Southern Sunday Favorite
Join Chari at Happy to Design for Sunday favorites and Charlotte and Ginger at Blogger Spirit for Spiritual Sunday and enjoy your Sunday.
I’m not going back very far this week, because this past week has been so special. The celebration of the birth of the Son of God and the gift of salvation! This is from This past week on December 21:
Oh, Christmas Tree
Oh, Christmas Tree
How lovely are thy branches
For unto us a child is born,
unto us a son is given:
and the government shall be upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be called
Wonderful,
Counsellor,
The mighty God,
The everlasting Father,
The Prince of Peace.
Merry Christmas to all! Check out today’s lagniappe for never fail divinity.

Today’s Lagniappe: Never Fail Divinity
I had a little trouble with my divinity this past weekend. My wonderful friend from high school Tamara Gouge Ketter sent me her recipe for Never Fail Divinity. Tamara says, “This recipe was contributed to THE NINETIES COOKBOOK by the Garvin County, Oklahoma Extension homemakers by May Lacy. I made this for my dad who was a divinity aficionado and he loved it.” Thanks so much Tamara – no more trying to beat egg whites in the Southern humidity!

Hi Christi…
I’m so happy to hear that you really enjoyed your Christmas, my friend! I feel the same way…I just don’t want it to end so soon!!! Thank you so much for joining in with Sunday Favorites again this week…great post! So you did three Christmas trees? Ohh my goodness, I do good getting one decorated! Hehe! All three were so pretty but I think my favorite was the really tall, slender tree…done in red! Gorgeous!!! Thanks for sharing your recipe for divinity. I must admit, I have never made it! I make all kinds of homemade candies but not that one! It sounds easy enough though…I suppose that I should give it a try sometime!
Well my friend, so happy to hear from you today and that you had a wonderful Christmas!
Warmest wishes,
Chari @Happy To Design
