Flavour Giveaway

At the risk of sounding like a Prepped! Groupie - seriously, I just keep going on about it! I just must recommend the Plum and Cardamom Crumble creation- it's sooo yummy! And so, I am giving away a humble and yet delicious packet of Green Cardamoms.
I love that the flavours are a paradox of being traditional and yet refreshingly new when combined together.

I'm now making Cardamom sugar and can't wait to try the other recipes. In the meantime, check out my reviews blog for how I got on with the crumble Truly Good Woman Reviews 'The crumbs of Crumble'.

The winner will be chosen by random number generator - just leave a comment to say which flavours are inspiring you in the kitchen and how they can be used. Entries close at 10pm on Monday 8th August.

(A chance of winning the Giveaway is only open to UK residents - sorry!)

Who is the Woman of Proverbs 31?

Read Proverbs 31: 10-31 

She sounds amazing doesn't she.
I aspire to be such a talented woman who keeps God in the centre, and her family so well cared for.
I look to the example she gives and yet I know that I fall drastically short. For as much as I'm loving my job I can't say that I'm eager to get started - apparently I function much better after 11am...not much chance of a start like that in teaching hey!
And, I had set out with this blog hoping to share God moments and for it to be an encouragement in how we can all be truly good woman - yet looking over my posts I see that they are 90% about food! Whereas the truly good woman is not overly preoccupied with fancy foods:

She's up before dawn, preparing breakfast 

for her family and organizing her day.

I might manage breakfast myself if the thought of it doesn't make me feel sick (it never used to, what is this?) but the most I do for the Hubba is make him his morning cup of tea, although come to think of it I do feed the cats...
Anyhow, I'm not about to beat myself up but rather look with you over the coming weeks, at the example she gives and what this might look like in our 21st century.

To help me on my way I will use the commentry of Proverbs 31 from Grace Communion International 

Who is your inspiration for a Truly Good Woman, I'd love to hear from you.

Sneak Peak of the GIVEAWAY!

So my January GIVEAWAY is Karen Voight's 'Voight: Precision training for body and mind'. As posted on Monday on Truly Good Woman Reviews, this isn't a new book but it is great at targeting those problem areas. Now although, I wouldn't necessarily want to look as muscular as Voight, her exercises do develop a more honed, svelte figure whatever your shape. 

Here's a sneak peak:
