Wait a minute. Are you wondering what a Christmas decor post is doing on a food blog? Well as some of you may remember, ‘At The Corner Of Happy And Harried’ didn’t exactly start out as a food blog. I have a few tricks up my sleeve when it comes to decking the halls as…
A Few Of My Favorite Things #3 – Christmas Around The House
My most favorite time of the year coincides with my least favorite season, yet somehow manages to make it all magical! I just love this time of year – all the fun stuff aside, this is also a season filled with the wondrous anticipation and grace of God’s loving promise to us. Here is what’s…
‘Count Your Blessings’ Thanksgiving Tree
Count your blessings, name them one by one, Count your blessings, see what God hath done! Count your blessings, name them one by one, And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done. That is my mom’s favorite hymn and one of mine too. It is so apt for this season of Thanksgiving. It…
