Feast one hundred forty-seven

Appetizer
What do you consider to be the ultimate snack food?

I cannot narrow it down to one, so I have to go with one sweet and one savory. Sweet- grapes; I love how they start out ho-hum and then literally burst in my mouth. Savory- I am a hummus junkie; garlicky, lemony, garbanzo bean-y hummus.

Soup
On a scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 as highest), about how popular is your last name?

I would go pretty low for both my maiden name and my married name. Perhaps 1.5 for my married name and 2 for my maiden name?

Salad
Who is your all-time favorite sitcom character, and why?

Gosh, I am drawing blanks this week. Right now I will go with Karen from Will and Grace. That annoying voice and the constant stream of alcohol and prescription narcotics always proved an interesting mix. A somewhat less vulgar Patsy Stone, if you will.

Main Course
Do you shop online? If so, name some sites you like to browse for goodies.

Does a wild bear live in the woods? Yes, I shop online. Amazon, Lands' End, LL Bean, and 1-800-Flowers are my usual haunts. I can sometimes be found browsing ThinkGeek and Cafepress for fun shirts. My new favorite spot for tees is DownEast Basics- I love their prices and the clothes are modest.

Dessert
Fill in the blank: I think ___________ should be ___________.

Oooo... This will be fun and probably get me into a lot of trouble. I think the IRS should be abolished. I think parents should be intentional about what they teach their children. I think Christians should be less concerned with what the world thinks of us and more concerned with Kingdom work. I think Kelly (that's me) should be quiet now, lest she lose the handful of readers she has...

Each week Susan is our gracious hostess. Dine with us here.

Yeah, not only should parents be intentional about what they teach their children, they should stop taking little kids to horror movies.

(Seriously--every time I see one in the theater, some idiot parent is toting along a baby and a three-year-old. Because nothing says "kid-friendly" like a movie with "massacre" in the title.

I don't know, Kelly, I thought Christianity was ALL about what everyone else thinks? This is so confusing to me. You sure are a radical thinker. Kingdom work... go figure.

Feast One Hundred Forty-six

Appetizer Name something you think is “the best.” Fisher's Popcorn is the best snack food. Ever. Soup On a scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 highest), how stressed are you today? Today was a 9.8 all the way. Fortunately, I have a super-understanding husband who lets me vent and gives me time to get over myself. Yay Jon! Salad What kind of cleanser do you use to wash your face? Until one week ago, when my eyelids swelled up, it was ProActiv . Now I am using Neutrogena . Anyone want some Proactiv? I have two unopened cleansers, and one each of the toner and repairing lotion. Ugh... Main Course Tonight is a blue moon ! What is something that you believe only happens “once in a blue moon.” Once in a blue moon I can get one over on my husband. Maybe. He's pretty quick-witted. Dessert When was the last time it rained where you live? I don't remember, but it has been a couple months. This is the Mojave, after all. We are actually coming up on our "monsoon season" in

I think most folks my age grew up in either a Star Trek house, or a Star Wars house.  I grew up in the former, with reruns of the original series (which my parents liked, but I couldn't stand) and my beloved TNG.  I'm pretty sure Wil Weaton's presence had at least a little something to do with my enjoyment of the show.  I love to ask Alexa for "tea, Earl Grey, hot," or instruct her to "make it so."  In case there was ever any doubt, I am a bit of a nerd.  Case in point, I researched which term to use: nerd, geek, or dork.  Dweeb also came in to the equation, and I found a really cool Venn diagram to help: So, here I sit in my nerdiness, thinking about the coming months and all that they bring.  Each year, I seek a new word to guide my thoughts and actions.  I pray and meditate on scripture during December to see what God has in store for me.  For 2017, the word was abide , which certainly summed up so much of our life with Imogen at home; 2016 was

7 Foods for 1 Entire Month?

On the recommendation of a friend, I just finished reading  7: An Experimental Mutiny Against Excess .  I may begin speaking to this friend sometime in the future...  Just kidding.  Really, though, this book has simply wrecked me. Wrecked me. I have been praying for some time about living a gentler life.  I am not, by nature, a gentle person, so this would have to be Kelly getting out of the way and allowing God to step in. Of course, I was also trying to control exactly what I would let Him have!  How typical. {sigh} Recent events have forced me to give up some control- specifically over changes at work.  I really wish that i did not need to learn lessons the hard way, but that simply is not the case for this girl.  Anyway, 7 has given me a starting point, a way to loosen the death grip of control I have on my life.  Here's the scoop: Jen Hatmaker (author, mother, Bible teacher, and all-around pretty-cool-sounding-chick) embarks on a seven month journey with her family.  In
