How To Make Your Own Lavender Massage Oil & Tea

   I’ve enjoyed the fragrance of lavender for years, but it wasn’t until about 3 years ago that I started to make my own infused oil.  My neighbor grows bushes of organic lavender and asked me if I wanted some. 

My neighbor's lavender bushes.

 I dried a lot of it, but then I thought why not try to make my own massage oil?  Last year I found out that the flowers can be used as a tea, so I added lavender to a blend of peppermint, lemon balm, feverfew, and calendula.  

Lavender’s Medicinal Properties

 Lavender Enchantment  gave a great list of lavender’s properties: “Lavender has been used for centuries as an herbal remedy. ...  It was used for everything from a nerve stimulant and restorative, to relief of muscular aches and pains and sprains, to inducing peaceful slumber, to easing  the ache of rheumatism and nervous headache to promoting the appetite, to relieving flatulence. ...  It is the flowers of fresh or dried, that contain the medicinal properties of lavender."  

How to Make  Lavender Tea

  First, it is important to dry lavender for 7-10 days.  They can be placed on paper or hung in bunches suspended from a line like what I did this summer.

  Steep 1-2 teaspoons of lavender in a covered mug of hot water for 10 minutes! The websites I've checked say that this tea is taken for:  stress, exhaustion, headaches, upset stomach, colds, and insomnia. The above sites have other things listed that you can check out.  

 Lavender Infused Massage Oil

I've checked a lot of sites and this amazing flower is good for a lot of things besides reducing stress and strain:  
use lavender oil for a massage for soothing and calming the nerves, reducing stress, relieving muscle tension, stimulating circulation,  and promoting sleep.  A site also said it works as an anti-fungal and antiseptic.

Lavender air freshener, infused oil, sachet, and potpourri

1.  Put lavender that's dried for about 2 days into a glass jar.

2.  Fill with extra virgin olive oil. Make sure all the lavender is covered!

3.  Put on a window sill for a month and try to shake it every day or two.

4. Strain and put in blue/amber jars.

 I have made lavender infused oil twice, and it is very aromatic and great for muscle pains.  I have used this oil for helping relieve back pain from my sons' athletic injuries.  Both of my sons told me that it helped them, but on the other hand, maybe it's the free massage that they wanted!  

You can also use this massage oil on your chest when you have a cold as its said to help relieve congestion.

Acapulco Delight - A Great Mexican Enchilada

     Don't you like family cookbooks? They're probably the best source of tried and true recipes.  I still have one that I picked up about 25 years ago when I was working as a business teacher at a private Christian school. Last week  I made one of our family's favorite recipes from that book--Acapulco Delight.  

 I made some modifications to this recipe because I never seemed to have green chili salsa on hand, so I used tomato sauce.  I am going to give you both ways and you can decide which one you like the best!  

   When I found out I had celiac disease, I started to make a lot of my  sauces and dressings from scratch.  Just in case you wonder when you see the pictures,  I made more sauce so I could have both a 9 x 13 and an 8 x 8.

Delicious & Gluten Free Acapulco Delight

1. Brown meat and veggies:  Put 1 lb of hamburger into a stainless steel skillet and brown, drain off any fat. Add 1 chopped medium onion  and  2 cloves of minced garlic.

2.  Mix Gluten free taco seasoning that equals 1 packet:  Mix in a small glass bowl 2 T chili powder, 1 T paprika, 1 T cumin, 1 t salt, and 3 T chopped cilantro.

3.  Add sauce:  
(1)  Mix together in a saucepan 1 14.5 oz can of tomato sauce, 2 cups of water, and the spices. Simmer the sauce about 10 minutes 
(2) Then stir in  2 T cornstarch that's been mixed with  4 T of water and stir back in to help thicken the sauce. Let the sauce simmer a few more minutes.  
(3)  Taste it and adjust any seasonings. Often I put in 1/2 - 1 cup of salsa to give it a bit more kick.

4.  Meanwhile:  Grate about 3-4 cups of cheddar or colby-jack cheese, slice up a large can of olives, and slice about 2-3 green onions.

5.  Assemble the casserole in a 9 x 13 pan:
(1)  Pour in  half of the meat mixture and spread out evenly.
(2)  Layer cut corn tortillas over the top.  
(3)  Sprinkle cheese over the tortillas.
(4)  Put another layer of cut corn tortillas on top of the cheese.
(5)  Spread over these tortillas a large can of refried beans.
(6)  With a spatula spread a pint of sour cream on top of the beans. (You can use less if you like)
(7)  Sprinkle over the sour cream the sliced green onions and olives.

(8)  Layer cut corn tortillas on top of the green onions and olives.

(9) Cover with the remaining sauce and sprinkle cheese on top.

6.  Baking instructions:  This casserole bakes at 350 for 30 minutes.  I usually cover mine with foil.

7.  Condiment Platter: The recipe suggests serving this casserole with a condiment platter so that people can add lettuce, tomatoes, avocados, sour cream, and salsa on top of their  cooked casserole.  It definitely is good without it, so do what works for you!

The original Acapulco Delight Recipe - Instead of using tomato sauce, in the original recipe, you use 2 cans of Ortego green chili salsa and 1 package of taco mix. The recipe also calls for 2 pounds of hamburger, but I always try to cut down on how much red meat we eat.  I've done it with 1 pound for years.

What is the Connection Between the Kingdom & the Parable of the Sower in Matthew 13:3-23?

    What do seeds, hardened dirt, rocks, and thorns, have to do with the Lord establishing His heavenly kingdom on earth?  This sentence on page 438 from the Chapter 36 of the Life-Study of Matthew helped make this clear to me: 

 “In this parable we see that Christ established the kingdom of the heavens not by fighting or teaching, but by sowing Himself as the seed of life into believing people so that the kingdom of the heavens may grow up” (Lee, Witness. Life-Study of Matthew. Anaheim: Living Stream Ministry, 1977, Print).

   When I think of someone setting up a kingdom, I think of thrones, scepters, and mandates; I don’t think of seeds and different kinds of ground.  The Lord knew the laws of nature that He had established--if you plant an acorn, it will grow into an oak tree. This is one of those amazing mysteries of God's creation. It never ceases to amaze me that such huge trees grow from such tiny seeds!

     In the same way, God likens His own life in this parable to a divine seed that is planted into the good earth of our heart.  I got help when I heard a believer share in a meeting that there’s divine DNA in the seed that God has planted into our hearts.  And this seed is encoded with everything of God’s life and nature. And when we spiritually water and take care of this divine life, it WILL grow and develop. You can't reverse a divine law!!

College Student Dinner Experiences

We Love Opening our Home to College Students!

       For the past five years we’ve opened our home for college students to gather together for dinner and a Bible study. Our older son graduated from college in 2009 ago and the other one is finishing up.  During their college years our sons were part of our university's Christian club, which they called Christian Students' Association. So having other students into our home has been a fun thing for our  family. Over these years we’ve had Russian, Hispanic, Filipino, Chinese, Korean, Thai, Taiwanese, Egyptian, and of course other American students around our dinner table. Every year it’s been a different mix, and we’ve greatly enjoyed each set of students that have come.   I usually make some type of Thai curry and Asian BBQ chicken (either Chinese, Korean, or Thai!).  In the coming weeks I’ll post some of these delicious curries. During these years a few other moms have helped cook for the 5-6 students that come each week. 

Getting into the Bible & Spiritual Writings

     During some years we’ve done topical Bible studies, and one year we read through most of the Gospel of John.  We relied a lot on the footnotes from the Recovery Version because this version is an excellent Bible study tool!    This spring we had some new believers in our Bible study so for most of that quarter and summer quarter we read excerpts from chapters in the book Lessons for New Believers which is a group of messages given by Witness Lee in 1959. If you want to check this online, you can do that by clicking on this link for Living Stream Ministry Books. The books are listed alphabetically. All of us were inspired particularly by the five chapters called The Practice of Fellowship.  These chapters speak in detail about spending time each morning in prayer and reading the Bible.

Meeting an Egyptian Student & His Discovering Rhema's Free Literature Website

     Another highlight that happened this spring was when Tom who works as a mortgage broker  met an Egyptian Christian at an international college dinner, and he started coming on Thursday nights. This summer we’ve enjoyed his bringing some Egyptian dishes to share with us; I liked trying the falafel. It was a neat experience to see his joy when some friends returned from California with some books in Arabic that were published by Living Stream Ministry.  He was also happy when we showed him Rhema’s new website, which is a site devoted to providing free Christian literature in 18 languages, and he saw that Arabic was one of the choices!  

Hearing Sharing from the Brothers Who Work with Christians on Campus at the University of Texas

     About a year after opening our home for these dinners, my husband and I with some others flew to Austin, Texas  in June 2007 to hear some other believers from the Christians on Campus club at the University of Texas share their enjoyment and experiences of working with college students.  The heart of these brothers for the college age is compelling, and their speaking which uses examples from the Lord's ministry in the Gospels and that of the early believers in Acts along with the rest of the New Testament has both encouraged us and given us a view of the Lord's heart for people. We also went again to Austin in 2009.  This fellowship over the last  four years has been like the fuel in our tank that keeps us motivated.

Tonight's  Student Dinner 

     Tonight is one of our dinners, and I already have some ribs marinating with some Korean BBQ sauce that I am trying for the first time and some Thai chicken with pineapple and basil.  I just spoke with the Korean student that comes, and he's looking forward to see how they come out!   Besides being a lot of fun to know, these students have been my best food critics to see if I'm getting the taste right!   Anyway, after eating dinner together, we enjoy even more the time we have reading Bible, fellowshipping spiritual matters, and praying for each other.  It has definitely become a highlight of my week and  my Christian experience!

Seeing the Battle Between the Two Kingdoms in Matthew 12:26-28?

       Many authors like  C.S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien centered their classics on a battle between two kingdoms. The Bible reveals that this battle is between the kingdom of the heavens and the kingdom of darkness. These two kingdoms are brought to light in Matthew 12:22-37, and in Chapter 33 of the Life-Study of Matthew Witness Lee shares on pages 412-413 about this battle: 

  “Chapter 12 of Matthew occupies a special place in the New Testament because it reveals that Satan has a kingdom, that Satan is the strong man usurping all the God-created people, and that in order to take people out of his usurping hand, there is the need to bind him.  The way to bind the strong man is by fasting and praying [Matthew 17:21].  The battle unveiled in Chapter 12 is not seen in the foregoing 11 chapters...There are two kingdoms on the earth: one is the kingdom of darkness, and the other is the kingdom of the heavens.  Therefore there is the need to fight the battle” (Lee, Witness. Life-Study of Matthew. Anaheim: Living Stream Ministry, 1977, Print).

     Through this chapter it seems the Lord is giving us a window to see the spiritual scene behind many earthly situations.  It may look like just some nasty name calling is going on here, but actually the enemy was obviously behind them trying to frustrate the heavenly King from establishing His kingdom on this earth. 

     Surely the Lord is showing the disciples one of the keys to bring God’s kingdom to the earth is to not only to pray “Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven,” but also “Lord, bind the strong man and plunder his house.” This reminds me of what the Lord said in Matthew 16:19   "I will give to you the keys of the kingdom of the heavens, and whatever you bind on the earth, shall be been bound in the heavens, and whatever you loose on the earth shall have been loosed in the heavens."

Our Best Gluten Free Recipes for Grilling Salmon

     Salmon is by far my favorite fish, and over the years I have learned some ways of cooking it that are so delicious.  Fish recipes for the most part are easy to adapt to a gluten free diet. Several years ago my sister-in-law Vicki gave me the best recipe for fish I've ever had.  She picked it up when she was a bookkeeper for a fishing company in Seattle. 

 When I was at my daughter's last weekend, we barbecued some salmon. This wasn't some ordinary store bought salmon. My son-in-law's boss had chartered plane with some others into a remote fishing spot in upper British Columbia.

 The fish his boss had given them was from an over 40 pound salmon that he had caught!  Here's a picture of my daughter holding up that chunk that shows you how big that salmon must have been.


 My daughter made a change to our family recipe.   First I'll give you the original recipe from my sister-in-law:

• Sour Cream Salmon or Halibut Recipe

1.  Prepare fish:  Rinse off 1 pound salmon or halibut.  Put in 9 x 13 pan and mix together 1/4 c of rice mirin and 1 t salt and pour over the fish and let marinate for 1+ hours, then drain.  Put fish in large piece of foil.


2.  Prepare topping:  Mix together 1/8 cup of mayonnaise and 1/8 cup of sour cream and 1/4 cup of minced sweet onion.  Spoon over the fish and then sprinkle with paprika.  


3.  Grill the fish:  Put fish on your grill and cook at medium high heat for 20-25 minutes or until the fish flakes.  You can also bake this at 350 for 20-25 minutes.

• Janah's Variation of Sour Cream Salmon

1.  Prepare fish:  Rinse off 1 pound salmon. or halibut.  Put fish in large piece of foil.

2.  Prepare topping:   
(1)  Spread  3- 4 T of  mayonnaise over the salmon.  
(2)  Mince 4-5 cloves of garlic, mince 1/4 of a diced sweet onion and scatter over the surface of the salmon.  
(3)  Sprinkle with salt and pepper.  

3.  Grill the fish: 
(1)   Put fish on your grill and cook at medium high heat for 20-25 minutes or until the fish flakes.  
(2)  You can also bake this at 350 for 20-25 minutes. 
(3)  The vegetable kabobs are brushed with oil and spices if desired and added the last 5-6 minutes and turned after 2-3 minutes.

Here's a picture of our plates.   The salmon was served over rice. And yes it was delicious!

• Tamari Sauce Salmon Recipe

1.  Prepare fish:  Rinse off 1 pound salmon.   Put fish in large piece of foil.

2.  Prepare topping:  Mix together  4 T tamari (gluten free soy sauce), 4 T brown sugar, 1/2 t minced ginger, and 1 t sesame oil.  Spoon over the salmon. 

3.  Grill the fish:  Put fish on your grill and cook at medium high heat for 20-25 minutes or until the fish flakes.  You can also bake this at 350 for 20-25 minutes.

• Citrus Salmon Recipe

1.  Prepare fish:  Rinse off 1 pound salmon.   Put fish in large piece of foil.


2.  Prepare topping:  Mix together the juice and zest of 1 lemon, the zest of 1 orange, 4 cloves of minced garlic, and 2 T of olive oil.  Spoon this over the salmon.   Sprinkle with sat and pepper.

3.  Grill the fish:  Put fish on your grill and cook at medium high heat for 20-25 minutes or until the fish flakes.  You can also bake this at 350 for 20-25 minutes.

Fantastic Gluten Free Blueberry Pancakes

For months after I was diagnosed with celiac disease I didn't eat pancakes, but I missed them so much I started searching for different recipes and trying them out.I really like this recipe that comes from my daughter-in-law's family cookbook that they made in 2005 for a family reunion. It was easy to make modifications.

 Gluten Free Blueberry Pancakes 

1.  Mix together the dry ingredients - Put in a large mixing bowl the following:  
(1) 1 1/2 cups of gluten free flour--I like to use a combination of 1/3 cup of sorghum flour, 1/3 cup of brown rice flour,  1/3 cup of tapioca flour, 1/4 cup of white rice flour, 1/4 cup almond meal or flaxseed meal
(2)  Stir in  2 T sugar, 3 tsp. baking powder, 1/2 tsp. salt.

2.  In a separate bowl:  Combine 2 eggs, 1 cup milk/water, and 2 T olive oil.  

3.  Combine ingredients:  Add to the dry ingredients being careful not to over-mix.  Add 1+ cup of blueberries.

4.  Cooking pancakes:  (1)  Put a bit of butter or spray the pan to keep pancakes from sticking.  You have to spray almost after every pancake. 
(2)   Put 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the batter onto your skillet.
(3)  Cook until the bubbles start to turn into holes and then flip them over.

Here's what they looked like, and yes, they were delicious! I ate mine with maple/agave syrup and  yogurt.
