This is my family and we are the Maks. I love my Lord Jesus Christ and I want to glorify Him in everything that I do. I live for Him because He died for me. He alone deserves all my praise and worship. I originally created this blog to keep family and friends, especially those that are far away, updated regarding the events of our lives. But now, I use it to keep track of things that we did through the years (as my memories aren't as good as it used to be) and to share the many loves and interests. I hope that by reading, some how, you will be able to see the love of God through the blessings and trials of our lives. I hope that you will desire to have a closer relationship with Him. He definitely wants a relationship with you.
My hobbies are cooking, baking, scrap-booking, running, and shopping. I believe in clean and healthy eating especially when it comes to what to feed kids. This means I try not to feed my kids hydrogenated oil (AKA trans fat), high fructose corn syrup, nitrates, etc... I just can't wrap my head around why we have to add chemicals to food. This is not to say that I only feed them organic food or like to shop at Whole Foods. In fact, I don't shop at Whole Foods, but I do love the farmers' market where I can get fresh and pesticide free produces. I like to make things from scratch because then I can ensure that I am not feed my kids chemicals that they shouldn't be ingesting. I am not a tyrant about this, if my kids eat Cheestos or something else with trans fat, I am not going to ask them to spit it out. But to the best of my ability I want to keep their young bodies clean. There is ALWAYS a better substitute to what they like to eat. I am so blessed that I have a family that's willing to try my cooking. That inspires me to bake more, venture into making things I have never made before, and creating healthier food. It is possible to eat clean food on a budget using fresh and natural ingredients.
