Simple Woman's Daybook

Outside my window... a steaming 34 degrees, snow on the ground, lovely day. :)
I am thinking... that I need to get out a clipboard and make a list of everything I must do this week.
I am thankful for... the peace of God.
From the learning rooms... amphibians, muscles, Ohio heroes, lots of other stuff.
From the kitchen... three cakes this week- duck/frog baby shower, webkinz pink & white cat, family birthday.
I am wearing... light blue fleece pjs.
I am creating... cake designs AND 25 items to put in the Valentine bags for the widows.
I am going... to change Chase's diaper and straighten up.
I am reading... Sunrise (again- actually skimming it since I finally read all the books in the series before it and now it makes more sense) AND Summer- both by Karen Kingsbury. Actually, I've taken a break from reading while I watch a Korean Drama- Job Well Done. Will be back to reading in about a week.
I am hoping... that the achiness and chest heaviness I feel today is just a 36-hour thing.
I am hearing... Lego Star Wars.
One of my favorite things... Kroger Popcorn.
Praying for... My Mom's surgery tomorrow, the Ward family- who lost their 4-month-old baby in a car accident, a high school friend who lost her baby in her sleep last week, a friend's Mom who was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer, brother-in-law Dan, a heart that trusts the Lord completely.
A Lyric or Two...
Still, My Soul, Be Still- Keith & Kristyn Getty (video below- if you don't know this song, you need to learn it!!)
Still, My Soul, Be Still- Keith & Kristyn Getty (video below- if you don't know this song, you need to learn it!!)
Still my soul be still, and do not fear though winds of change may rage tomorrow.
God is at your side, no longer dread the fires of unexpected sorrow.
Chorus:
God You are my God, and I will trust in You and not be shaken.
Lord of peace renew a steadfast spirit within me to rest in You alone.
Still my soul be still, do not be moved by lesser lights and fleeting shadows.
Hold onto His ways with shield of faith against temptations flaming arrows.
Still my soul be still, do not forsake the Truth you learned in the beginning.
Wait upon the Lord and hope will rise as stars appear when day is dimming.
A verse to share...
Exodus 15:11 Who among the gods is like you, O Lord? Who is like you- majestic in holiness, awesome in glory, working wonders?
A picture thought...

What is actually IN a California roll?? I love Asian food, but I've never ventured into the world of sushi. I think I need someone to go out with who can educate me on what I'm eating so I know if I should say no. Haha!
Did you make that California roll? I had tried sushi and didn't like it. Then I tried it again with "an expert" and decided I did like it.
Kendra,
A california roll has sushi rice, nori (seaweed wrapper), avacado, cuccumber, and either crab (cooked) or shrimp (cooked). California rolls are a good place to start into the world of sushi, because it is cooked. However, if you can get over the thought of eating raw fish, many other kids of sushi and sashimi are super yummy. Another yummy cooked piece of sushi is eel. My favorites are tuna, and even octopus is yummy.
I am a huge Karen Kingsbury fan and I finished up 2 series of hers just last year and was sad when there weren't any more to read!
