Good news!

So far so good. J is feeling much better. He made it all night with no throwing up. And his fever is gone. Thank you God! There is a small part of me who thinks it may not be over but for now I am enjoying the break. Thanks for all the prayers yesterday. I really appreciate them (so does J).
I realized something yesterday. Not only am I an emotional eater, but I am also an emotional baker. After making molasses cookies, banana bread and biscuits it dawned on me that baking calms me down. It wouldn't be so bad if I could bake and not eat the goodies, but it just doesn't work that way. Anyone want a snack? I have plenty to share.

And I wanted to share the recipe for the Pumpkin Cream Cheese muffins I made the other day.....and if anyone plans to make them I highly suggest storing them in the refrigerator. They are much tastier cold. YUM.

    I called before I read this and you didn't answer so I thought he was still puking. I am so happy he made it thru the night so you were able to get must needed rest as well. I will keep the prayers goinng and talk to you later.

    Yeah for J (and you!)

    Those muffins sound fantastic!

    I make huge batches of soup when I'm stressed. I freeze tons & give it away, cause my guys aren't big soup eaters.

    Glad your son is feeling better! Yay! Your recipe sounds tasty! I'm an emotional eater, too, so these diet pills don't work for me. They make me feel full, but I still eat anyway. Grrr.
