Thursday Thirteen - Lifelong Learning...

Posted in MEMES

I am a firm believer in learning something new EVERY DAY of my life.  I am also an information junkie.  I listen to talk radio, read books, watch DVDs and videos on nonfiction stuff all the time.  I started back to school a year ago this month and have been loving every minute of my time in school.  I thought I would do a Thursday Thirteen on

13 things I have learned this week...


1.   I don't eat enough every day - Nutrition class - WOOHOO... I get to eat MORE!!!

2.   You can wash away the gluten in a ball of dough and put it in the microwave and have a giant inflated ball.  - Baking class LOL

3.   You can earn a bonus if your school does well -who knew???

4.   No matter where you live squash bugs exist when you grow squash

5.   You CAN eat dessert and lose weight - just not a huge dessert and just not every day

6.   There is a story in the Bible that Ravi Zacharias mentioned in his book that I had missed in all my reading all these years!!!  COOL!!!!!

7.   No matter how much you tell children NOT to answer the door when you are in the shower they will have a VERY HARD time resisting the urge to answer it and then they will get into serious trouble even though it was the cable guy.  Thank GOD the cable guy did not ask to come into the house and they kept the door locked.  We have some more reteaching to do here...  (Perri, I remember when this happened to you!!!)

8.   I learned to make a dry method caramel

9.  I learned how to make chocolate mousse

10.   What is my destiny?  It is to feel, to see, to have all of the senses finally converge in the fullest expression of purpose.  Everything I experience and feel before I arrive at that heavenly home amounts to mere analogy.  Everything in my heavenly home is consummate expression.  Ravi Zacharias in The Grand Weaver

11.   God really does bless you when you are obedient - Ok, so I knew this but it was reiterated to me this week in a big way!

12.   Netflix's Watch Now feature ONLY works in Internet Explorer and NOT in Firefox

13.   When you think you are low on food you get very creative in your cooking - and you might just eat better because of it!!!

Very good things to learn. That dessert below looks like I wish I had the nickname, "secret friend."

I like to learn new things all the time. It is my hope that my children will also be like this. Looks and sounds like you have been very busy. I need to check out your foodie blog. It's been a while. Hope school is going well.
