Psalm 138:2 "I will give thanks to your name for your unfailing love and faithfulness, because your promises are backed by all the honor of your name."
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with our Family this year. I made a new and heavenly dessert...a pumpkin angel food cake with creamy ginger filling. I love angel food cake and I love pumpkin so this was an extra special treat for me. Below is the recipe and a picture of my new cute apron (I have an apron addiction, I must confess :-)). Happy Thanksgiving!!
