Smoothies: The Non-Recipe

True confession #1 I don’t think I’m ever going to post a smoothie recipe. True confession #2 Unless I’m baking, I rarely measure when I’m in the kitchen. Smoothies are great because they’re quick. To me, this means no measuring. True confession #3 I don’t have too many food pictures because when I’m in the […]

Smoothies: the Ultimate Quick Fix

green vanilla smoothie with baby spinach and pecans

Breakfast this morning included 3 cups of spinach and a beet. Nutritionally superior to your typical breakfast, but not everyone wants salad first thing in the morning. This is where smoothies come in.

Dinner this Week 4

sausage gyro with Greek salad

Dinner this week is geared for mid-week Indian Summer — salads and grilling. Maybe our last hurrah. Back to fall on Friday with a creamy comfort food. MONDAY Pizza (thank God for Monday night pizza special) and green skinny vanilla smoothies My original quick veggie plan was for pre-washed spring mix salad, but the selection wasn’t […]

The Quiet Sorbet: Vitamix vs. BlendTec

Tall vitamix blender jar

After hundreds of smoothies, our BlendTec is no more. Over a month ago it breathed its last. But it was a blessing in disguise. Now we have a Vitamix, which I like even more. And because our BlendTec was under warranty, we basically got to switch it out for free. You can’t beat that. So […]

It’s Only a Body

It’s only a body. That’s what I said when we talked about death, mine in particular. I pictured my body in a bed (how often do people actually die in a bed?) and my spirit, the real me slipping away, suddenly untethered from its bodily constraints. Free at last. I won’t be there, I said. […]

Born Again and Gay

They’re a conservative Christian family. Church on Sundays, Bible reading every night. Born again. They’re looking for a church where their teen boys can fit in. But they’ve had a hard time finding a church that would accept them, one that isn’t a gay church, that is. I was talking to my old college roommate. […]

In Which Moms Say Goodbye

“Mom, I never want to leave you,” he said. He was four years old. “Aren’t you going to work?” “I’ll only work on Tuesdays so I can be with you all the time.” He’s driving away in a car full of Marines. Her Marine. Her son. She calls out after him, “Don’t forget your jacket. […]

In Which I Offer Up My Writing

Every day I offer up my writing, imagining the five loaves and two fish. Far too often I’m breaking up the bread before I lay it in the basket. And all I’m left with is a bunch of crumbs. I’m meting it out — this bit will go here, this bit I can blog. Too […]

One Last Time

Brain dead. Like anything dead, it seems so final. I’m sitting beside my father’s death bed. There’s that word again. Death. It’s why you say goodbye when you can. Why you say, thank you and I love you, over and over. So when the only sound is the shallow breathing of the ventilator and the […]

Stories

God on Trial

Musing on Genesis 3 “Did God really say you can’t eat from any tree of the garden?” The serpent isn’t so much attempting to verify God’s exact words as he is injecting a note of incredulity, pointing out the absurdity of God’s edict. With one word, the serpent calls into question God’s judgment, his reasonableness. […]

We Were Kind of Hoping They’d Just Go Home

This part of being with Jesus can be exasperating. It’s like you never have a quiet moment. At times I want to shut it all out, go into a dark cave and just forget about all that need pushing its way into my personal space.

Abram & Sarai | A Love, a Lie, and a Promise: Part 2

Surely he had anticipated their lives would be in danger.  Would he now return to Canaan alone?  And what would become of Sarai? Would he ever see her again? Had he completely misunderstood God’s plan?

Into the Darkness | The Sacrifice of Isaac: Part 1

“Take your son, your only son, Isaac, whom you love … . Abraham’s heart had dropped to the pit of his stomach. He could feel the sweat cold on his temples, as he thought, “Lord, could this please not be a hard request, another stretching, another move beyond my comfort zone?” He had wanted to cover his ears, but he could not cover God’s mouth, and God had continued as if he had not known Abraham’s desperate thoughts, as if it did not matter.

Hagar | The Runaway and the God Who Sees

By the time she discovered the spring, her head was hot and throbbing. Dirt streaked across her face where her tears had mingled with the wilderness dust. Hagar sat down to rest, splashing the cool water on her face. For the first time since she left, she realized she had no plan.

The Walking Dead | Adam & Eve: Part 2

The woman he loved had her arm outstretched. She was offering him the fruit, the juice still dripping down her chin. The man watched himself take a bite.
