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
Jack makes a mean chocolate pudding! This recipe is healthy and delicious. Two avocados. One-half cup milk. Four tablespoons of both cocoa powder and maple syrup. Add a dash of vanilla extract. Blend and enjoy! Teaching a kid to cook is a messy activity, but it is so worth it! Before you know it, they’re not only making their own breakfast, they want to make it for you too. I think we may be compelled to say “no I’ll just do it” when our kids ask to help, as we are all so busy in today’s modern life, but if we just put in a little elbow grease now, it will return dividends in the future. And not just in the kitchen - in their soul.
And you know what else comes in chocolate flavor? The fermented cod liver/concentrated butter oil from Green Pasture. I prefer the cinnamon tingle flavor, but if you are a chocolate lover, give it a try. It’s full of healthy omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins A, D & K. I have been taking it for about 15 years. I used to get chronic cavities and now...
I took the kids peach picking at Graham Farms in Umatilla, Florida. If you’re in the area, don’t miss it! They’re the best u-pick peaches this side of heaven. Mary Graham explains in this video the “insider” way they cut a peach easily and quickly. Don’t forget to grab your fermented cod liver/butter oil and wash it down with all that peach juice!

This is a short clip from Sunday's show in case you didn't make it to the end. We had a mama fox and 4-5 kits move into an old gopher tortoise hole, about 20 yards from the chicken coop. Every single farmer I talked to told me to shoot the foxes as they're notorious chicken thieves. I chose a different route. Thankfully I have a very loud dog and lots of energy from all the good nutrition in Green Pasture's fermented cod liver/butter oil blend - so I was prepared for taking on the fox - and didn't lose a single chicken.
