Guilt Free Baking by Gee Charman

Everyone loves sweets, who doesn't?  After all, it's been proven that sugar stimulates the same brain chemical as drugs in that it gives you this high/satisfaction after it's consumed.

However, with sweets comes the danger of obesity, which our country has a huge problem with.








When I saw this book, I was intrigued by the title and the author's preface. Her premise is not to cut out all the fats/sugar but to use acceptable alternatives, like fruit puree along with minimal fat and sugar.

As I read through this book, I found the recipes to be easy and ingredients normal staples.  These are simple recipes but with outstanding results.

The only thing I wish the author would have added was amount of sugar content per serving, which I would find more helpful

Otherwise this book is a must have for those who want to indulge but without much of he guilt.

Walking with God in the Season of Motherhood by Melissa Kruger.

Motherhood, what a joy it is yet it comes with much sacrifice.  As I have witnessed my wife, this season of motherhood, she has sacrificed her spiritual growth.  It has been up and down spiritually for her and only now as our kids are older is she able to retake her spiritual life back.

When I saw this book, I said this book is definitely for my wife.










Author's Bio

After perusing this book, this book is definitely full of substance.  It is a bible study book.  It's not a one page daily devotional book. This is broken out into different aspect of faith, such as joy, faith, etc. and each week for five days, there's a bible study with questions that pertains to a specific aspect of faith and how it pertains to the season of motherhood.

This book is not for those who are looking for a quick devotional but for someone who is looking to delve deeper into the word and how the word applies to this season of motherhood.

That is the challenging part of my wife to be able to make time and do a bible study, otherwise this is the book that she needs. I would highly recommend this book to mothers who are ready to study the Word.

I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
