and 100000000 percent DELICIOUS!!!

Did I mention beautiful too??? Look at those pink flecks on it!!!!

The good news is that this popcorn is also low in calories, about 110 calories a serving!!!! And three cups in ONE SERVING!!! Annnnnnnnd five servings in one bag-That's AWESOME!!!

That's worth kissing over-yes, I kiss food!!!

 Sooooooooo should you "ACCIDENTALLY" eat the whole bag, it's ONLY 550 calories!!! I mean, I know NONE of us would actually eat the whole bag, buuuuuuuut, you jus sayin-IN CASE, cuz ya know, accidents happen!!!! BAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!

Just stupid, NOT Stupid-stupid!!!

Soooooooo miraculously, we ACTUALLY had some really nice weather this past weekend. Of course you all know what that means for me, I'm hitting the mountains!!!

Weeeeelllll I had been putting off buying new hiking shoes, cuz weeeeellll let's be real, hiking shoes are UGLY and although needed, they're kinda like buying new tires for your car-BORING!!!!On the way up the mountain, everything was JUST FINE!!!
 .

HOWEVERRRR, on the way down was a completely different story!!! First of all, a bee decided to chase me AGAIN!!! (Remember last year HERE!!!) I don't know WHY buuuuut they always want to just nestle in my hair and I'm like NOT cool with that!!!  

.

Soooooooo I just take off running down the mountain and the bee starts chasing me. WEEEEELLLL all of the sudden my shoes lose traction and I slip and fall like I never have before. I slide down and fall on my back. One leg is pulled completely straight back behind me. Thankfully, i'm a very STRETCHY person and nothing was broken. Just a big cut on my elbow. (can you imagine the ambulance coming up the moutain-although it might be kinda fun being carried on stretcher down the mountain! LOL) 

.

Buuuuuuuuuut the fall REALLLLLLY scared me. The whole time, the rest of the way down I kept praying and asking God not to let me fall again. Buuuuuuut then as an after thought, I said, AND GOD, I also PROMISE TO THROW THESE OLD, WORN OUT, HIKING SHOES annnnnnd will NOT go hiking again til I have bought new ones. And when I got home, I took those old shoes and threw them in the trash!!!

.

You know why??? Because I can't expect to stay safe and then go directly putting myself back in danger!!! I may have been stupid to hike in them once, BUUUUUUUT I wasn't going to be STUPID-stupid!!!! 

.

Often in life, we get ourselves into stupid spiritual situations. AND even though its all our own fault, God is merciful on us and brings us out of our own mess up. BUT we can't just keep the same old shoes and expect not to slip up again. We've got throw those old messed up shoes away, pay the spiritual price and invest in something new!!! 

.

At one time or another, we can all be STUPID...

BUUUUUUUUUT...

We don't have to be STUPID-stupid!!!

 "For the Lord your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn away his face from you, if ye return unto him." (2 Chronicles 30:9)

P.S. I have NOOOOOOO IDEA WHY I'm still single!!!!😇😉

Even in my sleep...

Sooooooooo the other day I'm having this dream, that my sister and I are at Dillard's, shopping at one of their big sales. Well my sister goes to pay for her $2 item and the cashier says to my sister, "that'll be $6!" And my sister says, well it's marked $2  and the lady says, well yeeeesss, buuuuut we're adding on an automatic $3 fee for the big sale today.

.

Soooooooooo my sister is like, well that makes NO SENSE Forget it I dont want it! And the lady says, it's too late, you can't leave the store without paying the $3 fee, plus the other two for the product EVEN if you don't want it now because someone else COULD'VE already bought it by now. 

.

Soooooooooo they're arguing back and forth, the cashier is suggesting she just pay the $6 DOLLARS, the place is packed out with crazy shoppers, (Btw: I wasn't buying anything, sooooo it REALLY WAS a dream!!!;) Sooooooooooo just as security was about to be called on my sister, I wake up...

.

Annnnnnnnnnd the first thing I think is WAIT, $2 plus $3 isn't $6, IT'S FIIIIIIIIIIVVVVEEE DOLLARS!!!!Then I was liiiiiiiike OMW....

EVEN IN MY DREAMS...

Sorry, I havn't accomplished sleeping selfies-YET! Still working on that!!! ;)

I have a beautiful, lovely, sweet married friend, that i havent talked to in FOREVERRRR, buuuuuuut you know who you are IF you still read my blog, that once told me that guys used to tell her, OH, your just playing hard-to-get, and when they would say this she would think, I'm NOT playing, hard-to-get, I AM HARD TO GET!!! I was like, you know, I LIIIIIIIKE that!!! 

.

Anywayz, I just wanted to say, don't live by games. I may NOT be good at the whole "hard-to-get" thing, buuuuuuuuuuuuut...

 A+++++++++++++ on the whole...

Pentecostal kids 2020!!!

 You might me a Pentecostal Child in 2020 WHEN...

When your quoting Acts 2 and instead 

of saying cloven tongues you say...

 COVID TONGUES!!!

 True story folks!!! So the kids at LCA, our church school, are memorizing Acts 2 and O started saying COVID tongues...I waited for the school to correct it just cuz it made me laugh so hard and I wanted everyone else to laugh too!!! (I BELIEVE Pastor has corrected him though! HAHA!!!) 

Thankfully, COVID tongues are NOT

 the evidence of the Holy Ghost!!! 

"And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance." (Acts 2:1-4)

Mary Reccomends!!!

Just Flirting ( Devotional Repost-2015)

Flirting!!! I was thinking about that...as a SINGLE person, there is JUST SOMETHING about FLIRTING!!! LOL!!! I mean lets all be honest...its FUN in the right context of course! Ya know what I mean, that harmless, fun teasing between a guy and girl...ahhhh...FUN TIMES!!! HAHA!!! I mean think about it you know when you just feel that SPARK...that chemistry??? Your just like OH WOW!!!

.

This one time, i had this HUGE crush on like a very, very, VERY HANDSOME Apostolic young man buuuuuuut as we became friends, thats ALL it was...good conversation buuuuuut I NEVER felt sparks...its like no matter how attractive of a person that he was, there was just NO CHEMISTRY!!! sooooo i just kind of lost interest in him and the next thing I knew I fell for this OTHER guy and honestly, he really wasn't as good looking as the other guy, buuuuut there was something about our personalities together annnnnd man there were sparks!!! AHAHAHAHA!!! Even tho it would be hard TO ACTUALLY start a convo with him...once we did...MAN...chemistry was STRONG!!! Some of my close girls were like, BUT MARY, the other guy is better lookin and you could talk to him easily, annnnnnd this guy isn't as good lookin and its HARDER for you to talk to him...

.

I'm like I know buuuuuuuuut SPARKS girls...SPARKS!!! I mean really, MY NAME IS MARY GINTY and i'm the daughter of Frances Ginty, talking comes NATURALLY for me!!! I could talk to pretty much ANYONE, I could probabley even get a mute person to talk to me...BAHAHAHA!!! So i'm mean...just BEING able to talk to someone...is NOT a big deal for me...like HELLO...BORING!!! HOWEVER, not every person that I talk to, do I feel sparks...ANNNND I LIKE SPARKS!!! Yup! Yup! There is just NOTHING like some GOOD O FLIRTING!!! Can I can and AMEN from anyone out there??? ;)

.

Buuuuuuut at the same time, none of us want to be KNOWN as a FLIRT!!! None of us want to be known as the kind of person that flirts with everyone, without really having ANY sort of a true interest in them...being that way...it just gives you a BAD REPUTATION!!!

.

I remember seeing a friend, a really good, Godly young lady, one time talking to a guy and after a few weeks I asked her, SOOOOO are you INTERESTED??? And she was like, actually, NO, I don't think I am! And I was like, REALLY, WHY NOT??? I mean, i was really curious, because although I didn't know the guy all that well, he was definatley on the very handsome, attractive side and I knew quite a few girls that would just LOVE to have this guys attention. So my friend, just looked at me and was like, well I don't mean to talk bad about him, buuuuuut to be perfectly honest, he is just TO MUCH OF A FLIRT!!! (Aka: A PLAYER!!!)

.

Nobody wants a FLIRT!!! And while flirting outside of marriage is okay, WHILE YOUR SINGLE, within marriage, aside from flirting with each other, FLIRTING with other people is NOT ok! I mean, being VERY SINGLE and all myself, I do NOT know all that much about marriage, buuuuuut I do know, that I would NOT be okay with my husband flirting with other woman! How would you feel if you were married and your spouse was flirting with other people, and when you brought it up, WHAT IF they didn't think it was a big deal??? WHAT IF their response was...I'm NOT CHEATING on you...

I'm JUST FLIRTING!!!

.

Oh man!!! I would sooooooo NOT be ok with that!!! Talk about INFURITATING!!! I mean come on...We're married!!! ACT MARRIED!!! We can all CLEARLY see this concept and YET, I see SOOOOOOO much, people IN THE CHURCH... that are SUPPOSED to be in a sold out relationship with Jesus Christ, JUST FLIRTING WITH THE WORLD!!!

.

May I ask you a question???

What does PLETHORA mean???

 PLETHORA MEANS...

 

.
 

 Oooooooh, sooooooo that's what plethora means...AHA!!!

  .

 

 AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! If no one else is laughing, it's ok, CUZ I AM!!!! BAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!! Literally crack myself up! Your soooooo funny Mary!!! LOLOLOL #WordNerd

♥Mary Frances :)

Happy Monday!!!

Whateverrrrr it takes, STAY SAFE!!!! BAHAHAHAAA!!!

Another Superpower!!!

Some time ago, at a family get together, one of my nephews thought he could freak me out while trying to escape from his beloved Aunt Mary's hugs on the couch! As a final resort of torture to get me away, he stuck his feet in my face and said I'd have to smell his smelly feet if I tried to hug him!!! I just shrugged and said, I don't care!!! I'm NOT scared of smelly feet threats, i said, I'm NOT scared because of my superpower!!! You wanna know what my superpower is???

I RIDE THE CHURCH VAN!!!

Annnnnnnnd that 

is MY SUPERPOWER

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!

(Cuz if you can endure church van pick-ups-SMELLY FEET ARE NOTHING!!!)

Bookie Day #2 (Wonderland Creek)

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah...Alice Grace Ripley is your typical librarian. She loves books and doesn't really live much outside of them until her boyfriend dumps her and she gets laid off due to budget cuts during the depression. “If my life were a book, no one would read it. People would say it was too boring, too predictable. A story told a million times. But I was perfectly content with my life – that is, until the pages of my story were ripped out before I had a chance to live happily ever after.” 

                                                   

I'm not sure why I decided to do my first book review on here about a book that I didn't like, buuuuuuuuuuuuut, moving on....WONDERLAND CREEK!!!!  This is my absolute favorite book of fiction everrrrr!!! It's funny, adventurous, historical, it has several mysteries, it talks about prejudice, forgivness and even a little side of love!  I think I can relate to Alice in the sense that I know what it's like to really start living after the pages of your happily ever after gets ripped out and God starts writing your story. (mY STORY here)

.

On an unusual whim, Alice decides to get out and goes with her Aunt and Uncle to deliver books to the poor people in the mountains of Kentucky, she never imagines that this one decision will take her on a fantastical, life-changing adventure. 

.

As this sheltered city girl looks at the bloodied man, dying from a gunshot wound, in the middle of nowhere, this is the moment she starts really living..."If there's no doctor in town, what do people do when they're hurt or sick?" I asked. "You know how to pray girl?" "My father is a minister..." "Well, unless he's hiding out in the next room, he ain't gonna be any help to us is he? We best get praying!" 

.

"She hates me!" Alice says of Bell, the horse Lily has forced her to learn how to ride. "Horses don't know how to hate Honey, only people are that stupid!" Says Lily. 

.

The hero in this book is a 100-year-old black lady named Lily that has lived through slavery and hatred and overcome bitterness. She is the town's natural healer, mid-wife and known by all for her wisdom. Her only desire before going home to heaven, is knowing that her son, who her owner had sold and she has never found, knows Jesus. And while holding on to this one last dream, she pushes Alice into becoming the woman God wants her to be.

.

“Ain't I been trying to tell you that you can't be holding grudges against people? Didn't you hear me say that? What do you think Jesus is gonna say if we come walking up to those pearly gates carrying a whole sackful of grievances and grudges on our backs? Jesus is gonna ask, What's that you toting on your back? Do you want to be opening that sack and showing Him all those ugly thing? He's dressed all in white and shining like the sun, and you're coming in with a load a hate in your your arms? Umm hmm. I can't imagine doing that.” 

― Lynn Austin, Wonderland Creek

.

This book covers some pretty hard, rough places. While entertaining you with humor and mystery, amidst a family feud, a fake death, attempted murder, hidden treasure, lonely hearts, families searching for work, justice for the underpaid and overworked miners, baby blues, you are intrigued to search your own heart and pushed to dig deeper, go further and to just be a friend. This fantastical book of adventure ends with Alice back at home simply saying...

"I think Miss Lily is the wisest woman I've ever met." 

THE END

I highly recommend this adventure story!!!! 

You can order it paperback or my favorite Audible HERE!!! 

If you have any great book titles or authors that you recommend please let me know!!!

Odin's Prayer Request!!!

Sooooooooooo recently, i had a bit of acne break out on my face! Odin wakes up in the morning and first thing he says to me, Auntie, Did  you get ANOTHER owie on your face????

Then on the way out the door for church, O stops me, touches my arm with great concern, almost even a burden on his heart, and says,

Did you forget something???

 Soooooooooo a few months ago, I'm driving home from church when my sister calls me! I rarely answer the phone due to ALWAYS keeping it on silent, buuuuuuut, I happened to catch this call!!!!

My sister is like, did you forget something at church?! I'm liiiiiiiike, UH, NO! She's like, Did you forget SOMEONE at church! I'm like, Noooooooo!!! She's like, ARE YOU SURE??? I'm sitting there in my car thinking, okaaaaaaayyy, I love your kids almost like my own, buuuuuuuuut they're NOT my kids. At the end of the day, they're not my responsibility!!!

.

Buuuuuuuuuut NOT wanting to give my sister total attitude about it and start a fight, I was like, Oh had wanted me to take MaryJo and Odin home today? She's like, UH HOW ABOUT YOUR KID YOU BROUGHT TO CHURCH WITH YOU???

.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! I gasped!!! I forgot I had picked up a Sunday School kid!!!! I was liiiiiiike, OMW....

After yesterday's post about my very awkward moment, I was inspired to ask you all this question (If you haven't read  yesterdays post, you probably should!) 

QUESTION!!!

As a woman, that is proud to be a woman: WHAT IS WORSE??? 

To be mistaken for a man or to be mistaken for a pregnant woman????

For me personally, I think to be mistaken for a man is worse cuz it's like, THE ULTIMATE diss everrrr to me!!!! Liiiiiiiike literally!!!! Buuuuuuuuut I'm pretty sure I'll NEVERRRR be mistaken for a man!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!

Awkwardly helpful!!

Soooooooooo I've always LOVED Trader Joe's, buuuuuuuut thanks to Hanna and the cookbook her and Brandon got me for my birthday, I've been getting EVEN MORE into it!!! Weeeeeeeeeeellllll the other day I was at Trader Joe's stocking up on my favorite sweet and spicy jarred jalapenos, when I noticed I very tall broad-shouldered man that was trying to be a woman. I'm thinking in my head liiiiiiike really bro, it's NOT happening!!! 

.

Buuuuuut whateverrrr, ain't none of my business, the aisle was soooooo crowded and I just needed to get my stuff and be on my way to prayer meeting at church. As I'm getting my stuff, I heard something behind me fall to the ground. I looked and it was this man-trying to be a lady, and a thing of oatmeal had fallen out of their basket. I waited to see if they would realize it had fallen, buuuuuut after about 20 seconds of this person NOT realizing, I figured I would just BE HELPFUL!!! 

(BIGGGGGEST MISTAKE EVERRRRR;))))

.

I'm liiiiiiiiiiike, excuse me sir...No one turned around...I tried again, Excuse me sir! No one turned, i'm like right behind them...I'm like, maybe this man isn't turning cuz he identifies as a woman???? Does he expect me to say Ma'am???? This is soooooo weird....maybe i should just forget about the oatmeal on the floor...he doesn't really need it...

.

All of the sudden, HE TURNS AROUND, GLARES AT ME AND SAYS...

EXCUSE ME???? ARE YOU TALKING TO ME??? ANNNNNND OMW...He was NOT trying to be a SHE, he SHE, REALLY WAS, A SHE!!! 

Ooooooooooops...guess I shoulda just gone with the whole, being politically correct thing and everything woulda been ok!!! It just got DEAD SILENT ON THE AISLE!!! Idk how many people were laughing behind their masks buuuuuuut I was SCARED out of my wits!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! 

.

I was liiiiiiike, Ummmmmmmmmm... I mean, this lady was MAAAAAAD at me...I genuinely felt really bad....buuuuuuuuuut would it really help the situation if I apoligized to her for thinking she was a man, TRYING to be a lady???? (I didn't think so!) Soooooo i'm just like, ummmmm...UMMMM...UH, you dropped something... She snatched up that oatmeal and stomped out of the aisle!!! 

.

                               . .

I was liiiiiiikkkkke MAAAAAAAAANNNN...it's NOT like I said it to be mean!!! We all have that akward mistaken identity moment right??? I mean someone mistook me for pregnant once, (At Trader joe's) you didn't see me getting all hot like that!!! (I mean, he was like 4, and I was wearing a maternity looking top, buuuuuuut....bahahahahaaaa)

.

I'm like, weeeeeeeeeeeellllll THAT WAS AWKWARD!!!! Next time I'm unsure of someone's gender, THAT OATMEAL IS STAYING ON THE FLOOR!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!

♥Mary Frances :)

Sooooo many compliments...

OR NOT???

.

Soooooooo a few weeks ago I wore a new outfit to church that I just literally adored!!! On the drive home my sister randomly asked me if I got any compliments on my outfit? I was like, Oh YES, 

I got SOOOOOOOO MANY

 COMPLIMENTS ON IT!!! 

My sister was like, Oh really, like who? So I'm like, weeeeeeeeelllll Sister Anna and Janelle annnnnnd...and I just kinda pause and my sister is like waiting for me to say WHO ELSE on my loooooooong list of complimenters annnnnnd I'm just thinking, trying to remember WHO ELSE had complimented me on my outfit, finally I'm like, well I guess that's it!!!!

.

My sister was liiiiiiiiiiike, I thought you said you had gotten so many compliments??? I'm liiiiiike, weeeeeeeellll, when I thought about it, I just realized that ALL the other compliments were from ME...

EVERY TIME I WALKED BY A MIRROR!!!! 

HEEEEEEEEYYYY!!!!👊

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!! My sister was just like, WOOOOOOOOOWWW!!!! 

.

Now before anyone feels the need to lecture me on NOT standing in front of the mirror and admiring myself, let me clarify something!!! I wasn't ACTUALLY continually standing in front of the mirror, it was just that EVERY TIME I happened to walk by a mirror, I would catch a glimpse of my outfit and give myself a compliment on it!!! 

.

Also, I am a complimenter!!! If I like something someone is wearing, I TELL THEM!!! I loooooove your outfit girrrrrl!!! Rocking those shoes sista!!! Niiiiiiice tie bro!!! OMW!!! Your baby looks adorable!!! Ooooooh look whose losing weight, GOOD JOB!!! Wow bro, congratdulations on actually buying something new, I'm soooooo happy for you!!! Heeeeeey looking good sis!

Odin's 4th of July Greeting!!!

Soooooooooo we had a quarantined 4th of July celebration this year(Insert eye roll) buuuuuut we met at my brother's house for fireworks in the street, which everyone, including a lot of neighbors on the street, and as the fireworks went off, this was O's greeting to EVERYONE...

It was quite HILARIOUS!!! Uh, wrong Holiday O!!!!

SMARTER THAN CFA!!!

In the world of food, IS IT POSSIBLE to be SMARTER THAN CHICK-FIL-A????

.

One would think NOT, buuuuuuuuuuuut I, Mary Frances Ginty, have outsmarted them!!! Recently, CFA came out with a new summer drink, the mango-passion-fruit, lemonade, ice tea!!!! This drink is absolutely phenomenal!!!! It is refreshing and delightful to one's taste buds! (ESPECIALLY after waiting 5 hours in their drive through line!!! 😝)

.

HOWEVERRRRR, Imagine my absolute horror over ordering a LARGE and they hand me a small cup, AFTER THE 5 HOUR WAIT, and i'm like, ummmm, sir, I actually ordered a large! OH, we forgot to tell you, we only serve our specialty drinks in a small! I'm liiiiiiiike, Oh...okaaaaaaaaay... I mean, it's only a 120 out so lets crank out smaller drinks and charge MORE for them too!!! GOOD IDEA CFA!!! 

Sooooooooooo my good friend, Jen Lord, who is actually the one that told me about this drink, told me that the CFA in Dallas does sell a "large" in this drink, buuuuuuuut it's only slightly larger than their small because it's the specialty large cup. Soooooooooo i'm like hmmmmmm....how can I work this out???? 

Is it possible to be smarter than CFA???
