Breaking News: assistants serve up some sugar and share some smiles

Katherine, a lovely Godly co-worker of mine whose name has not been altered or changed for this blog, and I decided to serve up some sugar. The workplace (which will remain nameless) can often seem a little "bitter." And for the sake of our souls' taste buds....we wanted to add some sweetness to the seemingly sour week. The cookies, featured above, were well receieved and even brought a few people out of their healthy new year's resolutions. See, what simply seems like $10 dollars and 90 cookies to some, to us represented serving Him (Jesus) by serving others. We may have only given out free cookies, but the smiles we got were so much sweeter than all that sugar. In other unrelated news, you know how you feel when you give up chocolate for lent or sodas and french fries for bathing suit season...and then there's that day you get to taste it again. And oh how you savor it! Today was that day... I got a gift from a friend...that piece of chocolate...that medium-sized waffle fry with polyonesian sauce. And I'll still be savoring it's sweet taste tomorrow...and appreciating the gift giver for knowing how to satisfy the craving (aka sweet tooth). I had an awesome dinner with two genuine awesome female friends. And an unexpected e-mail from a long time friend finished off a great Thursday night. I hope that everyone will find moments to savor and people to truly appreciate.

  1. they look more like cookies than burning coals, but my eyes don't see everything. (see Romans 12:19-21)
