English Treasures

This past weekend I was visiting with my Nephew and Niece in Lake Wales and my Niece served tea in her sweet poppy tea cup that she brought back from England and she had the prettiest two tiered biscuit plate too.  True English Treasures

Psalm 86:5

You, Lord, are forgiving and good,

    abounding in love to all who call to you.

Alice in Wonderland plus Tea

This is a painting I found on display in a gallery, thought it was unique..

This past weekend we found a tea cup to match the Alice in Wonderland Teapot I have.

The saucer is really different it is in the shape of a hat,  I need to get a better photo of the saucer.

I was reading the word and Psalm 37:5 says, 

" Commit your ways to the Lord, trust in him, and he will act."  

It is restful to know we can rest in the Lord, He truly cares and He will make a way.

Dulce De Leche Brazilian Cupcake with Red Rose Tea

This is a must try recipe if you love cupcakes! They are truly Divine and easy, easy, easy! 

I was given this recipe by a friend I work with, she is from Brazil and this is her recipe.

Hint: 100g of butter is about 1 stick of butter here in the States and 250g of Dulce de Leche is just about the whole 14 oz can of Nestle Dulce de Leche, also I baked them at 350 degrees for 8 minutes.

You have to let the cupcakes cool for a good 45 minutes and then they are ready to enjoy. 

I found The Donald cup towel in Orlando, he is too cute.

Recipe:

 Start melting 250g of Dulce de Leche and 100g of butter in the microwave for about 1 to 2 minutes

Combine 2 full eggs, and 2 egg yokes to the melted mixture. Mix well using a fork or small whisk until well combined.

Add 1/2 Cup of flour and 1/2 Cup of sugar and mix them with a fork or whisk just until smooth.

Pour the mixture into cupcake liners ( about 12) and take them to a pre-heated oven (380 degrees) 

Eight minutes are enough for the cupcakes to bake.

Serve with whip cream and a maraschino cherry on top.

Psalm 143:10

Teach me how to do Your will,  for You are my God. Allow Your good Spirit to guide me on level ground, to guide me along Your path.

New Living Translation (NLT)

⁸ 

The Lord is compassionate and merciful,

    slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.

He will not constantly accuse us,

    nor remain angry forever.

¹⁰ 

He does not punish us for all our sins;

For his unfailing love toward those who fear him

    is as great as the height of the heavens above the earth.

¹² 

He has removed our sins as far from us
