Green Bay Packers Cookbook and the Unofficial Giants Cookbook, Don't Stop Believing, by, Gina Meyers

The Unofficial Green Bay Packers Cookbook and The Unofficial Giants Cookbook, Don’t Stop Believing: $4.99 and $9.99

Gina Meyers is best known as the author of The Unofficial Harry Potter Cookbook and Love at First Bite: The Unofficial Twilight Cookbook.  But there’s more to this classically-trained chef than just fantasy novels.  Meyers has also produced cookbooks for fans of two winning teams:  the Green Bay Packers and the San Francisco Giants.  And while the “Laces Out Bacon Wrapped Scallops” in the Packers book are just the same as the “Don’t Stop Believing Bacon Wrapped Scallops” in the Giants book, both are also “healthy and tasty.”

Life Lessons From My Pastor, "Fishing With The Master"

Peter from the bible had many obstacles. He had to overcome the reality of fatigue, it became challenging for him to do the right thing.

But remember when you rely on the experience of the master:

1) He will give you greater blessings.
2) He will give you a greater calling.
3) He will give you greater faith.

Remember to be a fisher for men, not for fish.

So when they pulled their boats up on shore, they left everything to follow the master.
They left the fish, they left their home, their family, their jobs, their livlihood. To Follow the Lord Jesus Christ. So Gob asks us to obey him even when we don't feel like it.

BBQ Beans, excerpt from Tailgate Teasers, by, Gina Meyers

BBQ Beans

8 ounces of bacon (can use turkey bacon or Applewood smoked pepper bacon)

Two 28-ounce cans of baked beans

2 red bell peppers, diced

1 yellow and 1 green bell pepper, diced (can use orange bell pepper too)

1 red onion, finely chopped

¼ cup of ketchup

9 ounces of barbecue sauce (your choice for flavor)

6 ounces of molasses, dark

¼ cup of honey

¼ cup of brown sugar

Salt and pepper to taste

(optional) ¼ cup of maple syrup

Directions: cut bacon into small pieces. Heat in a frying pan over medium high heat or cook in the microwave for 3-4 minutes (on a microwave safe plate with a paper towel covering the bacon). Cook until bacon is crisp, set aside.

Heat a large pot over medium heat, add baked beans and bacon and the bacon drippings and bring to a simmer. Add the diced pepper and onions and all of the remaining ingredients and simmer on low for 30 minutes. You may also add the ingredients to a crock pot and cook on warm for a couple of hours.
