How to find a church home
It took me
2 years
It made me

How I did it: I started going to my parent's church shortly after my daughter was born, but on and off because of her sleep problems AND because sometimes I was just lazy.  Since she started enjoying going to her little toddler sunday school classroom I have been going regularly.  I love the children's program there and I also love all the opportunities to be involved with so many different ministries, but the church is HUGE and i'm still try… Read how I did it…

How to don't get another dog
It took me

It made me
sneeze-a-rific!

How I did it: i caved and GOT a dog even though I shouldn't have and then God said, "uh, aren't you supposed to NOT get a dog?  here, i'll make you allergic to the first dog you've ever been allergic to."  so then i sneezed and wheezed and scratched at my watery eyes and made a phone call and found her a new home.  and now I know, with certainty, it is NOT the right time for my family to have a dog.boo.

I love corn beef and cabbage. I just do. Here’s how we make it.
Boil the corn beef for abot 2 hours. We don’t get a huge one, as there’s only 2 1/2 who eat it. Cut it into thin slices, add it to a large pan with cut cabbage, add enough water to ALMOST cover the cabbage. Cook, covered, until cabbage is tender. Drain any water that didn’t cook out. Add about 2 tbsp. butter, salt liberally, eat. Delicious.

Have I mentioned that I got an electric griddle? I love it.
