For all celebrating the resurrection of Jesus today, here is one of my favorite hymns. My grandmother told me once that when she was babysitting a 3-year-old Alison on Easter in Pennsylvania many years ago, she caught me sitting very close to the TV, intently watching a program that seemed intense for a child. She said, “Alison what are you watching?” Apparently I was watching an Easter history special. I turned to her with equal intensity and replied, “What’s the matter Granny? Haven’t you ever heard of the resurrection of Jesus Christ?!”
“I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless
Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness
Where is death's sting?
Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if Thou abide with me.”
—“Abide With Me” by Henry Francis Lyte
We got back late and knew we were close to chicken predation time. My best idea was to tell the kids to run screaming toward the back pasture. We didn’t lose any animals so maybe it worked? At least it looked funny. I’m sure the neighbors were a little bewildered - or not because we are probably already known as “those neighbors”. 😂
Anyway, you gotta have teeth to scream “GIT OUTTA HUR” at foxes and coyotes so go get that fermented cod liver / concentrated butter oil from Green Pasture! It healed my chronic battle with cavities. It’s also packed with anti-inflammatory omega-3s. We take it every day. It has been part of my daily routine for 15 years.

Who is ready for Thanksgiving dinner?? I am 45 and never knew you could just wear goggles while cutting onions. Big thanks to my six-year-old who figured it all out on her own.
I protect my teeth so I can eat all that pumpkin pie by taking a daily dose of the fermented cod liver /concentrated butter oil from @greenpastureproducts - I used to get chronic cavities and started taking this about 15 years ago. Long before I changed my diet. It swiftly ended my problem. You get 10% off with promo code “ALISON” at check out. https://greenpasture.org/
Sassy takes smaller bites now that she is 33 but she still has all her teeth! Sundae (our milk goat) only has teeth on the bottom jaw (normal for goats) so she typically loses the apple eating contest.
Speaking of teeth, I used to get cavities all the time. I was likely vitamin D deficient. But I may have been vitamin K deficient as well. Did you know that you need vitamin K2 to absorb vitamin D3 into your bones? I started taking the fermented cod liver/concentrated butter oil from @greenpastureproducts and my problem swiftly ended. That was 15 years ago but I still take it today. You get 10% off with promo code “ALISON” at check out. https://greenpasture.org/
