COME SAY HI

I was taught to gather others through the loss of

I was taught to gather others through the loss of my little sister Kelly.
I have always enjoyed making friends. But after Kelly died it sent me on a search for what I had lost. For a while it also left me disappointed because even though people were great, they didn’t fill the missing relationship her death caused.
Since Then God has helped me Learn the value of female friendships. They take work and time (I think @brookeromneywrites wrote a great post about it yesterday) and I have been richly blessed from the many friendships I have made.
I love gathering friendships. So many women bless my life. I realized I can find different parts of the one I lost.
That realization changed how I gather and how often. It’s why my door is always open and my heart is always wanting connection with others. I want to give others parts of what I lost and find it for myself too.
So today, when she would have turned 38 I’ll be extra grateful for the time I had with her and the many women who I’ve gotten to know in the years since.
Women who have taught me about sisterhood, kindness, humour, consistency, resilience and many other things.
Women who bless my life immensely.
Making friendships takes work but it’s worth it.
How gather and strengthen your female friendships?

Making donuts today made me think of my grandma. She made a lot of things, but her buttermilk cake donuts were one of her most well known. I haven’t made them since she passed away but I wanted to include the recipe in my book. So I made and measured and thought of grandma.
My mom also has a signature donut. She doesn’t really make them anymore, but I do often and when I do I think of my mom.
It’s funny the things that can connect over generations. Something carried down even when it changes a bit.
Looks like I need to figure out my donut recipe. Even if I keep making both of theirs. A donut to add to the pile carried down the line. Another one my kids say “My mom always made these.”
Do you like cake or yeast donuts better?

I’m calling these “the fluffiest buns in the world.” 😂 Cause seriously, they’re the fluffiest buns in the world.
I’ve spent the whole day trying out recipes. It’s been a good way to keep busy and focused while my kids do online school. I’m getting excited to share all the recipes but there’s also still nervousness for me. It’s a weird combo.
I’m loving especially coming up with flavours I love together. Like rhubarb and almond or brown butter and parsley. Do you have any flavours you love together?
And on a side note, I’m trying to decide if I should make a FB page for my baking and book.... I can’t decide.

I love working on projects like this summer gathering for @latterdaywoman
I love making food for gatherings that looks pretty and tastes good too. For this little backyard gathering I went for fun summer colours too.
Go check out the newest edition of Latter Day Women and Check out the tasty treats and other great articles.
And I’ll be planning in my head all the gatherings I’m going to host when we can!
