Links to Christian websites/blogs

I thought I would share a few web links I have found encouraging and helpful: UPLOOK is a wonderful Christian magazine. I have been encouraged in my walk with the Lord, by their scriptural articles.  You can download back issues of the magazine to your mobile device or computer. They have a magazine archive from 1998 all the way to 2013. Check it out!   http://www.uplook.org/archives.html Another blog:  http://goodwordsandworks.com/ It features book reviews on different books and also great posts on biblical truth.

Recipe: Turkish Delight Candy

  I have wanted to try making Turkish Delight for a few weeks now, I just needed to find Rosewater. We went to a local Halal meat and grocery store and found Rosewater. So I had everything to make it. It takes about an hour to boil the candy, so if you make it, I suggest setting aside a few hours when the house is quiet and there is nothing else going on.  My Turkish word of the day is:  resmini çekmek: to photograph http://www.transparent.com/word-of-the-day/today/turkish.html                                                                            The Turkish Delight after setting overnight.      Make sure to dust your surface with powdered sugar, so it doesn't stick! (Note: I didn't put in the red food colo...
