Vegan Double Chocolate Banana Bread ~ and ~ about today...

I tweaked Smitten Kitchen's 

double chocolate banana bread

and used half cup coconut oil, half vegan margarine,

used X-Gum for binder and regular flour.

While not as decadent as the one with 

butter and eggs, it is still good!

One for now and one for next week,

in the freezer!

I am struggling with some insomnia right now,

please pray for me!

My sense is that the devil knows I am to host 

children who God LOVES and the devil does not.

Thank God we know who wins!

Our Saviour Jesus Christ!

As just mentioned... Mr. Husband and 

I will be hosting different children for 

the next two or three weeks for sleepovers

and I am finding lots of stuff for this.

Ordered some crafts supplies via amazon prime,

some cool books via amazon and St. Tikhon's bookstore,

found and was emailed some cool things including 

here, here, here and here. 

I found this recent post (H/T Mat Emily) here to be very helpful!

Thanks also for the suggestions I was given earlier this week!

*

Asking for any other suggestions also! 

Thank God I had 6 years in my twenties with a Bible camp

and before that years of babysitting...:)

So I am creating a schedule for activity time and also rest times!

*

There are so many people going through stressful times right now.

Please pray for Mat. Anna, Noah and for all those 

we can't mention but you know need prayer...

*

All I know is that God is with us 

in every valley of difficulty we face...
