Never complaining and even prefering paper bags to comfy couches. Hmmm, but maybe he isn’t relaxing at all and is…pretending to be[…]

Weird Thoughts

Alexis wrote the following on her blog, Technically Grown up . To comment and read her original post Click here. I am enjoying today. It started off pretty rough…that will go unexplained, sorry.

Pumpkin Patch

Onion Rings

I have noticed a trend in my making and baking…it all seems to be unhealthy. Unfortunately this post isn’t any better. Instead of being super sweet it’s super greasy. But it was really tasty!

Unspoken Expectations or Just Shrewdness?

I was reading in Luke 16 this morning. It was about a parable Jesus gave. I’m not going to explain it here, you should really read it for yourself. But as I finished it I was feeling encouraged but didn’t know why. As I was journaling, I realized that recently I was feeling kinda guilty[…]
