The Last Supper


Just a few days before they leave for their 3-year missions trip to South Africa, we had the pleasure of having our dearest friends, the Logans – Kevin, Holly, Emily & Katie – join us for dinner at our home last Saturday. As in the past times, it was a joy to have them, but this particular Saturday was somewhat a bittersweet time, at least for me, knowing that we’re going to be missing these people who we’ve come to consider not just as friends, but as family.

Simply Delicioso

Earlier tonight my hubby displayed his culinary skills by whipping up a super-dooper, wonderful meal. Our friends, the Logans and Aguirres minus Vicky (she was in the hospital with her grandfather) came to our house and joined us for that scrumptious restaurant style but home-made goodness dinner. Joe made a creamy onion soup for starters, grilled a skirt steak rubbed with southwestern seasoning as the entree, and not to be outdone was the cheesy twice-baked potato side dish. Yum'oh! To finish it all off, dessert was the outrageously chocolatey brownies baked by moi -- you can't have too much chocolate! Perfect with a hot cup of coffee ! (Recipe from Barefoot Contessa, for all you Foodnetwork fans out there!) It was a nice time with friends - a little crazy with all the kids running around and our dog Prince barking so much... but it was a "homey" kind of crazines. And hey, we gotta get used to this craziness if we're going to have children of our own, right? To...

Walking On Water

Image
I feel like I am Peter in the bible... not the one who is walking on water, but the one who is sinking in the water. A tropical depression is once again brewing in the horizon of my life and I can only hope and pray that this will not become a full-fledged hurricane. (Do you think I've lived in South Florida long enough? LOL) Seriously though, looks like the stormy weather in my life is far from over. My father has yet again another health issue that we need to deal with ASAP. If you recall in my previous blogs, I have mentioned that blood clotted on his heels and ankles which caused those part of his feet to be swollen. This has started shortly before my mother passed away. My father has seen his doctor once since then, who just gave him antibiotics to take. Well, the swelling has not subsided at all and instead has gotten worse, causing the skin to break out. To make a long story short - I took my father to the Orthopedic surgeon today who then told us that my father needs an op...

Call To Prayer

CALL TO PRAYER Today, March 5th, one of the most significant court cases in America’s history will take place. The California Supreme Court will hear arguments regarding the overturning of the vote of the people last year to pass Proposition 8, which defines marriage between a man and a woman. If this vote is overturned, not only will it set a major precedent of the court’s power over the will of the people, but it will likely be the flash point that will determine the future of America as liberal and homosexual agendas will disseminate throughout the educational systems and into the very fiber of American culture. The California State Senate just ruled against the peoples’ vote and asked the court to overthrow the defining of marriage as between a man and a woman. Senator Leno likened the people who voted for Prop 8 to the Germans who voted for the Nazi Regime. During these past three months since President Obama’s election, the voices of rage against Judeo-Christian values and agains...
