5 Reasons Why Your Food Doesn’t Taste As Good As Your Mama’s

On By Lady GIn Food, Dining, Entertainment, Youtube4 Comments

…Or your grandma’s or granddaddy’s or whoever your culinary hero happens to be—personally, I have several!

Anyway, now that we’ve got that settled, please feel free to accept or decline the following holiday cooking Public Service Announcement, from me to you.

LadyG: Seekthebestblog.com

Flat out, your food will never taste as good as mama’s.

Come on now, somebody must tell you why your apple pie is pallid and your fried chicken is fretful. 

Apparently, I am that ‘somebody.’

Yes, my love, I know… It hurts.

But be of good cheer, there is joyful news!

Yes!

I’m here to call out your mistakes and to help you figure out how to fix them.

As such, you may refer to me as your culinary ‘good fairy’ or ‘kitchen witch.’

Allow me to thank you, in advance, for welcoming me into your home.

And so…

Let us commence!

There are at least 5 reasons why you’ll never reach ‘legendary’ cooking status within the realm of mama–and they are as follows:

You chose to use different brands. In the words of my brother, Tack, if you want your food to taste like Mama’s, you gotta buy what Mama buys. So, if Mama used ‘Dixie Crystal,’ do not get ‘Thriftymaid.’

You make unnecessary modifications. Substituting margarine for butter, using the ‘lite’/’light’ version of things, using canola for shortening in the can, Splenda for sugar, or, God forbid, canned fruits and/or vegetables for fresh. Of course, you must follow your doctor’s dietary guidance if you have certain medical conditions.

You fail to time your cooking. Simply put, you cannot start cooking all of your food at the same time. Start slow cooking things first, then gradually cook other items as you go by cooking fast cooking foods last.

You’re doing too much with seasonings and spices. Stop experimenting with everything you ever thought you heard about how to season things. As for my mother, she typically only used about 2 or 3 seasonings. Baking is the only real exception to that rule; however, my mom was decidedly not a baker.

You’re not cooking your food long enough (or vice versa) or not blending, stirring, or mixing long enough for certain items. ‘Nuff said!

Now that you know better, do better! LOL! By the way, there are plenty of other reasons why you can’t beat Mama’s cooking! LOL!

God Knows The Answer To EVERY Problem

On By Lady GIn Spirit, Youtube5 Comments

Lesson of the Day: God knows the answer to every problem.

If you have encountered a problem that you cannot solve, why not ask God for help?

Follow my flow…

Every morning, I always set aside time to pray, meditate, and read selections from spiritual based books–which I usually select randomly.

Just so you know, I pick spiritual readings, at random, in order to allow my higher self to choose the Divine message that I need to study; or be reminded of.

So to reiterate, today’s message, from Emmet Fox, called on me to remember that God knows the answer to every problem.

Now, that seems simple enough, but the example that Fox gave made his point extremely practical.

Baby, if you know me, you know I love everything served with a heaping portion of practicality–otherwise, I’ll still feel hungry.

Back to Fox…

His illustration was that of a small child learning arithmetic—subtraction, to be precise.

In this case, it’s easy for a child, just learning subtraction, to solve this:

But, he will likely be totally stumped by:

AND THIS?

FORGET IT!

According to Fox, after problem #2, the child’s “faith in arithmetic collapses.”

Now, if you are reading this post, you can probably solve these problems nearly instantaneously, but our dear student will, most assuredly, need to ask for help from the teacher.

And therein lies the point.

If we ask for help from God, just like our student asks the teacher, our problems can be solved.

But, according to Fox, there’s another requirement:

When we ask for help, he cannot place any limitations on the solution!

There are 100 zillion (plus infinity) ways that God can solve our problems; do not limit it to one.

So, to sum it up…

  1. God knows the answer to every problem.
  2. Ask for help with any problem
  3. Remove all limitations from God!

And so it is!

Fibroid Tumors and Pregnancy: My Successful Pregnancy Despite Fibroids

On By Lady GIn Spirit, Storytime audios, Youtube3 Comments

Fibroid tumors during pregnancy can be extremely worrisome and problematic; but their presence does not automatically mean that you won’t have a successful pregnancy. 

In this video, I share my experience with having had numerous fibroid tumors of various sizes while I was pregnant with my daughter. 

Don’t get me wrong, there were some  difficulties, but I was under the care of an excellent physician, so my pregnancy was well managed. 

That being said it is possible to have a successful pregnancy while dealing with fibroid tumors.

Also, I had a praying Southern Mama who taught me to pray and take things day by day 🙏🏾😂
