I’m ill prepared for the spiritual overflow I’m about to walk into.

I wish it was possible to capture the beauty of the tree, logo, Ralph in footie pajamas, and the leg lamp in one image.
Christmas this year. . .
was crazy, in a variety of ways. But with or without the insanity, I am undeniably blessed.
The obligatory catalogue of gifts I received this year: - 30 Rock “TGS Staff” hoodie. - “Common Prayer: A Liturgy For Ordinary Radicals” by Shane Claiborne, Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove, and Enuma Okoro - Criminal Minds season 3 on DVD - Ferrero Rocher chocolates - John Mark...

Then reality hits and I realize I will keep 0% of these goals if I set them. But something in me really wants to make that change and prove to myself that I can set a goal and actually follow through. We’ll see about this. Often I find that I like the idea of something more than the thing itself.
In other news, I’ve discovered I really like to cook. Dinner went really well and the...

c. Tonight, I am continuing my domestic adventures in the culinary world and cooking...
