Haha, my first bite of coconut milk ice cream. At this moment, I was sure I wasn't going to ever eat another bite. As I am typing this now, the carton I just finished is inches away from my computer. Some things you choose to get used to!

February 2, 2013: Happy Deal!!
I can't say I loved today. I spent a lot of time wandering around Whole Foods, trying to figure out what I can be eating that has no gluten. Just when I would find something that looked promising, I would check the label to find it had dairy in it. All the while, I am completely conscious that I am not nearly earthy or health nutty enough to be walking around Whole Foods. I don't smell musty enough and I felt like everyone could tell I come from a family that uses pesticides on our fruit farm. Feeling discouraged, I grabbed some bulk quinoa and coconut milk ice cream and headed to World Market instead to pick out a tea pot as a special treat to myself. I saw this really cute one, brought it up to the register and discovered it was on sale marked down from $20.00 to only $2.99! Eat it, organic yuppies! You spend way too much on wormy apples, and I get tea pots for 85% off!
February 1, 2013: Hey, Chuck.
So first of all, Katie actually took this picture, but I had to use it because Brookie is SO cute. We took her and Jackson to Chuck-E-Cheese for the night. The whole night Jackson kept waving to Chucky and saying, "Hey, Chuck!" I was dying.
January 31, 2013: Hermitology 101
I can already feel myself slipping into the beginning stages of hermitry. Who am I kidding, I am well past stage one and into full blown antisocial winter hibernation. My leg hair is grown out, I am eating left overs every night, Aside from Katie and the occasional phone call home I am rarely talking to adults, and my most exciting decision of the day is which sweat pants/ sweatshirt combo I am going to wear for the night. ( The grout-fit has won on numerous occasions). Get ready for a string of want to die of boredom pictures in the next month, because I HATE FEBRUARY!

January 30, 2013: Romans
My small group is going through Romans: Inductive style. This is my first time doing a study like this. On one hand I love it because it forces me to slow down and really dig into the text. I am learning a ton and being reminded daily of God's grace. On the other hand, if I have to draw a gavel over the word justified one more time I might lose it :) praise God for giving me a group of women who are eager to dig into this with me, help me sort out things when I am confused, and find joy in knowing God will always be bigger than we can imagine. I love these girls. So thankful for what God has blessed me with. And that He sticks with me when I definitely don't deserve it.
January 29, 2013: Gluten free is better than I thought
...well so far. I am only at day 3. The stuffed peppers and quinoa rocked. I am new to this whole taking pictures of my delicious food thing, so next time I will try to capture the meal before I go at it with my knife. At least I hadn't smothered it in ketchup yet!
