In a little over a month, I will be in Arizona.

In exactly three months, I will be flying to London.

My dreadlocks are 10 months and 8 days old.

I’ve uploaded almost 3,500 photos to flickr.

I’ve rated over 1,500 movies on Netflix.

I have 202 friends on Facebook and 16 followers on Twitter.

I’ve worked at the hospital for five years.

I’ve been an Orthodox Christian for almost three years.

I’ve been a college graduate for less than one year.

“Is that a month’s supply?”

“Nope,” I answered. “That’s a week’s supply for six people.”

The older woman kindly shook her head and told me, “Well, I certainly wouldn’t want your grocery bill.”

Maybe not, but you wouldn’t believe the muscles I’ve built lugging this cart around on a weekly basis.


Our menu this week:

Tonight: “Finger Food Friday” (sweet potato fries, asparagus, and spinach-stuffed mushrooms)
Saturday: Fried Eggplant with Sliced Tomatoes and Roasted Green Beans
Sunday: Smoky Refried Bean Soup [so, so yummy]
Monday: Sweet Potato and Black Bean Burritos
Tuesday: Vegetarian Chili and Skillet Cornbread
Wednesday: Cauliflower and Black Bean Stew
Thursday: TLT’s (Tofu, Lettuce and Tomato Sandwiches)

We’ve been under a cold spell since Friday (yes, since the first day of Spring. Ironic, no?) But after being cooped up inside for the past several months, even a chilly breeze can’t discourage me from a daily walk to the end of our road and back.

I’ve been quite inspired lately by Nicole’s posts and photos.
Her blog is like a deep breath of fresh air, so if you have the chance,
go take a peek. And then take a long walk. It’s good for the soul.
