In the Bible, Proverbs 31:22 says, “she watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.” I love that verse. It reminds me that I am to keep watch over what goes on in my home and to be proactive as I care for myself and my family.
There is something
calming and peaceful
knowing your roots run deep
and will hold you steady
in the winds of life

Hi, I’m Tracy.
I love to laugh, eat good food, take care of my family and spend lots of time outdoors.
In 2005 we moved from the mid-south to the gulf coast where we lost practically everything in hurricane Katrina. To boot, we had only been in our home for nine months when she hit. A FEMA trailer was our temporary residence for two and a half years, sharing the meager space with two full grown labs. The “coziness” brought us closer together as a family. I praise the LORD for taking care of us through that journey, but more importantly, all that I learned during that trying time.
God is always good!
I am a professional baker, recipe creator, instructor/teacher, Bible study creator, health and life coach, master gardener and professional seamstress. When baking/cooking, I am always aiming to make it as healthy and natural as possible; you know, the way God designed.
And by the way, it is possible to make chocolate cake healthy!
I have an awesome husband, two wonderful children and four grandchildren. Homeschooling was my life for over 18 amazing years. Now, I teach classes relating to nutrition, milling your own flour, family, the home and Bible studies.
As I look back over my life, I am so
thankful for the LORD’s love and faithfulness.
I’m excited about what’s ahead!
May I encourage you to appreciate and savor everyday, because
time goes by so quickly,
you just might miss something wonderful!
My best thinking is done at the beach!
(Yes, we live on the gulf coast. Love it!)
Everyone needs a moment to relax and regroup. Reclining on the beach, wiggling my toes in the sand, listening to the soft swish of the water is one of my favorite spots for just such a thing.
What about you?
Take some time to maybe, well, . . . do nothing. Set aside the weight of the world for a few minutes of, well, . . . nothing. I promise you will feel energized to do the next thing.
