Miscellany Monday

[one] Two blogs in one week.  That's a big deal for me right now.  I never meant to quit blogging...life just happened.  Trying to get back to fitting in some of the things I like to do in between some of the things that have to get done.

[two] I also crafted some this weekend & read at least two chapters (at one time!) of an actual book.

[three] New things all around...I've been trying one or two new recipes a week lately.  These have passed my test: Creamy Avocado Dip, Frozen Greek Yogurt Bars, Broiled Parmesan Tilapia, & Lime Avocado Chicken.  And our absolute favorite that we discovered a few months back, Lemon Angel Hair with Chicken & Spinach.

[four] Next books on my list to read (I'm a slow reader...this could last the rest of the year):

• The Swan House by Elizabeth Musser
• Captive in Iran by Maryam Rostampour & Marziyeh Amirizadeh (They've spoken at our church several times & everyone says the book is great.)
• The Meaning of Marriage by Tim Keller
• Paige Torn by Erynn Mangum (Maybe a beach read?  18 days!)

Read any of these?  Thoughts?  Other suggestions?

[five]  I had a few other things to say...but they all involved pictures, which are not uploading right now for some reason...so I guess I'll save those for another day.
