Easy As Pie

Have you ever NOT tried something, for fear that it was too hard?
Ever put off doing something because you
imagined that you would fail
if you tried?

I think we all have things we avoid, just because
we lack confidence in our own abilities.

Then one day
you feel an extra burst of courage
and
you try it!

And you realize.......
that it wasn't so hard 
afterall.

Such was my journey with......

Chicken Pot Pie.

For some reason,
this homemade concoction
eluded me for many years.

I had no idea what all went into the yummy goodness,
but
I imagined that something that tasted so amazing
had to be
time consuming 
and 
difficult.

Then one day
I found the courage
and I went to the kitchen,
put on my big-girl apron,
gathered the ingredients,
and got to work.
And 
what-do-ya know.......
embarrassingly 
simple.



If you're thinking of trying
something new
this next year,
but you
lack the courage......
try it anyway.

You never know!
It might be
easy as pie!

Happy New Year!

  1. That looks delicious. I found a recipe a couple of years ago that we enjoy, only I haven't gotten brave and made my own pie crust. Glad it worked out for you. It's always nice to add new recipes to feed our family.
    God bless!

  2. Thanks for visiting Everyday Ruralty. You were writing this post to me. There have been so m any things that I haven't done over the years due to lack of confidence. Just as you found, I often discover it was no big thing. Please stop by again and join in the Farmhouse Chat one week. We have a great group of ladies who visit weekly.
    Happy New Year!
