and took him to his aown house, and did administer unto him in his tribulations, and bstrengthened him in the Lord. 19 And thus ended the tenth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.

The Lord finally lets them leave this wicked, wicked city. They do as the Lord command them and find the people that had been cast out.  Was Amulek’s family among them? It must have grieved them to have to tell these people that their families were dead. Zeezrom is sick because of the things he has done and because of what he thinks his punishment will be. Even though he had spoken against the prophets, apparently he really cared about people.  He probably just hadn’t discovered this for himself.  He had been so busy enriching himself with wealth and power that he hadn’t taken time to discover what was really important to him. He is truly repentant of what he did. He was happy that they had survived.   His repentance begins to glean rewards. Acts of service.  They are willing to forgive Zeezrom and help him find salvation despite what they know he has done. Zeezrom seeks a priesthood blessing from them and they willing give it. An example to us of how we should act towards those who have wronged us and then later seek repentance.  (unless the spirit warns us otherwise) Alma must make sure that he has truly repented and understands from whence his blessings come. Zeezrom professes to now believe. Healing requires belief/faith.  Why?  God has all power to do all things.  Is it perhaps a function of the laws of Agency.  God will not force His will upon us...even His blessings? Zeezrom professes his belief. At that point, Alma is free to help him and bless him through his priesthood authority/power. The Lord blesses us according to our faith and then that those blessings serve to strengthen the faith of others. So the suffering of Alma, Amulek, and the other believers is not in vain. Even though the people that they originally preached to rejected them, the peoples in the surrounding areas accept them readily. Even with all of the miracles in their community, the people of Ammonihah still reject the gospel. Amulek forsook all that he owned and even his own family for the Lord. Alma makes certain that the church is strong in Sidom with all of the leaders needed before he leaves. Because Amulek has nothing and no family or friends, Alma takes him to his own home. Alma is doing what he should do. Amulek is being blessed for his faith and loyalty through all tribulation.

Protect Yourself and Your Children

Protect Yourself And Your Children

   A post that I've seen several times on internet has brought to mind something that I posted on a Facebook site several months ago.  I am going to post it again because as the liberal element in this country runs more and more amuck, it seems this will become more of an issue.  

    This is the post from Facebook that spurred my thoughts:

Click here to see the original story on Fox News website.

This is what I posted several months ago:

Disclaimer: This is not legal advice. If you have any concerns of this nature, please see an attorney.

________'s post made me think of another legal sticky wicket that can sometimes crop up for families. I have a girlfriend in a custody battle for whom this is an issue right now. The problem is...having an irate or vindictive spouse or neighbor ( or someone else) calling child protective services on you to get revenge. This happens more than you can imagine. It's happened to me once and thank heavens for the advice given to me by a very good friend who is an attorney and has had to sue Utah several times on just this very subject.

The way he explained it is this. Child protective services is given money for every child that they 'free' from the home by the Feds. No removal of a child equals no money so the more children they take...whether deserved or not...the more money they get. (The feds did this because they can't legally enact laws for child protection...it is considered a state's jurisdictional right.) If you have counselors who are honestly there to help the children, then it may not become an issue. However, often there is a lot of pressure from their bosses to come up with numbers so that they have money in their budget.

The advice he gave me that saved my bacon when an abusive and vindictive ex-spouse falsely called child protective services was this:
1) When they show up at your door, DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES LET THEM INTO YOUR HOME. If you do, you open up another whole can of worms if they see anything--however innocent--that they might consider or construe as abuse. (messy house, etc.) They cannot legally come into your home unless they have a warrant AND a police officer with them to serve it.  (They must have both!)

2) Instead tell them IN THESE WORDS this: " On the advice of an attorney, I will not allow you into my home. I will meet you in your office to discuss this. " Don't say anything else! If they persist in trying to get you to give information, repeat what my friend said to say. Make an appointment right then and there and then go to their office to talk. Make sure that you take a tape recorder (In this day and age, I might even take a camcorder) AND a witness with you when you go. Put the tape recorder on their desk where they can see it. If they protest, tell them that the legal advice you've been given is that every word between you and him/her is to be recorded. AND that you've brought your friend as a witness. If you're open about it up front, you can use anything they say in court...and they know it.

My friend said that they tend to 'pick' on those they see as defenseless. If you put out a strong front to begin with, that is often enough to get them to back off. It also helped that I knew which two individuals might have called and why. My ex actually told me that he was going to do it if I didn't do something that he wanted me to do. I laughed at him which probably made him even madder but I wasn't letting him bully me any more. The woman from child protective services seemed to be very interested by this when I told her. So I am certain that it was him (because they won't tell you who did it.)

3) And this is very important! DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING THAT THEY GIVE YOU! Don't even sign the letter that they send you telling you that if you sign it they will go away! My friend said that this just gives them the legal right to do just the opposite and then you may have to get an attorney to make them go away. The letter they send makes it sound very ominous like they have the legal right to come in and take your kids without legal due course if you don't sign it. They are lying! If you sign that letter, you are basically giving them 'carte blanche' to come and do that very thing. I don't know exactly why or how it works but my lawyer friend was very insistent that I don't sign ANYTHING from them (even to verify that you visited). If they try to force the issue, tell them that you will have to have an attorney look at the papers before you will be willing to sign them. Usually that will be enough to get them to back off. If they come back later looking for the papers, then do go see an attorney. It will be cheaper to do this at the beginning than to have to retain an attorney to try to prevent them from taking your kids because you signed something....or to try to get them back.

I realize that there are some children that should be taken from their homes but those are the exception rather than the rule. However, many individuals and families end up being harassed by a system undeservedly all in the name of the almighty dollar. My friend wanted to take it on nationally and try to get it changed but it was just too overwhelming for him. However, the counselors in Utah know his name and back off if they know the family knows him. I'd say that is a very good sign that he's done some good there.
Protect your families! And your friends families! Share this status

One thing that I failed to mention that is very important.  Immediately after the DFS worker leaves your home, take your child (children) in for a full physical.  DO IT THAT DAY!  Go to the emergency room if necessary and tell the physician why you are there and that you need documentation that the child is healthy and not abused physically in any way.  This is important because there have been accounts of DFS claiming that any signs of abuse had healed, etc.  You need PROOF that this is not the case.  Take those papers (a copy only...keep the original) in to your meeting with Child Protective Services.

Alma 15	My Thoughts
1 And it came to pass that Alma and Amulek were commanded to depart out of that city; and they departed, and came out even into the land of Sidom; and behold, there they found all the people who had departed out of the land of aAmmonihah, who had been bcast out and stoned, because they believed in the words of Alma.  2 And they related unto them all that had happened unto theirawives and children, and also concerning themselves, and of theirbpower of deliverance.  3 And also Zeezrom lay sick at Sidom, with a burning fever, which was caused by the great tribulations of his mind on account of hisawickedness, for he supposed that Alma and Amulek were no more; and he supposed that they had been slain because of his iniquity. And this great sin, and his many other sins, did harrow up his mind until it did become exceedingly sore, having no deliverance; therefore he began to be scorched with a burning heat.  4 Now, when he heard that Alma and Amulek were in the land of Sidom, his heart began to take courage; and he sent a message immediately unto them, desiring them to come unto him.  5 And it came to pass that they went immediately, obeying the message which he had sent unto them; and they went in unto the house unto Zeezrom; and they found him upon his bed, sick, being very low with a burning fever; and his mind also was aexceedinglysore because of his iniquities; and when he saw them he stretched forth his hand, and besought them that they would heal him.  6 And it came to pass that Alma said unto him, taking him by the hand: aBelievest thou in the power of Christ unto salvation?  7 And he answered and said: Yea, I believe all the words that thou hast taught.  8 And Alma said: If thou believest in the redemption of Christ thou canst be ahealed.  9 And he said: Yea, I believe according to thy words.  10 And then Alma cried unto the Lord, saying: O Lord our God, have amercy on this man, and bheal him according to his faith which is in Christ.  11 And when Alma had said these words, aZeezrom leaped upon his feet, and began to walk; and this was done to the great astonishment of all the people; and the knowledge of this went forth throughout all the land of Sidom.  12 And Alma baptized Zeezrom unto the Lord; and he began from that time forth to preach unto the people.  13 And Alma established a church in the land of Sidom, and consecrated apriests and bteachers in the land, to baptize unto the Lord whosoever were desirous to be baptized.  14 And it came to pass that they were many; for they did flock in from all the region round about Sidom, and were baptized.  15 But as to the people that were in the land of Ammonihah, they yet remained a hard-hearted and a stiffnecked people; and they repented not of their sins, aascribing all the power of Alma and Amulek to the devil; for they were of the profession of bNehor, and did not believe in the repentance of their sins.  16 And it came to pass that Alma and Amulek, Amulek havingaforsaken all his gold, and silver, and his precious things, which were in the land of Ammonihah, for the word of God, he beingbrejected by those who were once his friends and also by his father and his kindred;  17 Therefore, after Alma having established the church at Sidom, seeing a great acheck, yea, seeing that the people were checked as to the pride of their hearts, and began to bhumble themselves before God, and began to assemble themselves together at theircsanctuaries to dworship God before the ealtar, fwatching and praying continually, that they might be delivered from Satan, and from gdeath, and from destruction—  18 Now as I said, Alma having seen all these things, therefore he took Amulek and came over to the land of Zarahemla, and took him to his aown house, and did administer unto him in his tribulations, and bstrengthened him in the Lord.  19 And thus ended the tenth year of the reign of the judges over the people of Nephi.	Alma and Amulek obey God's command for them to leave. When they do, they find those that had been driven out.  They probably had no idea that they were still alive because they had been imprisoned.  As far as Alma and Amulek knew....everyone had been murdered.  I'm sure that their joy was great at finding survivors. I wonder if Amulek's family was among them? Alma and Amulek had to tell them about the deaths of their families. Zeezrom's guilt is making him physically ill.

Be faithful over a few things…from this I get the implication that it doesn’t matter how much we have or have not in mortality.  What matters is how we use what we have been given…how do we administer and/or magnify our stewardships?
