Helpful Score: 1


I like the general permission to experiment that the author encourages the reader to take in their cooking. I also found suggested combinations of seasonings for different flavors from around the world helpful. The actual recipes seemed kind of fussy as if you were trying to cook like some 5 star chef rather than for kids. I just want to get dinner on the table. Vanilla beans combined with exotic fruits and pancetta aren't necessarily inspiring to me.

I had never read any of Stormie Omartian's books on prayer before. I guess I expected a basic why and how to pray book and wasn't expecting to be inspired by it. I like how it's broken down to pray throughout the month for your husband and has scripture for each topic. I did pray through the book. There's a day to pray for your husband's work. Part of that prayer was to pray that your husband will be paid for the work he does. Not long after praying this my husband had a client who hadn't been able to pay come to him and say, âYou will work for free no longer.â I'd say that was an answered prayer. Praise God! It was encouraging and very doable. I highly recommend this.
