It's All Good





My gosh, it has been months since I updated my blog. I'm going to do a quick 'catch-you-up' ... got married, traveled, married daughter #1 off, spent time with grandsons & daughter #2 and #1 & only son. Back home, enjoying harvest, canning, the garden of weeding .... and it's all good. How is that!

I'm having fun canning and this year I'm adding to my canning collection. I am going to try some new pepper jellies and for the first time, chutney. As I go along I keep out the 'good' jars for the fair.

I'm hoping to get a recipe tab on my blog so I can have an area devoted to food -- I LOVE food! After all, it's all good.

Why is it all good? Well why not? Life is too short, in my humble opinion, to think it is not good. What is it? It can be whatever you decide to put in 'it's' place. Most people know the scripture .... Love is patient, Love is kind ... Someone once shared that a person might sub a name for Love. So I'm thinking the same thing for 'it's' -- place a name, event or even a cookie -- because in the end ... it truly is all good. Seriously, when a person spends so much negative energy, words, actions on a person, place or thing - where & what does it get them? Vs -- if a person were to apply positive thoughts, words, actions, isn't the outcome better?

My challenge to you -- if you are a scrapbooker, do a LO showing me "It's All Good". And of course, I'm taking the same challenge.
