Dumb Sign
Dumb signs make me laugh. Check out this one I saw in the grocery store a couple days ago: Don’t get me wrong, I like Food Lion and shop there regularly. But since when is $5.29 a “Great Price” for a 12-pack of soda?!? Shouldn’t they be trying to hide the fact that their Coke Continue reading

Why We Won’t Do Fundraisers at Church
After church at CrossWay on Sunday two excellent things happened: First, we had a wonderful Mexican meal, taco-bar-style. It totally rocked. Second, we had a productive leadership meeting.

Stuff from the Past Few Days
Haven’t blogged much lately. Here’s what’s been going on: Carolyn was away last week for three days and two nights. She attended a conference in Towson with the other kindergarten teachers, and really enjoyed it.

Jenna the Media Woman from SonRise Church seriously hooked up Carolyn and me for Christmas. She gave us a massive basket of sweet stuff: cookies, caramel popcorn, all kinds of fudge, brownies, chocolate-dipped pretzels (one of my favorites!), and tons of other stuff. The fudge is just unbelievable. There’s no way to describe how totally Continue reading

Outback Elders
Last night we had an elders meeting at Outback. Now that’s what I’m talking about! That’s how elders meetings should be. Forget this sitting around a table at church stuff, talking about the leaky toilet and the need for a new mulch job. Bring on the grilled chicken with swiss and bacon sandwich! In all Continue reading

Jesus & Lima Beans
I wonder if Jesus had a favorite food. What if there was a food He didn’t like? That’d be weird, since He invented it. But I wonder if Mary had to make Him eat His lima beans in order to get ice cream after supper. He might have sat there thinking, “I just knew creating Continue reading
