Did You Say Artistic?

I freely admit that I barely knew who Miley Cyrus was. I will even admit to going to see her father in concert a bazillion years ago when Achy Breaky Heart first came out...gasp! I have seen pictures of her at events and such and I had NO idea she was only 15 years old. The 15 year old girls that I know don't dress like that. She has been dressed by her handlers (or parents, I assume) to look as though she is in her 20s at least, and even then on the sleazy side. So, when I heard about the latest hoopla regarding her I wasn't that shocked.

It seems that Miley had her picture taken by Annie Leibovitz (see above), who is a world renowned photographer whose photos are known for their strong sexual overtones. Now Annie Leibovitz has taken some amazing photographs of many people, but they aren't usually images that you would expect a 15 year old to want to be a part of.

Apparently, not only was the whole "Miley Cyrus" camp all for the shoot, but her parents were even present when the photos were being taken. Yes, because when I am topless and covered in just a sheet I would love my dad to be there cheering me on! YUCK! You can see from the picture what was taking place at the shoot and they have been quoted as saying, "everyone thought it was a beautiful and natural portrait of Miley." Um, let's see...she appears to be naked, with hair tousled, which usually implies something other than sleeping! She is 15!

Miley released this statement, "I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be 'artistic' and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed. I never intended for any of this to happen and I apologize to my fans who I care so deeply about." In my opinion, her parents should be doing the apologizing. What were they thinking? They appear to be perfectly content to whore out their teenage daughter. Because that is just what society needs...another Britney or Lindsay.

Stepping down from my soapbox now. :)

The Watchmaker

I love this little video called The Watchmaker. It is very short and very thought provoking :)

Work, is well...work

We had two more associates give notice today to join the other attorneys that left. There is at least one more shareholder that looks like he will be leaving and two more associates that will decide this weekend if they are staying or going.

There is no word on more of the staff being laid-off. They are waiting for the dust to settle before making any decisions. I think we are going to scale way back and go to bare bones for the time being. I am just praying that I get to stay. I really like it there and the attorneys I work for. God's will be done. :)

Pressie

One of the court reporter services that we use in the office sent all the secretaries gifts for Office Appreciation Day.

This was mine. I LOVE brooches!!!!

Ahhhh, The Feel of Stress

I came into the office today to the news that two of our attorneys had left to start their own firm. One of them was a shareholder and one of our rainmakers. This on top of all the lay-offs of the last two weeks threw everyone into a tizzy. I don't blame them, people are scared. This is a really bad time to be out of work. So many people are a pay check away from losing their homes. I know it can be very frightening position to be in.

The shareholders have a meeting scheduled for tomorrow morning, so we will see what gets decided on.

I am not worrying so far and I am really trying to keep my focus on the Holy Days. I know God will take care of me, and even though I may not see the benefit of something that happen, I know that God does. :)

Beauty Blog

I love makeup and hair products!! I am somewhat of a freak in that area, although after deciding to be a better steward of what God has blessed me with, my episodes of spending many dollars on said freakishness has been minimized to birthday gifts, tax returns and work bonuses.

That said, I do like to buy lovely products, but I hate buying things that turn out to be duds. For that reason, I really like reading Makeup and Beauty Blog. The author Karen gives some really good tips and critiques of new items. She does have a bit of the potty mouth, so fyi :)

Matzo Shortage

Good thing I can make my own Matzos now, thanks to Tammie, because apparently there is a Matzo shortage in the Bay Area see here (courtesy of my dad). Eeeek!

Next ULB Project

I found this recipe on Tammy's Recipes. She has MANY MANY great recipes!! She also observes the Days of Unleavened Bread as well and has some amazing recipes. I really like matzos that I buy from the store, but I want to try to make at least one new recipe for ULB each year. And since, I have never made unleavened bread before and this looks so yummy I have decided to try it this year.

Egg and Onion Matzos

A soft, homemade unleavened bread squares with egg and onion flavors
Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup butter
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon onion powder
1/2 cup milk

Instructions:
1. Combine onion powder and milk in a small bowl, and allow to soak for a few minutes.

2. In a mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in butter. Add egg and onion powder/milk mixture. Knead into a smooth, soft dough, adding additional flour if needed.

3. Divide dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece of dough into a large rectangle, at least 1/4-inch thick but not more than 1/2-inch thick.

4. Using a pizza cutter or butter knife, cut dough into 2x2-inch squares, or another size as desired. Place squares on a lightly greased, lightly salted cookie sheet or jelly roll pan. Use a fork to prick each square several times before baking.

5. Bake at 450 degrees for 10-14 minutes, until golden and cooked through (but not hard or dark). Remove to wire rack; cool.

Altoids

Let me start by saying that I love Altoids. I loved them even more after discovering chocolate covered Altoids. So, there I was sitting in services minding my own business when I flipped over my shiny tin of Altoids and glanced at the ingredients, and glimpse the word G-E-L-A-T-I-N! Say what? My beloved Altoids have gelatin in them? The gelatin that is made with pork products? Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

My dad found this on their website today.

The different varieties of our ALTOIDS mints do contain very small quantities of gelatin which is derived from pork. Gelatin does not impart any flavor to ALTOIDS, but it's a necessary ingredient for the texture of the mint. When we use gelatin it is thoroughly purified and dried during its manufacturing process. Our staff is continually looking at alternatives to animal gelatin, but at the moment we've not been able to find a substitute that produces the same quality you've come to love with ALTOIDS.

I do love you wonderful Altoids, but I do not love your unclean food ingredients and so I bid you au revoir, and say rebonjour to Tic Tacs. (see my french classes are working).

It's Time

Passover is such a powerful time, and it is also sobering. It is easy to be bogged down by my many faults and weaknesses as I examine myself, but more importantly it is about the renewing of my covenant made with Christ and God Almighty at baptism. I also must not forgot Christ’s terrible shame and suffering for my sins and the sins of all of mankind. I cry every year at Passover. I can’t help it. When I think of what Christ had to endure and that He did it freely and obediently, it just moves me. I am also struck by the amazing love Christ showed when He washed Judas’ feet. He didn’t do that for Judas’, He did it for us. So that we could see that we are to love our brother no matter what they have done or will do to us. Christ was the true example of love. I am abundantly blessed and I praise and thank God for this amazing calling.

I hope everyone has a blessed and fulfilling Passover.

Philippians 2:5-8
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

Hebrews 12:1-2
Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

I Peter 2:21-24
For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously: Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

I don’t know who all reads this blog, so if anyone has any questions, please feel free to ask me.

Parmesan Croissants - Unleaveneed

These are an Unleavened Bread must make every year! I first tasted these when Mrs. Orchard made them years ago, and I had JoAnn send me the recipe.

Parmesan Croissants

2 cups flour
3/4 cups (6 oz.) butter
2 cups small curd cottage cheese
1/8 tsp salt
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Lightly grease a cookie sheet. Combine everything (except Parmesan cheese). Roll out sections of dough into size of a salad plate. Cut into wedges like a pizza. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese generously. Roll up starting from the outside. Place on cookie sheet about 1 inch apart.

Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes.

Kids love hot dogs that are rolled up in the dough and baked (just make them bigger)!! And you can make this without the Parmesan if you prefer.

I Will Take Mine Without Evolution, Thank You.

Things like this peeve me a little…not much, but a little. I have started taking Omega-3, a multi-vitamin and vitamin E, which I purchased at Trader Joes. I love Trader Joes. Their products can be so healthy and they have a great selection. Anyway, there I am minding my own business and I glance over at my Omega-3s and what do I see on the bottle?

”Trader Darwin’s® For the Survival of the Fittest”.

Say what? Okay, I totally get the marketing idea behind this, but still I find it irritating.

I am not going to stop taking them or anything, or boycott Trader Joes, as I am not that radical. I just prefer my vitamins without evolutionary propaganda, thank you. :) I am just sayin.

The Chronology of Christ's Crucifixion and Resurrection

I was sent this website by Shannon Foster and it details Christ's crucifixion and resurrection. I love to really think about what Christ would have been doing during this week.

Word's Of Wisdom

"Love is not the smooth ride you expect. It’s like a car with one bad tire. You’re always having to hold onto the wheel to keep that car on the right road, to keep it from driving you both into the ditch. I know you think your grandfather and I had the perfect marriage, that we were as matched as two socks. But what you saw was the result of sixty years of holding on to that wheel—with two pairs of hands. One person isn’t strong enough to do it, although there will be days when you’ll feel like you’re the only one steering that car. Trust in your love. And trust that during the tough days ahead—and there will be tough days, just as there will be days so wonderful you will think you have kissed the edge of heaven—trust that the other three wheels will carry you.”

awwww!!!

Waste Not Want Not

I have been deleavening my house and came across a box of saltines, so I decided to make this very simple recipe called Poor Man's Toffee that I got from Crystal at Biblical Womanhood.

On a baking sheet, spread out:

1 sleeve of Saltine crackers

In a small saucepan over medium-heat, melt:

1 stick butter
1 cup brown sugar

Once the mixture is gooey, pour evenly over crackers. Bake at 350 degrees for five minutes, until bubbly. Remove from oven, and sprinkle on top:

2 cups chocolate chips

As the chocolate melts, spread it evenly around. Pop into the refrigerator until set, then cut apart the candy.

I may try this one next, although I won't be able to use deleavening as an excuse :)

Microwave Fudge

2 bags milk choc. chips
1 can eagle brand milk
1/2 tsp vanilla

Put in microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 2 min. Stir well. Pour on wax paper. Let firm in the refrig. Cut and Serve.

Another Bad Day

It was another rough day at work. By the time we got to 10:00, four staff members had been let go. Including the two attorneys there were let go on Friday, that is six all together! The Managing Partner and HR director called a meeting at 10:15 to explain their decision, which from a business standpoint totally made sense. We are almost in a recession and part of our firm's practice is Real Estate law.

Needless to say, everyone was working very hard today. The two secretaries that were let go were not known to be team players, so everyone is bending over backward to be helpful and cover wherever needed.

I feel SO bad for the people that were let go. Needless to say, I am feeling very protected and very blessed. This whole situation has made me feel all the more passionate about getting my debt paid down and my finances in order.

Would you like condoms with your swag?

I chanced across this article about the principal of a high school in Bisbee, Arizona deciding to pass out condoms on Prom Night with the gift bags they hand out that night. Is this not crazy? Some of the parents are very upset about it, but once you put your children in public school you have no say regarding what they are taught in the area of sexuality. This is one of the many reasons I think homeschooling is such a good idea (that is a whole different topic).

One of the comments made was, ""All that the policy of handing out condoms for our youth does [is] condone and indirectly approve the short-term immediately satisfaction…," wrote Chuck and Sharon Tuell in a letter to the editor in the local Sierra Vista Herald newspaper. "Your decision is obviously every short-sighted. We are very disappointed.""

Oh, and guess what? Not only is Bisbee a dinky little mining town, but it is also my dad's home town, yikes!!!!! Things sure have changed, huh daddy?

Rough Day

I had a rough day at work. Two attorneys were let go yesterday, which they announced today. One of them is my friend Ted. He is such an awesome guy and a great attorney. He took it really well and has many many options, so I don't think he will have any problem getting another position. Plus, it will give him more time to focus on his upcoming race (Triathlon).

So, you know as soon as he told me I started to cry. Poor guy, I don't think he knew what to do with me. I have been praying that God will bless Ted for his many kindnesses to us. I am going to miss him so much. I hate saying "good bye".

:(

A Magazine for the Modest?

Sometimes when I should be working, I like to look at blogs! Not all the time, I promise! Anyway, guilt aside, I like to check out Modestly Yours every couple weeks or so. I love Wendy Shalit's writing and she is very funny. I enjoy the ironic tone to many of her posts. I came across a magazine that she mentions called Eliza. You know this caught my attention as I love fashion and all things girlie!

This is just a brief blurb from the Eliza's website:

ELIZA Magazine is created for women who want to be stylish, sexy, and engaged in the world while retaining high standards in dress, entertainment, and lifestyle. In a media culture that frequently objectifies and commercializes women and their bodies, ELIZA strives to provide an alternative to the current mainstream media that emphasizes sex and skin in order to push products or sell magazines.

I didn't have very high expectations for the website, but I was happy to see that it is awesome and very well done. I put in my subscription for the magazine itself, so I will see how it turns out. I have been thinking more and more about modestly lately. It can be such a constant battle to be modest, because there really is a sense of accomplishment felt when I am admired by men. I guess that test is whether they are admiring me, or my cleavage! Darn genes. :)

• Side Note: I was actually in a wedding a couple of years ago that my parents were also at. I had to warn my father before hand not to attempt to rise up out of his seat during the ceremony to cover me up, as our dresses were seriously risque! My dad thought it was funny until he saw the dress. I told my sister that I felt like I was channeling Pamela Anderson...and not in a good way (is there any good way?). I wish I had put my foot down and not worn it now, but at the time I didn't want to cause waves. Sigh. Every time I see pictures I cringe.

On the other side of this issue is being too modest...okay not really, but more frumpy I guess. I have seen many ladies that swing a little too far to the other side and end up looking completely unattractive for fear they will cause a man to sin by looking too appealing. Don't get me wrong, I think we have a total obligation to our brothers in Christ. We have to help them guard their hearts, but I do think some people take that to extremes, while others completely write this responsibility off as it being "not my problem". That is not the tract that any Christian woman should take, because as Cain proved, we are our brother's keeper.

I am certainly not going to go out and buy a burka, but I have to wonder if I am being as modest as I should, or more importantly as modest as God would like.

There are two great articles from 2003 here and here from the United News called Modesty in Dress: A Vanishing Virtue Parts 1 and 2.

Three is Too Many?

I got a big chuckle out of this article. So, now it is considered to be showing off to have more than two children?

I am not exactly a "quiverfull" believer, but pretty darn close. I know that sounds radical to many people, but I think we as Christian underestimate God's desire to be a part of every area of our lives, even the size of our families.

On the topic of children and such, I am always shocked to find out that some people don't even know that birth control pills are considered an aborficiant. For more information on BC, you can look here. Most of my girl friends have no idea that birth control pills can cause your body to abort a fertilized egg! And that most other methods, save barrier ones, are almost all aborficants, which in some way or another they can cause (not always) your body to self abort a fertilized egg. I wouldn't take the chance!

And I know some people think, yeah look at her she's 35! If she ever gets married she won't have time to have a lot of children, but believe me if I could...I totally would...in a heartbeat!!

I hope my thoughts don't offend anyone, but this is what I believe. :)

What Would Christ Do?

Growing up I had two cousins that came to many family functions. Their dad had grown up in my grandparents house, although he was not blood related. I can remember him telling many funny of stories about my grandfather Mac, who died before I was born. My grandmother went on to marry a wonderful man two years before I was born, who I loved dearly.

One of the cousins was a girl named Leslie. I was always in awe of her because she was very beautiful and I was always shy around her. She was always very nice to me and I always liked talking to her. Unfortunately, she started using drugs which I think went back to her teenage years. I only saw her sporadically after that. I think the last time was at her brother's wedding many years ago, but I can't remember.

In 2006 she was brutally murdered by her "boyfriend" and today he was found gulity of first degree murder and lots of other charges that are too gruesome to go into. I was going to give the link to the article, but decided not to. It is just too icky and I already posted it on myspace and regretted it.

I know I am to pray for this man. I think it is what Christ would do in my place, but it's hard. It is so much easier to forgive someone when they have asked for that forgiveness...and it is a whole nother kettle of fish when that person is completely remorseless.

Ultimately, I am grateful that God will be the Judge of mankind. Leslie and this bad man will get their chance before God and at salvation. Neither of them are hopeless, they will get their chance.

Please pray for Leslie's family, which includes her teenage son. Even though there is some closure for them with this verdict, this just sucks all the way around.

Delight Thyself in The Lord

I am always amazed how God gives me just the encouragement I need, exactly when I need it. It can very hard to stay encouraged and not get sad about being single. I am completely committed to staying in obedience to God and waiting on His will for my life, but some times it can be a battle to keep my eyes on what God has for me right now. I know marriage will not be a cure to unhappiness or the answer to all my prayers, but that knowledge doesn't stop me from desiring it very much.

I was in that mindset when I was perusing some blogs that I like and I came across this verse.

“Delight thyself also in the Lord, and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass” Psalm 37:4-5.

God is so good to me.

Lesson Learned

I learned today that when you are baking fresh bread in the bread maker and it says, "do not leave in machine after buzzer goes off", they are serious!! I put the bread in and then went shopping with my mom. We ended up shopping longer than I thought we would be. So, much for my plan to get rid of as much of my leavening as possible and not be wasteful! LOL
Live and learn!!

At first glance, it looks great...but then.

No, that is not a moon crater, that's my bread!

It looks like a stage for a theatre!!

Cookie Party

Lizbeth Holstein

For the last five years we have organized a Cookie Party for the children at church. I bake about 120 unleavened cookies in all kinds of shapes and then we have a party where the children decorate the cookies. The icing is great because it hardens and is easier to package. Then on the next Sabbath or Holy Day, whichever comes first, the children hand the cookies out to the elderly at services. We also mail them out to the shut-ins in our area.

One year we made soap as well as cookies, but we have a little problem with some of the elderly not reading the note which stated, "Do not eat. This is soap". They got a big surprise and learned glycerin does not taste good! Fortunately, the ones that did it thought it was hilarious! Phew!

This is such an fun and amazing project! The children get to serve the elderly and they LOVE it. I think it really builds a sense of family within the congregation and helps build character in the children. The kids in our congregation are such an amazing blessing. They are all very well behaved and ready to help.

Here are the recipes we use (I got them from Color A Cookie), in case anyone wants to try this at home.

Butterscotch Shortbread

Makes about 30 cookies.

• 1/2 cup softened margarine or butter
• 1/2 cup shortening
• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 1/4 cups flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Combine butter, shortening, vanilla and sugars in a bowl. Stir in flour and salt. Mix well with your hands. This makes a dry dough. Sheet dough with rolling pin on lightly floured surface. Sheet to about 3/8" to 1/2" inch thick. Cut out your favorite shapes with cookie cutters. Lay them on a cookie sheet about 1" apart and bake for 25 to 30 minutes.These cookies will change in color and shape only slightly.

Smooth Coat Base Icing

Makes 3 cups of Smooth Coat base icing. I let the kids use food dye and pick colors they like and then they sprinkle all kinds of sprinkles on them.

• 3 3/4 cups confectioners sugar
• 3 Tablespoons meringue powder
• 8 Tablespoons warm water

Beat 4 to 4 1/2 minutes on medium speed. Lift the icing out with a spoon and let it drizzle back in. If the drizzle settles in time it takes to count to between 5 and 10 then the mix is the correct consistency. Add more confectioners sugar by the tablespoons to make stiffer and more water by the teaspoons to make thinner.

To apply the icing you can either dip the face of the cookie or apply with a pastry brush.

Recipe - Chocolate Caramel Square (ULB)

I made these for someone's birthday last week at work and realized that these are perfect for the Days of Unleavened Bread and super easy!! So, I thought I would share :)

Chocolate Caramel Squares (from the Chocolate Box cookbook)
Makes 16

Bottom Layer

1/3 cup soft margarine or/butter
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup rolled oats

Caramel Filling

2 Tbsp unsalted butter
2 Tbsp brown sugar
¾ cup condensed milk

Topping

3 ½ oz. semisweet chocolate

Preheat over to 350 degrees. Beat together the butter and brown sugar in a bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in the flour and the rolled oats. Use your fingertips to bring the mixture together, if necessary.

Press the mixture into the bottom of a shallow 8 inch square cake pan.

Bake the mixture in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until just golden and firm. Cool in pan. (I threw it in the freezer for a few minutes).

Place the ingredients for the caramel filling in a saucepan and heat gently, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Bring slowly to a boil over very low heat, them boil very gently for 3-4 minutes, stirring constantly, until thickened.

Pour the caramel filing over the oat layer in the pan and let set.

For the topping, melt the semisweet chocolate and spread it over the caramel. Let set, then cut into squares to serve.

It IS an Honor!

I admit it...I do, occasionally look at the celebrity gossip websites. And I do mean occasionally! But sometimes I see things that shock and irritate me (besides girls running around without their knickers or morals!) And yes, it is my own fault, but this whole thing bugs me.

You see...there was a blurb about Jessica Alba. Don't get me wrong I hate the fact that she is pregnant outside of marriage, but every child is a blessing. Well, this blurb was discussing the rumor that Ms. Alba is having a girl and that she would like to name her Honor.

Quote, "The source went on to say, "This woman was so exited that Jessica is having a girl. She said she loved the name too, Honor, and said Jessica picked it because she felt it was an honor to have Cash's baby. She said she couldn't wait to give it to Jessica this weekend. She asked twice if the bracelet would be ready by then." Press pause. She thinks it's an honor to have a man's baby? What the hell is this? Medieval times?" End of quote.

Okay, that just peeves me. Yes, it's an honor to have someone's baby! This world has turned so amazingly anti-man/anti-masculinity that it is mind boggling. Heaven forbid a woman should actually feel its an honor to bear a man's child. If more people considered it an honor whether man or woman there would be a whole lot less sex outside of marriage.

I can't wait for the day, God willing, that my future husband honors me with bearing his children.

Another example of why the feminists viewpoint gets on my nerves. So, there! :)

Is this too far?

For as long as I can remember I have heard about how the subject of money can ruin a marriage. It has been said that money is the top reason for divorce. And yet, when I came across this article (entitled, "Quit fighting -- get a postnuptial agreement") my first instinct is to cringe. Okay, and my second and third instinct was cringing too.

I just can't envision being in a marriage where we would be so opposite in our views on money. In a God centered marriage I would think that a couple would have not only discussed how they would handle money, but that the husband would be sensitive to the wife's concerns and the wife sensitive to the husband's role as head of the house.

Maybe I am naive, or just living in a dream world. I have never been married and have always controlled my own money, so maybe I would handle money as a couple differently, but you can bet it would be discussed before I even got married. If money is the cause of so many divorces, why aren't people talking about it before hand?

Being a Christian or called doesn't make any of us automatically good with money. That is a learned skill and value system that we are either drawn to as an adult or taught by someone (hopefully our parents).

I am not that great with money, but I recognize the importance of being a good steward of what God has blessed me with. That is one of the reasons I really like the advice of Dave Ramsey. It is also why I am teaching myself (with God's guidance) how to be better with money.

I guess I just don't understand the concept of being married for 20 years and then deciding that I need some legal document to make me feel secure. I feel really bad for the couple in the article. I hope their marriage survives.

Is it just me or is being a grown-up complicated? Yikes.

Winning at Losing

This is a great article by Candice Watters. I can relate to SOOOO much of it. Candice is a great writer and her style of writing is very personal and easy to relate to.

I must be getting old

I find myself regularly getting outraged by the images of scantily clad women everywhere! I was at the drug store and what do I see at the check out? At least five magazine with women in suggestive poses, with little to no clothes. Don't get me wrong, I adore fashion, but I just don't get it. People have to pass by all that with their children, not to mention with their husbands! I will probably one day be the wacky mom handing out the blindfolds to the entire family until we safely pass through magazine Gomorrah.

I remember several years ago a guy friend of mine went to go see one of the Matrix movies. He left the theatre during the sexual scenes because he said, "I am getting married in couple of weeks and I certainly don't want all that crap in my head, especially before my wedding night". Now that is some serious character!

Guys like this are the only instance where cloning might be a good thing! Okay, totally joking on the cloning! Just in case you were wondering :)

Women Praying Boldly

I love this website! It is so encouraging. Candice Watters writes very well and is very encouraging to single women that are waiting on God's will. I haven't even had a chance to go through all her posts. I LOVE finding stuff like this to read :)
