Cooking Lessons

Vacation looked a little like this...

Morning at the Market

I found my new favorite shopping spot.  Wandered around the market this morning and tried to take a few pictures without others noticing.  I came home from the market today with 2 house dresses, 3 different patterns of fabric, bracelets, carrots, limes and sugar.  Didn't really need all those things but I enjoyed talking with different people along the way.

Birthday Fun!

I was spoiled on my birthday this year - definitely enjoyed being in the big city and all it can offer.  First, the day before my birthday I finally got the package Heidi sent me in November!  I was so excited.  My roommates baked me a coffee cake for my birthday breakfast and brought home lunch and we all went out for dinner and ice cream.  I also soaked my feet and scrubbed layers of skin off, while downloading a new Sara Groves album.  And yes after time with my Arabic tutor I went and have coffee at a fancy coffee place...the day was full of goodness.

Christmas Gifts!

John 14:6

And Jesus said: "I am the way and the truth and the life.  

No one comes to the Father except through me."

Morning View

A couple months back I was able to spend the night out in a village and loved it.  I didn't have my camera with me at the gorgeous sunset or to picture the full moon that we sat under eating dinner, but here are a few sights from early in the morning.

 My favorite meal of all time

Kebabs on the grill (and shared with friends but I forgot to take pictures of people...)

 Grandma asked for an Arkansas mug for her birthday

 - so I tried a Pinterest idea and made her a mug (I made two the same just in case)
