Esther

I joined an online Bible Study through "Good Morning Girls" - they are starting this Sunday with the book of Esther. I'm excited!   It's been awhile since I've been able to be part of a Bible Study, and I'm looking forward to a new format. I'm also looking forward to using the Bible I got for my husband for his birthday - ... they sent me a copy that was missing a page or two of Psalms, so I wrote to them and they let me keep that copy and sent me another one.   I gave the not-ripped one to David, and wrote some quotes from famous speakers, etc. in the margins here and there for him. I kept the other one for myself :)

It is an ESV Study Bible - Deliciously large and full of great, informative notes.

Yay hurray!

Magic bread and venison.... Plus salad.

Since being diagnosed with gestational diabetes, it's been hard trying to figure out what my body can and cannot handle (yay, placenta and hormones..   Heh... )
I get great numbers after i eat a big salad, but baby needs more than just salads (like papa, apparently) to grow...   I've been learning a loooottttt about food and how it works ... Did you know that if you eat carbs and pair them with protein and fat your body has an easier time of digesting the carbs' sugar?  :) ... It's all about finding the magical combination ha ha ha...
So i found a recipe for "bread" I can eat .... All it requires is eggs, cream cheese, and cream of tartar. ... Basically, you make meringues.  I just toasted some and they taste like a very light Challah :)  burger time!
