fresh summer veggies

I made this last night:

I was so excited about it - but no one was home to enjoy it with me. I sat out on the deck by myself and enjoyed.

Next time I think I will add mushrooms.

I also made a chicken breast for Andrew to add to his. It was lovely.

One of "those" days


(source)

You know what I am talking about - where you KNOW you shouldn't get out of bed. You KNOW the day isn't going to go well. Not that you are in a bad mood or anything, but you can just TELL that things are going to be off.

Well folks. Today is one of THOSE days.

It is not even lunch time and I have already had 5 or 6 mishaps. Nothing huge. But the kind of feelings where you want to crawl under a rock - or better yet your bed covers and not come out unless it is for something sweet and maybe a movie. (Luckily my bed is in my kitchen and living room, so I don't even have to travel far to get either.)

I am just glad that it is Friday and that I won't have to cause more damage for the rest of the week. Hopefully I can make it through the afternoon.

Goes to show you - reading scriptures in the morning really does make a difference. I should have made the time this morning like I usually do...but I wanted to be lazy instead. bummer.

Thought provoking

This talk was sent to me by a friend.

I love it. I want to study it b/c in my quick "run-through read during lunch" I know I missed LAYERS of eternal truths.
