Book Review for Thief Of Glory by Sigmund Brouwer.

I was very anxious to read Thief Of Glory because I love historical novels. Sigmund Brouwer takes you on an incredible journey as you follow young Jeremiah Prins as he embarks on many new adventures as a young boy. This is a true testament of how God can really work in ones life. I highly recommend this as a "Great Read".

Cookbook Review for Vibrant Food by Kimberley Hasslebrink

I was so eager to get this cookbook in the mail. Kimberley Hasselbrink takes you on a wonderful journey with food for all four seasons. You are encouraged as the reader and cook to think outside the box and go way beyond using just normal ingredients. I love the fact that there is a recipe for what ever season you find yourself in. I was eager to "read" my new cookbook, and even tried the recipe for Summer Berry Coconut Milk Ice Pops. I was not let down in either venture. I look forward to trying more recipes and sharing some with family and friends. I encourage anyone who likes to cook to seriously try this cookbook, You will feel the same way !!
