New Cuisinart Cookware & and easy Chicken Salad Recipe
Hi friends! Today’s video features the unboxing of my new multi clad cookware by Cuisinart. And I will also show you how to make a delicious and easy chicken salad. I ordered this cookware as a Christmas present for myself this year. It is replacing our 25-year-old set of revere ware that we received as a wedding gift in 1995. I tend to use things forever. But it was time for some new equipment. I hope this lasts as long as the previous pots and pans did. The Cuisinart multi-clad was highly rated, and that’s why I purchased it. In all, there are 12 pieces. It is oven safe and…

Excellent reading. And the second quote is- “The music…
The Importance of Saying “Thanks”
The 4 steps to writing a thank you note. Step 1: Address the recipient by name and say thank you, be sure to mention specifically what you are thanking them for. Dear Lisa,Thank you so much for the beautiful yellow rose bush. There is no need to write ‘I am writing to thank you’. That is self-evident.

Wisdom from Proverbs 23:7
7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee. This is one of my favorite Bible verses and I think of it often when my head is not in the right place.

The thoughts and inclinations of the heart shape the reality of who you are. They shape your thinking which will ultimately shape your actions. What does a bible verse have in common with style? Well, a lot actually.…
