Mother Gives Birth to Girl After Nine-Month Ectopic Pregnancy, No Abortion
Thanks to Brenda at http://abortionknowthetruth.blogspot.com for this one.
- In an amazing development, one Australian mother delivered
a healthy baby girl after going through a nine-month ectopic pregnancy. For
nine months, Thangarajah carried her baby Durga in her ovary instead
of her uterus. Following a Caesarean birth, both mother and baby are
fine.
Doctors
are calling Durga a miracle baby and say the chances of both mother
and baby surviving are a million to one.- Neither
doctors nor the couple expected anything other than a normal pregnancy
and it wasn't until the planned Caesarian began that they discovered
something amiss.
Buffy's Salon: A Garden of Thoughts
- An interesting post based around Luke 8:14 painted a mental picture for me of our minds as a fertile garden wherein our thoughts grow like plants.
- Of course, the verse is talking specifically about the word of God, but for me the analogy seemed especially apt for that activity that influences us the most: what we are thinking.
- A garden needs a gardener whose job it is to root out and throw away the negative thoughts, prune those thoughts which are taking over and nurture the good thoughts that might not be able to grow strong without help.
- And minds, like gardens, are easier to maintain with a little work every day than letting them do their own thing for weeks or months and then having to bring in the bulldozer because you've let things get so out of hand.
- To carry the analogy still further, a good gardener doesn't just yank out the weeds, she plants new seeds and youthful plants that she knows will be good in the garden.
- What are you growing in your garden?
Five Minutes a Day for Fresh-Baked Bread
- The Secret: Keep Dough Refrigerated. It is easy to have fresh bread whenever you want it with only five minutes a day of active effort. Just mix the dough and let it sit for two hours. No kneading needed! Then shape and bake a loaf, and refrigerate the rest to use over the next couple weeks. Yes, weeks! The Master Recipe (below) makes enough dough for many loaves. When you want fresh-baked crusty bread, take some dough, shape it into a loaf, let it rise for about 20 minutes, then bake.
Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day
- Mix up a lightning-fast batch of moist
no-knead dough, save it in your refrigerator, tear off portions over
the next week or more, shape, and bake.
