My Husband's KILLING Me...

...with CHEESE!!!

Yes, it's true. Being unable to cook has left me at his mercy. Here is his "I can make this" list:

• cheese burgers
• cheese steaks
• cheese pizza (frozen)
• grilled cheese
• pigs in a blanket (a.k.a. cheese hot dogs)
• mac & cheese
• manicotti stuffed with cheese (frozen)
• lasagna filled with gooey cheese (frozen)
• spaghetti topped with mozzarella cheese
• cheese enchiladas (frozen)
• cheese burritos (frozen)
• cheese pizza bites (frozen)
• etc...

Last night he called & said he was picking up take-out for dinner. Pizza.

I said, "For the love of all things that are holy, PLEASE get me a salad!!!"

He did. A chef salad filled with CHEESE and covered with blue cheese dressing!

Did I mention I'm lactose intolerant???

Something To Think About...

I keep a journal of quotes. Do you? I highly recommend it. Reading them at night when you can't sleep can bring laughter, tears, or just quiet contemplation.

This one popped out at me...

"For in our suffering, not apart from it, Jesus enters our sadness, takes us by the hand, pulls us gently up to stand, and invites us to dance. We find the way to pray, as the psalmist did, "You have turned my mourning into dancing" (Psalm 30:11), because at the center of our grief we can find the grace of God." -- Dr. David Jeremiah

I remember writing that one down when Dad was dying. I'm glad I did because we have a dear lady in our church who is now in hospice care. I wanted something meaningful to share with her daughter. I believe God gave me this when I needed it most, but also knowing that I would share it with Laurie. How AWESOME is God??!!
