Seafood–The best!

Okay, so I love seafood.  I was just sitting down to enjoy a nice fresh tuna salad-then it dawned on me-I am telling on Jim! 

You see, Jim and I have been together for 10 years, we enjoy a lot of things together and we are one in Christ-OOOPS-except in one area-SEAFOOD.

HE ABSOLUTELY HATES SEAFOOD(if you don’t like seafood-no need for your comments, I’m on a mission to change Jim’s taste-buds!) We are from Seattle for Pete’s sake!  I don’t know why I am so passionate about him wanting to enjoy a nice Alaskan King Crab from the Beiring Sea but it sound so romantic to me to sit at a candlelight dinner, crab legs just cracking away! (Okay so that’s a little much-but I know God has a deep desire to change his heart where this is concerned-he changed Saul to Paul, didn’t he?)

Anyway, I have a feeling my mission on the transformation is fruitless.  He does grill a mean steak though! Sorry honey, the secrets out!





Sweet Seattle

So I am off to Seattle to see family and friends.  I am very excited to be going home.  Living in Bloomington, Illinois is very nice and I love the small hometown feel but I really miss the creation that God made there.  The Pacific Northwest has to be one of the most beautiful places in the US.  The mountains, the trees, water, and the rain(smell).  I miss the mild winters and 80 degree summers.  I don’t miss the traffic, the crime and the crummy school systems.  So I guess the slow peaceful place of Bloomington is a more tranquil environment.  The thing I miss about home the most is my Grandma.  She is an amazing woman and loves God so much.  I will blog about her and my late grandfather later.  Difficult to talk about but worth the wait!  Anyway, please pray for a safe flight and travels.  Blog ya later!
