Sweet Adeleine

I went to summer camp last week and they had a theme chapter of the Bible, Hebrews 11. This chapter talks of the faith of many people in the Bible including Abraham, Noah, Sarah and many others. We were to memorize as many verses of this chapter as possible, which earned points for our team. I did not manage to memorize more than eight verses, but I liked verse one of chapter 11. In English, this says "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." The whole chapter is a great testimony of the faith of these people, but verse one is a great encouragement to keep faith, even if we can't see the current path ahead of us.

I stated in my post yesterday that I would write about a tradition we have for Fourth of July. Our tradition is very similar to many other  people's tradition, with a slight twist. That's right, we make s'mores. But not just any s'mores, we recently started making a recipe called s'mores dip. I thought that I would share this very simple recipe with you. For this recipe, you will need: 1 bag or more chocolate chip morsels marshmallows graham crackers To begin making this, start your oven on its "broil" setting and move the rack to the top notch. Meanwhile, do this:      Once the marshmallows are placed, put the skillet on the top rack of the oven and let it broil for a few minutes. Keep an eye on it though! Marshmallows will brown, then blacken, rather quickly. Pull out and test the chocolate once the marshmallows are the desired color; the chocolate may not have quite melted yet. If this is the case, make sure the oven is turned off, then...

Fourth of July is coming up tomorrow, and I thought I would put out a survey asking what you do each year for family activities, games, food, etc. Come back tomorrow and I'll share with you one of our traditions!
