Homemade calcium supplement and recipes

How is everybody today.We have been enjoying the beautifull weather and getting some yardwork done.We also went to the park and the kids ran off some energy.It has been nice to just have a family day.I was reading in a magazine and saw a recipe that looked really good and didn't take any fancy ingredients so I went and made it for dinner and it was delicious so I will post the recipe tonight.It is called moroccan chicken stew.Yesterday we went and visited my amish grandma and also met my sister's boyfriend for the first time.She has been living in Colorado for almost a year and is finally back home.It was so nice to see her again,and her guy seems like a really great person too.We'll get to know him better tomorrow as we will spend the day together.Two of my other sisters' children have come down with a miserable case of the chicken pox so I have been praying for them and offering advice but it always feels like I am not doing enough to ease their suffering.I always feel so bad when Isee young mothers go through these hardships,but I guess our trials make us stronger.I know I have learned a lot through mine,and now I can better relate to others.Hang in there girls!I als have another recipe I'd like to share for sugarless sugar cookies with a delicious frosting that has no sugar.Then I am going to post a recipe on making your own calcium supplement that breaks down much better than most.This is out of my school book so it is a legitimate nutritional recipe.Let's get started shall we
