Saturday Morn

Well, I have unknowingly had the best lurkers ever!  I was expecting more comments along the lines of Hey, Wassup? but received so many kindnesses that my day was transformed.  I've always felt so blessed by the people who choose to comment, there is always a lot of support, and I have yet to receive any kind of mean email or comment.  But I didn't know about all the silent readers, sitting at their computers, thinking good thoughts.

I am so glad that you like this blog, so glad that you receive any inspiration from it.  And I loved hearing an old story about a ten-years-ago me, from my old friend Josy.  (Sigh- sixteen-year-old relatively-carefree me, you seem so far away, and yet I remember Madeleine L'Engle's writings about how we are all of our ages, so somewhere that girl is in me.)

Anyways, thank you for de-lurking.  Anyone else who wants to is still welcome.  I love it. 

And now, a confession:

Sometimes I eat chips and salsa for breakfast.  In fact, I think I'm going to do so right now.

Not really de-lurking, as I've commented before, but not as often as I should. :)

I'm not a big fan of breakfast in general but you know what I love? Leftovers for breakfast. But -- restaurant leftovers, not like, last night's leftovers.

you mentioned me! *swoon*
now i'm a celebrity. i shall strut and be hoity toity for the rest of the day.

and well-made nachos are a perfectly legitimate meal.
corn chips - starches and veggies
salsa - more fruit and veggies
cheese - dairy and protien

the only thing lacking is chocolate.

I pretended to be a good mom and made pancakes and sausage. They were shocked that they got suck a neat treat without going to a resturant. Do not think that I put any effort into it. I just had to add water and not burn anything. The sausage was made in the microwave.

I made eggs for dinner because I was lazy. :)

Hi, I have been lurking around for a few months now due to Chris from Notes from the trenches. Since I finally said hi to her this week I thought I would to you too! I really enjoy your blog. Happy New Year!

Rachel,
I really, really love reading your blog. Even though we've never met, you inspire me to be more real. :)

Is Chinua feeling better? I posted on one of your earlier blogs, and I think I will try again today! Can you tell him that Corby and Jessica from Bible College say hello, and we still think he is one of the best worship leaders we have ever met. We would love to get back in touch with him, so maybe you could pass on Corby's email address for me. corby@stephensfam.net
Thanks!
-Jessica
