Mother of Gooses

  A series of pictures taken in the forest       Introduction Hello, hello. It's me, Mother of Gooses, and I have recently decided that my main topic will be hymns. So, welcome welcome!  Today's song is Jesus loves me. If you haven't heard it, I'm surprised; it is a very common song, as well as a really nice one. There is a lot of verses, more than than I thought there was. I only knew three; turns out, there's more like five. If you don't know the tune, I suggest Carrie Underwood's version. It's played on the harmonica, and sounds really nice. Enjoy! The Lyrics  Verse 1  Jesus loves me, this I know, For the Bible tells me so; Little ones to Him belong, They are weak, but He is strong. Chorus Yes Jesus loves me, Yes Jesus loves me, Yes Jesus loves me, The Bible tells me so. Verse 2 Jesus loves me, this I know As he loved so long ago; Taking children on his knee Saying, "Let them come to me". Chorus Yes Jesus loves me, Yes Jesus...

Introduction Hello, and welcome to the Mother of Gooses blog, where today, I have a recipe for you. I don't do a lot of recipes, as I don't like writing down instructions. But, sometimes I do do a recipe, and today is one of those days. Today, the recipe is Chocolate Chip Bread, which I highly enjoy, of course; I love chocolate. But, nobody wants me to ramble all day, so on with the recipe! The Recipe Preheat oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit, and grease a 9/13 inch baking dish. 1  and 3/4 cups of milk 2 eggs 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract  1 cup of sugar 1/4 cup of oil Mix these things together in a large bowl and set aside. 3 cups of flour 3 teaspoons of salt (more or less, up to you) 3 teaspoons of baking soda 1 and 1/2 cups of chocolate chips Mix all of the wet ingredients in a large bowl, then, in a smaller bowl, mix the dry ingredients together. Now add the dry into the wet, and mix until almost combined. Now fold in your chocolate chips. Put your batter into...

The woods Hiiiiiii, and welcome to another... Random Chatty Day! Do you like saxophones? I do. I like all of the instruments, and someday I would like all of them. But, for now, I'll never have a saxophone. Why?  Never you mind. Today I will share facts about the saxophone and just yak about 'em. Enjoy! The saxophone was invented in the 1840s, which surprises me. Considering how much SOME people hate them, I thought that they were invented in the 1950s, or something like that. It was invented in Rue Neuve Saint Georges Paris (I can't pronounce it either) by Adolphe Sax. Hence, saxophone. I like the saxophone depending on who's playing it. If it's some beginner that goes and honks on it like a goose with laryngitis, PROBABLY not. But if it's someone who knows what their doing, I like it. You can get a saxophone from $100 to $1,000 depending on who's selling it. Again, I implore you: don't buy from Temu.  A series of pictures taken in the woods      Well, ...

A picture of the woods Introduction  Hello, friends and enemies alike. Today I am writing down the words to one of my favorite hymns: When the roll is called up yonder. I think that it is a very nice song. I know it by heart, and maybe today's post will help you to be able to say the same. If you don't know how the tune goes, I suggest Alan Jackson's version. Let me warn you though: he doesn't sing the third verse.      The Lyrics  Verse 1 When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound,  And time should be no more,                           And the morning breaks eternal bright and fair; When the saved of earth should gather, Over on the other shore, And the roll is called up yonder,  I'll be there. Chorus When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder I'll be there.  Verse 2 On that br...

A path in the forest Introduction Hello, my friends. I am Mother of Gooses, and I love hymns, particularly fast ones. And I'm going to be trying to publish the lyrics to all the ones I like, or kind of like, or not really like. Today's hymn is Victory in Jesus; written by Eugene Monroe Bartlett, it is on my list of favorite hymns; and I hope that if you don't like it, you will learn to. It is a very pretty hymn. If you don't know how the tune goes, go to YouTube and look up Carrie Underwood's version. Let me warn you, though: she doesn't sing the whole song. Wah. The Lyrics  Verse 1 I heard an old, old story,  How a savior came from glory; How he gave his life on Calvary, To save a wretch like me. I heard about his groaning,  Of his precious blood's atoning; Then I repented of my sins, and won the victory.  Chorus Oh, victory in Jesus, My savior forever. He sought me, And bought me,  With his redeeming blood; He loved me 'ere I knew him,...

Other recipes: Ermine Frosting Chocolate Peanut Butter Frosting Chocolate Chip Bread   Hello, and welcome to the Mother of Gooses blog, where I have a recipe.  Yay! I recently started making up recipes, and one of the recipes I've made up was Cheesey Muffins; they are actually quite tasty, (though they don't taste good when stale) and they are healthy, which is important if you don't want sugar rush. I don't have much else to add, except to be careful to follow instructions, because if you don't, you will ruin the muffins. Enjoy! 1 cup of milk 1/4 cup of oil 1/4 cup of sugar 1/4 cup of sour cream 1/4 cup of water 2 eggs  2 cups of flour 3 teaspoons of salt  2 teaspoons of baking soda 1 3/4 cups of cheese (your choice of cheese) Preheat the oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit and grease a 12 hole muffin tin.  Mix the oil, milk, eggs, sugar and water together in a large bowl; then, in a smaller bowl, mix the flour, salt and baking soda together. Now add the dry ingredi...

The relative of the melodica, the piano  Hello, friends! Today is a Random Chatty Day and today we are talking about... Melodicas! Melodicas are rather strange; which is why they are called 'novelty instruments.' You see, they look like very small pianos. They have no legs, leaving them flat on whatever surface you put them on. You play the melodica the way you would play the piano, except for one thing: you have to blow into it.  When you buy a melodica, it should come with a tube; you attach this tube to the melodica, (you are smart, you'll figure out where) blow into the tube while pressing on a key, and voila! You can make noises that will annoy everyone within 100 feet.  Now I have nothing against Melodicas; I like them, and I think that they are neat. But some people don't like them, so read the room before you play it.  The melodica was invented in the 1950s; so it's really not that old, only about 70 years. Now I know that 70 years is old for humans. It'...
