The Generous Wife

2009-06-25T09:55:00.005-05:00

TJ & I (haha)

A worderful friend lead me to a site, titled "The Generous Wife", about how to be a wonderful wife and what to do to "spice" things up, and just how to treat your husband! So here goes some tips! And wives...."Be Generous Wives"

I Want to Hold Your Hand : So as a tip idea ... the part about respecting your spouse and treating them and their needs with kindness and understanding. A need is a need is a need. Judging the value of your spouse's need is judging your spouse in a way. How kind it is to value them by valuing their needs (however silly the need may seem to you at the moment).

Bedroom Check : Time for another bedroom check. How romantic and lovely is your bedroom? Are there piles of laundry laying around? Not very romantic. Fold them and put them away. Piles of papers? Sort and file them. Straighten up, put on fresh sheets and set out a candle or two. Make your bedroom that special room for just the two of you, where you can talk and share and love.
... our bed is verdant. The beams of our house are cedar; our rafters are firs. Son of Songs 1:16-17 NIV

Answer Softly : When your husband is having a bad day or is just generally being testy, be sure to speak kindly and softly to him. It will make it easier for him to get back on track and it will let him know that you understand he's struggling and that you love him.
A soft answer turns away wrath ... Proverbs 15:1a NKJV

The (trying to be) Generous Wife, Kaydee

Bible Verses

2009-06-17T09:25:00.002-05:00

A good friend of mine sent me this e-mail this morning, and I just wanted to share it!

I just wanted to share these verses with you. They have really helped me lately. When I think of the things that I want for my life and marriage, and start to feel like it is impossible, I try to remember these verses.

Ephesians 3:20 God is able to do immeasurably more than all we could ask or imagine.
Psalms 37:4 Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.
1 John 5:14 And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him.
Psalm 102:17 He will listen to the prayers of the destitute, He will not reject their pleas.

Thanks Jessica! It always feels good to be "reassured" that God is there for us! :)

Shows, Shows, and more Shows

2009-05-29T12:46:00.002-05:00

First of all, I LOVE "Keeping up with the Kardashians". So I am totally looking forward for the new show, "Kourtney and Khloe take Miami". I am SUUUUUPPPEERR excited! Next, I am totally siiiiked out about "The Real Housewives" and now there is a new season that just started..."Real HouseWives of New Jersey". This one has to be my all time second favorite......

But there is nothing like "The Real Housewives of Orange County". Its the BEST!!!! But New Jersey is pretty good too!!! I don't know about ya'll but I think they need to do a Real Housewives of Dallas, Tx!!!!! :)

Summer Time-Livin's Easy!

2009-05-27T10:04:00.002-05:00

I am really sad. Summer is coming up and I have a job. :( haha This is the first summer that I have had a "real job" and I don't want to work during the summer time. I want to lay out everyday, go to the pool, and get a tan!!! I guess I could be thankful that I "even" have a job...but I think I would rather be out getting a tan, personally, hahah!
I want to be a stay-at-home-wifey! That would go over good. "Hey TJ, I have decided to quit my job and be a stay-at-home-wife! Aren't you excited?" He would say "Yes honey, that sounds like a wonderful plan for you, whatever you want" (in a perfect world, that would happen). Well thats not gonna happen, so I mine as well stop talking about it.
I am still sad though. Maybe he will be like, "honey quit your job, you need a tan" HAHAHA

Enter at your own Risk :)

5 Minute Chocolate Mug Cake

2009-05-12T12:14:00.000-05:00

5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE

4 tablespoons flour

4 tablespoons sugar

2 tablespoons cocoa

1 egg 3 tablespoons milk

3 tablespoons oil

3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)

A small splash of vanilla extract

1 large coffee mug (Micro Safe)

Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well. Add the egg and mix thoroughly. Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.. Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again. Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts. The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed! Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.EAT ! (this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous). And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world? Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night!
