One of my favorite breakfast food is a bowl of cream of wheat. It is one of my ultimate comfort foods. I take mine with a pat of butter, a splash of cream and a spoonful of homemade jelly. My mother would feed it to us as children. It was cheap to make and very filling. It also would warm you up on a cold day.
When I was in the hospital with my forth child I remember the impact Cream of wheat had on me. I had given birth prematurely to my son.he still weighed over ten pounds at birth. He went into respiratory distress and they careflighted him to a larger town hospital. That was a very long care ride. The hospital put us up in a family room. We stayed for over a week. I remember eating a bowl of cream of wheat every morning during our stay. We would walk down to the cafeteria and get our breakfast. Cream of wheat was the cheapest and it came with lots of toppings. I would get nuts and brown sugar. It was a comfort to eat that. It felt like a giant hug from my momma.
I still eat cream of wheat often. Every time I stay at the hospital with someone I make sure to eat a bowl for breakfast. Today my brother is in the hospital for respiratory problems. I told him I am eating a bowl for him. Prayers for my brother to have a quick recovery are appreciated.
Hello, my name is Dinky. This is a name given to me in my first marriage. It is my grandma name. A few other selected individuals address me as such. I am a onetime divorced, one-time widowed single woman trying to discover the real me. I will take you on my journey. Read if you are interested.
I feel that I am a hard knock educated person. I have been a working mother, a stay-at-home wife, a Christian, a caretaker, and a retired woman. I am always seeking wisdom on how to improve as a person and hopefully I can share as I learn more.
I have many interests. I enjoy cooking because I enjoy eating. I am not a great cook but am eager to try new recipes. I will share these with you. I have a degree in business management and a certification in food science. I have worked man years in the food manufacturing industry.
I also have a small farm. I have some cows, a donkey, some wild horses a bull and two dogs. I would like to explore more homesteading techniques and become self-sustained. Maybe we can learn together. I encourage your input and ideas.
I have spent many years learning how to make quilts. This is another hobby I would like to get back into. I am always up to learn new crafts and explore new projects.
I am really big on goal setting and finding ways to make my life simpler. I will take you through some of my ideas on that progress.
Lastly, but biggest on my list is that I am a Christian in continual growth mode. I will never be all that I should, and I will never judge people in regard to their own journey. I am always open for discussion on this topic.
If you find my talks interesting, feel free to follow me. If I say or write anything offensive feel free to call me out. I am up for improvement and self-growth.
Welcome to learning about me and helping me in my self-discovery.
