I've been reading about your diet, and though I don't think I would try it, I too want to lose weight (congratulations on losing those 8 pounds, btw!!!!). I like lentils and look forward to that recipe. Oh, and the almond butter, too! <br /><br />I bought radish seeds a while ago with the mentality of soaking them, but they're still in a bag in my food storage. A little at a time, I guess!<br /><br />How fun to pick out your birthday present!!<br /><br />Love to you this evening!!<br /><br />Christineheritagemomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17704236577862086830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3148788601596226747.post-82224141090561098582011-07-26T16:46:57.538-07:002011-07-26T16:46:57.538-07:00Hi Mary!

Thanks for the inspiration! :)<br /><br />So which do you think you'd use more? Food processor or yarn swift?

I wish I had those kinds of skills, but nope, ha, ha! :)<br /><br />It sounds like you are really thinking about that birthday gift. I think the yarn swift (whatever that is) would be good for you, since you really seem to like knitting. I'd go for the food processor, as I am getting tired of using my blender (like-minds seem to think alike :), but I am "making-do" for now. <br /><br />I'm looking forward to hearing about your recipes as well. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3148788601596226747.post-33350525780248396032011-07-13T13:40:02.317-07:002011-07-13T13:40:02.317-07:00Glad your cross stitch is going well.

So here comes year number 23 and the sixth time to do K! He will go to a coop two days a week, which allows him to have friends. It will be so quiet without the older one here each day, but it will give me some time without kids (not had that in 27 years) and then concentrate on K the other three days a week. I am getting excited about it...and had confirmation from a public school teacher next door. What she told me made me go, "okay I am going to home school him"<br />God is faithful...this year will be different. I am not completely sure why God is calling the teen into school, but I can say the confirmations have been overwhelming, so I am excited to see what God does.
