Veggies

Captain's Log, Stardate 01.14.2010



I'm on Faithchick today waxing poetic on my favorite topic—food!

Camy here! I'm still going strong on my New Years resolution to eat healthier and exercise!



Believe it or not, I've realized recently that I've grown to love veggies. Who'da thought? I hated veggies growing up. But now I've come to see that it might have been just that the veggies my parents liked weren't what I liked.

Prayer

Captain's Log, Stardate 01.13.2010



I'm at the Love Inspired Authors blog today talking about prayer:

Camy here!



Lately I've been getting more into prayer.



I don't know if I'm actually starting to mature as a Christian or what, but I've been seeing the importance of prayer in my life more and more the past few years.

Excerpt - A SOLDIER'S DEVOTION by Cheryl Wyatt

A Soldier's Devotion

by

Cheryl Wyatt



U.S. Air Force pararescue jumper Vince Reardon was headed to a lifesaving mission. Until a too-pretty lawyer crashed her fancy car into his motorcycle—sidelining him for two weeks. Vince can barely accept Valentina Russo's heartfelt apologies. Ever since his brother was wrongly convicted—and killed in prison—Vince has lost respect for lawyers. But wait—is that Val volunteering at his refuge for underprivileged kids? If Vince isn't careful, this lady of ...

Pink Sunshine Shawl

Captain's Log, Stardate 01.06.2010



While in Arizona, I visited three knitting stores (all I had time and money for, unfortunately!) and bought this gorgeous yarn by Colinette. The model had this silk colorway with a pink mohair, which made it more pink than I wanted because I already have a very pink shawl and while I love pink, I wanted something both dramatic and different from, well, pink.



So I paired this mostly pink silk colorway yarn with a greenish yellow mohair to get this gorgeous ...

He gives Miss Keene little choice but to accept a po...

Dim sum in Arizona

Captain's Log, Stardate 01.04.2009



Happy New Year! We went to Arizona for Christmas to visit family.



We went to dim sum with my husband's relatives while we were in Arizona. I love Chinese dim sum--it's yummy! Here's some pictures:



Here's the spread, although we did get several other dishes after this picture was taken, too, so there was even more food! I have to admit I don't really know what most of this stuff is, just that it tasted good.
