How to Recognize Signs from the Other Side

https://omtimes.com/2019/03/recognize-signs-from-the-other-side/

Have your loved ones been sending you signs from the other side and you hadn’t realized it? Recognizing Signs from the Other Side by Bill Philipps      How beautiful it would be to be able to say to your deceased mother, “Mom, I really need to know you’re with me right now; will you please appear before me so that I can see you?” — and then watch as she appears. Unfortunately, that’s not how spirits operate. Any signs you receive from the other side likely will not be presented in the most obvious ways. But they won’t necessarily be as subtle as you may think. It depends primarily on your mindset and whether you are looking for them. If you surrender your expectations of how the signs may be presented and are vigilant about paying attention to your surroundings, you will recognize them. When you are on the lookout, your psychic senses will kick in, because that is where your energy is being directed. Spirits will also try to send their signs from the other side that you will relate to and avoid sending ones that you won’t. The reason, of course, is because they want you to recognize them. For example, if you are a construction worker or a sports fanatic, they may send signs that relate to either of those things. If you are not into sports and aren’t familiar with, say, basketball star LeBron James, your deceased mom will likely not send you something that has to do with LeBron. I am not into sports much at all, so when I give readings, it is rare for me to receive a detailed sports symbol as validation. Those on the other side know I’d get frustrated if I did. That doesn’t mean they won’t show me…

What a beautiful SNOWY weekend we had up here in Northern Virginia!  I don’t know about you, but a lazy snowy Sunday always puts me in the mood to bake and since my bananas we perfectly ripened I thought it’d be the perfect time to make this banana bread.

This has been one of my favorite recipes since I can remember and I have to give my Grandma ALL the credit.  She literally makes the best banana bread (among her many talents) and it was always a staple in her home when I was growing up.  This recipe is literally SO easy to make and the bread comes out incredibly moist which is why I love it so much!  Now for the disclaimer.  This of course isn’t the healthiest recipe, but hey all things should be eaten in moderation anyway, right??  I’ve tried modifying this recipe several times to make it a bit healthier, but it just never comes out the same so I wanted you all to have the original recipe 🙂

Plus isn’t good to just have a staple bread recipe in your arsenal that you can whip out when you want to impress friends and family??  Trust me this is definitely it.  Now there are plenty of healthier options on my blog, like this zucchini bread or even this pumpkin bread, so if you’re sitting there frustrated that this recipe contains butter and sugar, you are MORE than welcome to move on to my other recipes.  This classic favorite is just too good not to share with you all!

The great thing is this batter makes one large loaf or three mini loaves, depending on what you prefer.  I ended up doubling this recipe so we’d have one loaf for our home and made three mini ones to give to our neighbors since all of us seem to be stuck inside on this snow day.  It’s the perfect little indulgence that is much-appreciated on cozy weekends and feel free to make this recipe all your own by adding chopped walnuts, pecans or even chocolate chips!

Let me know below if you end up making this banana bread recipe and please tell me what you think!  I’ve had this recipe on the blog for over 7 years (wow has it really been almost 8 years already?!), but I wanted to update it with better, more drool-worthy photos 😉  Enjoy everyone!
