Friday Fav Five

The top of my list this week has been checking the Costa Rica Mission Trip Blog each day for updates. I was very happy to get a glimpse of the girl child hanging gout with these kiddos’ enjoying herself behind those cool shades.

Secondly, I brought this home from the grocery store this week. The dilemma is always taste verses healthy, well this has no artificial flavorings or colorings and it is relatively low fat. It is a really nice addition to my afternoon ice coffee.

Third, well let’s just say that this was a big mistake. Really good, really really good….but in my humble they are very expensive. $5.50ish for 6 ice cream bars…really good ice cram bars but still expensive! Don’t be fooled by the picture on the front of the box they are very small.

Fourth, I have a giant basket of cucumbers sitting on my kitchen counter right now. The corn is probably a few days away from begin ready to pick and my tomatoes are actually producing tomatoes this year so this makes me very happy.

Lastly, fellowship. I have had so many times this week where I got to enjoy the company of my friends in fellowship, talking, sharing a meal, teaching a wonderful young woman how to make sushi (that was way fun!!!!) and just generally spending times with people I love!

I’d call that a good week!

Sounds like a wonderful week. That's great to get a glimpse of your daughter so many miles away. Those skinny cows are good but expensive for sure. Sounds like you have quite a bounty from your garden.Have a wonderful weekend.

So nice to get a peek into your girl's adventures. Mine is gone for three weeks and I'm hoping she'll post some pics too.

Homegrown veggies are the best!

Your garden produce sounds so yummy and fresh! Especially the tomatoes...
I suppose you could look at the skinny cows as a small bite of luxury :)

No time to garden this summer -- not with the traveling we're doing! -- but we're enjoying sweet corn bought at the store. We eat it a couple times a week :) Gotta get my fill since we can't get it in Argentina. Also loving the other fruits and vegies!

Sunday, March 13   Monday, March 14 This is coming up in the herb garden. My sweet furry family member decided it was his greatest joy to pull almost all my plant labels out of the ground and use them for chew toys.  I think this is marjoram but I am not sure. Tuesday, March 15 Click on the link Southern Eggs En Cocotte for the recipe. It was real good y’all!   No pictures on Wednesday, March 16 Thursday, March 17 Can you tell who was at my house all day?   I guess she figured since her toys were scattered all over the floor that she would join them. She laid down sprawl-eagle and did the back stroke for several minutes then switched to rolling from tummy to back all the way into the living room!   Friday, March 18 Today was cake decorating day. Click here to see the start to finish. Saturday, March 19 Today was Muffinhead’s birthday party at a local park! The sun was shinning and the weather was beautiful and a good time was had by all...

Announcing the “I won…You Win Giveaway!!!”

Several weeks ago I was the lucky winner of a book giveaway from Mocha with Linda . Click here to read her post about this book! As I finished the book up the other day I began to think about the two women the story centers around. The story begins with two pen pals in elementary school and they continue with there friendship for many, many years through letters and emails, but they have never actually met, not until things change for the main character. Her life takes an unexpected turn and she finds herself face to face with her long time pen pal. I began to think of the similarities between the two women in the book and all of you, my fellow bloggers. As members of this unique internet community we enter into each other lives as we read each others posts, as we comment, share encouraging words or just a well needed giggle now and then. But what I enjoyed as I read this book was the depiction of the friendship these two women shared. They had been intimately involved...
