Life has a way of catching up with you. I can go weeks without anything happening, and then I have a month like this past month and it seems I've lived a whole year in 3 weeks.
Travelling, work commitments, family worries and health issues have filled my days with joy and pain. Slowing down is not always an option. In times like these you need meals that are not time consuming, but still give you the much needed nutrition to fuel your body for long hard days.
I only got home last night at 7pm, after another emotional day. I'd started at 5.15am, doing my daily workout - a much needed drug - and ended it by making a scrumptious supper, which only took 10 minutes to prepare.
In times like these I am so grateful for the love and support I get from Keith as well as my family and friends, without them I wouldn't have the strength to see my way past my morning shower! I owe so much to these people, I pray that when they need me, I'll be the rock they can stand on.
These Pita Pockets of Pleasure are filled with goodness to fill your tummy and fuel your body for peak performance.

Jeremiah 17: 7-8
"Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him. He will be like a tree planted by the water."
It is not your business to succeed, but to do what is right : when you have done so, the rest lies with God.
C.S. Lewis

I think we could all use a quick meal every now and then and just look how tasty yours look!
Hope all the worries are over now and you can relax a bit.
