Picture Tomorrow, Remember Today

I finally started reading the manual to my camera.  I didn’t finish reading it, but I started.  I was sitting in my bedroom at the time, and happily snapping shots at whatever I could see (which wasn’t much) to practice using the different settings.  One of my many unfinished projects right now is a skinny scarf made from this bright pink feathery yarn.  I just love the silky feeling it has, and I think it will turn out really cute, someday.  In the meantime, it sits collecting dust on my nightstand.  Maybe I’ll post another picture when I actually complete it!

A thank you note from a stranger caught me completely off guard today.  I’ve never had an experience quite like that one.  It was the nicest thing that has happened to me in some time.  Many thanks, complete stranger and new friend, many thanks.

The book never seems to get put away

A common sight… a Hymn book on the piano.  The simplified version means it was someone besides me doing the playing.  Today, Ryan was working on his new Hymn assignment, “I Need Thee Every Hour.”  It brings a nice feeling to have live piano music in the home.  Some unfortunate homes never get this blessing!

Yes, this one is food.  I’ve been doing a lot of experimenting with breakfast food, after my dear friend and ebook publisher asked me to write a cookbook.  Today, I made Chocolate Waffles for dinner.  Which were pretty yummy, but apparently don’t stay with you long.  Within 3 hours of eating, the boys were “starving” again.  It is really fun to try new things though!

This is actually a pretty common sight at our house… a carton of eggshells.  Robb has been eating eggs like they are going out of style.  I’ve had to start buying them in 18-packs instead of 12-packs, and I usually have 2 of those at a time.  Between the baking and the breakfast and the snacks, eggs are probably the most commonly eaten food item in our house!
