I can’t believe the way time gets away from me, but it’s happened again. I wrote a pre-pub testimonial for Raising Real Men, after I read the book several months ago. I sent it to the publisher, but never got it posted here.
The book is now available and it’s high time I get to telling you about it.
Although the process of Raising Real Men is not always “fun”, reading the book was a delight. As a mother of 4 sons (and 6 daughters), I was encouraged as over and over I caught myself saying, Yes!, to both the description of the behavior and wiring of boys and the proper biblical response and direction they need.
If you’ve got sons, you should read Raising Real Men.
A few others, whose opinions I value, agree:
“Hal and Melanie Young have six sons and are disciples of Jesus. They know how to raise real men. This book is a treasure trove of practical tips to help you to raise your sons right. It will answer your questions, help you avoid mistakes, bring them up in the Lord, and understand them. I highly recommend it.”

“Hal and Melanie have put together a wonderful, warmhearted, and practical little book on raising sons into men of God – a must-read for any parent blessed with boys.”
Kevin Swanson
Father of five children
Director of Generations with Vision
“Raising boys can be a tremendous challenge for parents, especially when you have more than an few. We know that God designed them much differently than girls because of the role that He has chosen for them in life. Hal and Melanie in RAISING REAL MEN, have approached this subject from a Biblical perspective and have been true to the Biblical principles laid down for raising boys. However, once the principle has been laid out, then they bring a unique practical aspect to raising boys where the rubber meets the road. This is a book that will give parents a clear road map to follow for having the greatest possibility of success as parents prepare boys for their God-given role in adulthood. This is a book that every family should have no matter the number of boys and even those families without boys as the book gives tremendous insight into understanding how boys think and why they act as they do. This book meets a crying need in an area where there is very little specific direction. Thank you Hal and Melanie for this outstanding work of the Lord.”

Hallelujah Acres promotes a lifestyle of eating that we recommend. Many have had their health restored from nearly every type of chronic disease you can name on their Hallelujah Diet. We’ve recommended and offered their books and Barley Max for many years as great resources to help you eat to regain health.
They are currently doing a program called “60 Days to a Hallelujah Waistline”. Through this program they are sharing daily short video encouragement, and weekly longer video webinars online. This week’s video had excellent information on juicing and green smoothies – why, how, what juicers and such. Same information I’ve shared with you. Just reinforcement from another source. If I’ve not convinced you, take a listen to what they have to say. 
Today’s the day our monthly food order came in. It’s so nice to have your groceries delivered to your door – well actually driveway.
I’ve got some recipes I’ve been waiting for this for. This month’s food order included more raw nuts and seeds than usual – running out of a few things, and adding some different ones. Also, there’s a whole lot more fresh produce than in the picture – actually cases of most of things pictured here, but that wouldn’t have fit in the picture very well.
Anyhow, I figured you’d all rather see this picture than the one of the rabbit #2 son shot a couple weeks ago, and then the dog bit its head off. :-/
Mostly running! Well, not running to fast, it’s been frigidly cold here until this past week. We’re just starting to thaw out – and now this week is getting colder again.
Sorry I’ve been so absent here the last couple weeks. I’ve been posting a ton of new info over at the Good for You-Naturally!™ for Life Course & Community, and just don’t have enough online time to write material for several places at once. Join us for the Course & Community today and find a New You in the New Year! Weight Loss – Better Health – do it for your Family, for Life!
But as for an update here, so far the New Year has brought:
Well, that’s about all the events for the last couple of weeks. Time to hit the hay, that food truck will be here early tomorrow morning.
I’ll try to do better at updating, but probably not with many articles before the Good for You-Naturally!™ for Life Course & Community is over.
For Me & My House,
Lisa

In honor of Brandi’s visit this week, I’m posting her favorite salad. We served it when she was here. This is a great salad for your health. It’s high in cruciferous vegetables which have anti-cancer properties.
Brandi Salad
2 cups chopped broccoli (organic, if possible)
2 cups chopped cauliflower (organic, if possible)
2 cups chopped celery (organic, if possible)
1/4 cup chopped carrots (organic, if possible)
1/4 cup chopped onion – green, red, white or yellow (organic, if possible)
optional, but a great Good for You-Naturally!™ addition – raw chopped pecans or walnuts – large handful
Toss all together.
Add dressing and mix well.
Dressing:
1/2 cup homemade mayonnaise
1/2 cup homemade ranch
extra pinch of garlic powder
(You could probably use 1 cup ranch only. It would be a little more “seasoned” than the mix above.)
Variation:
Substitute 1 1/2 cup fresh or frozen peas (uncooked) for the celery and carrots (but then it wouldn’t be Brandi’s Salad)
Happy New Year!!
