Waiting on God's Job

After 5 months of waiting, my husband started working at his full time job with stellar medical benefits on Dec. 13th! Prior to our move to North Carolina he began filling out applications in the area. By July he flew to NC for two weeks hoping to have some interviews. He came home with nothing. Not one interview. His only job lead was given to someone else. Our hope was to leave Kansas with a job waiting for him in NC so there wouldn’t be much lag time between paychecks. That simply didn’t happen. Believing that going to seminary in North Carolina was what God wanted for our family, we followed through on our moving plans.

The Joy of Cooking???

Learning to enjoy cooking has been a slow process for me. When I was a kid both of my parents worked so I grew up fixing dinner after school before they came home. My Mom taught me fast, economical recipes that took very little skill. We had a big, busy family and had to fix enough to fill everyone up without breaking the budget. This information proved very valuable to me during our first years of marriage and also the more penny pinching times while Moriah’s medical care was so intense. Typically, I found that recipes intimidated me if they involved too many ingredients or took too much time.
