| Introduction | My name is Joanna and my intention for this blog is to share with you what's brewing in my life! The first thing you should know about me is that I love Jesus Christ and seek to follow Him in every aspect of my life. I also love my husband, my 4 children (ages 11, 8, 6, and 2) and my occupation as homemaker and schoolmarm. The whistle of the tea kettle is one of my favorite things, and when a cup of hot tea can be combined with some good conversation or a good book, I am happy! My figurative tea pot has been filled over & over again with sweet blessings & things that bring me joy. At other times, the infusion is bitter to the taste or the stuff of life grows lukewarm and one feels like just tossing it down the drain. Sifting through the hodge-podge of life gives me a desire to write, and I have chosen this blog as the canvas on which to do that. Thank you for stopping by! |
| Interests | I enjoy cooking, baking & trying new recipes. I also have a great fondness for my little herb garden and enjoy incorporating fresh herbs into my menu. I enjoy organizing things, from the toy box to my daily schedule, and occasionally even branch out to co-op or the church picnic! |
| Favorite Music | I love a capella and classical. I especially never tire of Handle's Messiah. |
| Favorite Books | I enjoy a wide variety, but among my favorites are memoirs, historical fiction, books relating to the Holocaust & World War 2 era, and books on midwifery & the medical field. Favorite authors are Cathy Glass & Jan Karon. |
