  • Rice Cakes – rice cakes come in a number of flavors and at least two sizes. The ones pictured here are full size, but they come in a small size as well. They also come in flavors! Caramel is a nice flavor with peanut butter!
  • The Creamy Stuff – at my house, we prefer smooth, but crunchy will work just great for making perfect these perfect snacks!

A Verse To Share

I think this is just the best news. If you read the old testament, you know that the Jewish people are the chosen ones and the rest of us are not.

We know that because of Jesus, we are all children of God and those with faith in Jesus are saved. Amen.

Galatians 3: 26-27

You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ
