Encourage Yourself

 

Whatever your past, leave it behind you! You have come through and the the only person that can hold you to what was, is you. Start looking forward! Walking with Christ you will be led toward a righteous future and the past will only be a memory.

No Yeast Bread

I was in my facebook group Buildeth Her House and some ladies were posting about baking bread. I wanted to bake some soooo bad, but I had no yeast. I didn't want to wait days to ferment some natural bread either. I do have some Amish friendship bread on day 3, but not white bread. Then Debbie posted a link for No Yeast Bread. I baked some and about an hour later I had fresh bread!

Preheat oven 400 degrees

Ingredients:

4 cups flour

1 tbsp sugar

1/2 tbsp baking powder

1/2 tbsp baking soda

1 1/2 cups water

2 tsp vinegar (cider or white)

Combine dry ingredients, then mix in wet ingredients. Turn dough onto floured surface and kneed for 3 minutes, no need to over do it. Shape in round 11/2-2 inch sphere. Dip a knife in flour and cut and X in the top. Bake for 40 minutes and glaze with butter while hot.

all ingredients mixed into a dough

placed on floured pan with X carved in the top

All done! Buttered and ready to serve...

DIY hemmed jeans

You may or may not can tell this, but I'm a shortie! Yes I'm only 5'2-5'3 or something of that nature. Really, when it under 5'5 does the exact measurement really matter anymore...lol But bringing it back on topic, store bought pants rarely ever fit my height. I usually end up with ruined hems where I've stepped on them constantly, especially when it rains. So, instead of paying for a tailor or dry cleaner to hem them, I got to work on researching how I could possibly do it. And I found several vids, pics and articles on how to do it for free at home. Cuz free is so me!! 

original length, I was stepping on them...

 

Step 1: Fold and measure.

Pin and try on to make sure the length works before you sew. 

(This I didn't do and had to resew one leg.)

I sewn the top and cut off 2 inches

Fold down and you're done

All done and a perfect fit for me!

I found doing it this way is perfect for people who don't sew very. You can also use a sewing machine or hand sew, like I did. Because you keep the professional finished hem, you can't tell where your hem is. And best of all it is free!
