To Foam or Not to Foam

We have one of those run of the mill Proctor Silex coffee makers which has seen better days. Our coffee is hot if we don't add any milk or creamer but it is still "iffy" depending on the day. All that said, I'm in the market for a good coffee maker. Now, don't get me wrong, I love foam with the rest of you but mostly I like my coffee hot. We will be having quite a group for Christmas this year so I would also like to make a substantial amount of coffee without being chained to the coffee maker all day. Any suggestions? Maybe a good coffee maker with an assortment of flavorings and toppings? How about going the church fellowship hall route and buying one of those ugly stainless coffee urns and go all out and buy "special" foam coffee cups? You must understand my dilemma at this point.

HELP!!

I Will Shave My Head...

Meet my sweet friend.

Watch her video and hopefully catch her vision. Not everyone can shave their head and look beautiful but Regina can because she shines from within.

Thank you for enlarging your heart to pray for our dear sisters who endure so much. You may or may not agree with any or all of this post but please pray for the dear ones who have already decided on their path.

Bless you on your path.

Passage of Time

There are many events that mark the passage of time. For me, it isn't Fall unless I visit the local Pumpkin Patch. (see previous post)

Or how about planting mums, lighting the first fire of the season and of course the best of all

The Sisters' Fall Show!

I had the best time today shopping at this show. Everything (that was left by the time I arrived) was so beautiful and made with love and care. I left with many treasures and a resolve to get there earlier next time! These girls are not only talented but exemplify the true meaning of gracious hospitality. Mark your calendars for the next show. I'll be there. In fact...I may be the one in the sleeping bag on the welcome mat because I missed out on many treasures :-(
