Better one handful with tranquility than two handfuls with toil and chasing after the wind.

If you are what you eat, I am Japanese chocolate
The ears are feeding on mewithoutYou - The Soviet
It's Kayla!! I found her!! Odd, though... I don't remember her looking like that. Oh, well. I suppose people do change quite dramatically in 4 years.
Crazy weekend. Church was so incredibly awesome this morning, and I'm not saying that just because the youth led it, but really. Everyone did such a great job, things were looking quite bleak yesterday because of the pandemonium that the lack of time caused, but God poured 500 truckloads of grace (funny how I'm limiting that... you know what I mean) and everything went so incredibly well. And God was there. It was awesome. Even when we ran out of things to say and our voices cracked and Isaku forgot how to sing a song.
Eeeeeishjgljglk. I'm so proud of everyone. And! The white chocolate cheesecake (recipe-less) and shepherd's pie (recipe-less) and invisible scones (...not counted) turned out so very well.
Anyway, photos. I know, it's been a while but ta dah, here they ah! Yeah, it is unfortunate that that little spelling deviation was intentional.

If you are what you eat, I am laksa
The ears are feeding on Anathallo - A Great Wind More Ash (MUST buy the CD)
It's Monday now. Had to save that post since I hadn't uploaded more photos. Lazy.
So. Today.
1. There was an earthworm that caused quite a commotion at my Grandma's house just now (she had thought it was a stray rubber band on the floor, even though there was sticky yellow juice oozing out of it), which greatly worsened the already colossal headache I was nursing.
2. My Dad bought the other Donald Miller book. Yay! I've got lots of books to read, but somehow I always end up getting stuck on the computer - like now - instead of finishing the many, many, books I'm concurrently reading. (Let's see... Mere Christianity, Velvet Elvis, Beasts of No Nation, How We Are Hungry, The Ragamuffin Gospel, Finding Myself, Who Made God?) It's bad. I've had Kurt's book for probably a month now, so that's the one I should be finishing. I don't know why I'm taking such a long time though... Must be all that blood and gore. Interesting that the only fiction I've been limiting myself to is McSweeney's. Raiding Meg's bookshelf wouldn't work.
3. An incentive, that, on further thought, will actually work in getting me to send my ITCC applications in: Kurt will get $10 for every sequential day should I fail to send said forms in after Thursday. He clarified that he is nice enough to not take my money, but what/who else will motivate me to send the forms in, other than my absolute passion for the particular subject I'm going to be studying?
Oh, wow. Studying. Me - studying. Hahaha!
4. Anathallo should be listened to, very loudly.
5. I don't know how I got the Fowl Words thing to be Power Player-ed in the church office. But yay! I think that's what gave me a headache, though.
6. Meg reallyreallyreally likes Oliver James and Jesse McCartney. Why?! I think she needs help but she thinks otherwise. *sigh*
7. I ate breakfast with my parents this morning. I realized I hardly get to eat with them in the morning since I leave for, uh, work, while they have brekkie. I was feeling all clean and shiny (...work), and they were looking all cute and sleepified in their jammies. I don't remember what we talked about, but it was nice just sitting there with them. My parents are awesome. They are like bright and shiny buttons. Sooo cute. Why did I use the word shiny twice, referring to myself, and then to my parents? I guess we're a shiny family. Reuben is quite shiny, too. Thankfully not glittery. That would be taking the apparent metrosexualness to the next notch.
8. I felt a leftover sense of choler this afternoon, from last night's interesting exchange with someone who I still can't quite agree with.
Yeah, I had to think of something to do with choler-ation, because choler is the word of the day. Haha! Choleration! Incholeration! Okay... I'll stop there.
9. An obnoxious saleslady looked miffed (I could tell she was indignant about helping me save money) when she pushed for some random shampoo and I told her I didn't want a cheaper and better product, and that I wanted Redken. That same lady tried to sell my Dad a noxious (ha! Obnoxious... noxious... yeah. Anyway.) brand of cheap cologne. Gross.
10. My parents are punny.
HAHAHHAHA!! I'm sorry that that actually cracked me up. I don't crack myself up very often, because all my innards would be quite a mean sight, like earthworms in earthworm juice.
Okayyy. I should stop.
OHHHHHH I JUST TALKED TO KAYLA!! Finally!! Skype is really, it just... it's so great. Ahhh.
Meg, Jeremy, Nick. Kitchen fun!!
Some flour and butter action... You wouldn't believe the stories (and.. noises) that were created out of smooshing butter and flour.
An entire sink full of peelings. Gross.
Oh, carrots. Jeremy came up with the nifty idea of peeling them with a spoon. They turned out quite hideous. I also got discoloured. (Kinda went for the jaundiced look)
Meg and I contributed to the state of the tomatoes and onions!
The cracker crumbs - my pride and joy
The cracker man - Isaku's creation
Evolution, or creation? (Creation.)
Can you see Meg's teeth?
