The Second-Best Guacamole Ever
Just so you know, on Saturday I made the second-best guacamole I’ve ever made. It was a delightful surprise. Avocados were on sale at Food Lion, so I got four of them. The first one I cut open was just gorgeous. Not too soft, not too hard–just right. It was one of those one-in-a-million avocados Continue reading

Misspelled Food
I forgot to share the other day that Carolyn made some totally delicious chicken cordon bleu on pasta for supper. I have no idea why the word “blue” has to be misspelled whenever you’re talking about food. Maybe it’s so you can give it a weird French-sounding twist at the end, as in “bloouh,” so Continue reading

Parents All Over the Place
This past weekend was fun but went by in a blur. My parents finally made it to our house after driving five hours through heavy rain. When they finally got here, we stopped by the Training Station so they could meet the teachers there and some of the kids, then we went to Carolyn’s classroom. Continue reading

Oooohhhhh Yeahhh
Carolyn’s really been cooking some great stuff the past couple days! Last night she made some delicious Chesapeake Chicken. It totally rocked. Tonight it was chicken enchiladas, followed by a yummy strawberry dessert. The picture below was taken with my phone in bad lighting–the enchiladas were not actually green: I wonder what’s up for tomorrow Continue reading

Hey, Old People Like Cake Too!
This past weekend Carolyn and I went to Pennsylvania and stayed with Kristen & Michael. Both of them greatly enjoy the fact that I’m three years older than them, so I’m really excited that they have now entered the 30 club. Unfortunately my birthday falls close enough to theirs to enable them each year to Continue reading

Another Panera Moment
It’s always great to have an excuse for breakfast at Panera Bread. I don’t think I could ever get tired of their sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwiches! Yesterday I met a friend there for breakfast. It’s always nice when you can hang out at Panera Bread and talk religion, politics, philosophy, and art while Continue reading

So What’s Growing In Your Office?
Cool things happen to a used coffee filter when you leave it sitting in the coffee maker for about three weeks. The proof is in the pudding, or whatever this substance is: It looks kind of like a galaxy or something. I guess the Coffee Galaxy would probably go nicely with the Milky Way Galaxy. Continue reading

Bible, Baseball, Ballet, and Birch Beer
Last night I went to Greenwood, Delaware to speak to a youth group there. It’s been a little while since I’ve been involved in youth ministry, and it sure did bring back a lot of memories! The message was from Daniel 1-3, about Azariah, Mishael, and Hananiah–better known as Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. We looked Continue reading

Nice to Have a Breakfast Sandwich with No “Mc” Attached to It
This morning I decided to try out the sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich from Panera Bread. Trust me, you can’t go wrong with this one! Add a little Texas Pete and you’re all set. I’m afraid that having this new Panera Bread here in West Ocean City might take a toll on my finances. Continue reading

Easter Weekend Review
(Warning to reader: I haven’t blogged much these past few days, but I’m more than making up for it today!) Work hard. Play hard. That’s the way to live, and that’s how it’s been this past week. A review of events since last week’s Maundy Thursday service: On Friday morning I got a call from Continue reading
