"A home is a place where you can go and rest, where you feel safe and comfortable and everything is familiar and you know everyone and you are known. We don't have a true home here on earth, but we have resting places..." I am grateful for this resting place.
Genuine laughter. Tickling. Group hugs. Homemade dairy-free ice cream atop apple crisp. Clucking at Packer's games. A warm fireplace. Dog kisses. "We really like you." Sunsets out the back window. Pour over coffee. "We are glad that you came." Chocolate almond milk. Full gas tanks. Kitchen conversations. A puzzle on the coffee table. Love. Acceptance. Home.

Sam and I took another swing at omelette making. If you're wondering where the name came from, read this.
Russel Westbrook Rookie Omelette Ingredients eggs red peppers smoked paprika pepper deli turkey (we used sundries tomato) feta cheese Cook like omelettes. Eat like omelettes. [Also, check out our Holland/Adam spoof below. Don't worry, it's just because I like them a lot.] Top reasons why I will never be a food blogger: 1. I don't take pictures of food on wooden floors 2. I've blogged twice in the last month... none of which was related to food 3. I name the foods I make long annoying names that have almost nothing to do with what they are made of On that note, I'd like to present to you the Scottie Pippen Rookie Omelette! Sam and I are on an omelette mission right now and per my suggestion (who am I?) we are naming all of our omelettes after famous (questionable) basketball players. The rookie bit just means it's our first go at this particular recipe. There are reasons the omelettes relate to their namesake, just don't ask me about it. Scottie Pippen Rookie Omelette
Ingredients eggs brown sugar & butter for caramelizing white onions red apples red peppers poblano peppers cinnamon feta cheese Sam was the omelette master, while I put the slices of red apples and white onions in a pan with the brown sugar & butter. We put red peppers and poblano peppers in a pan with some olive oil and cinnamon. After all of the pans were done cooking, we put all of the ingredients inside of the omelettes with a bit of feta. Notes: If we were to do this again, we would have cooked the apples less than we did this time; we would have added them after the onions were almost cooked. We also want to experiment with red onions. I want to look back and not remember the stress, the papers, the applications, the portfolios, the lack of sleep.
I want to remember my sister visiting and the joy, laughter, and tears she brings. I want to remember painting dates at acoustic and Sunday night hoagies. Also, jamming in the car to Simon and Garfunkel. I want to remember ethnic fabric and those two dolls. I want to remember waking up to beautiful sunrises and snippets of God's paintings. I want to remember the joy on Alley's face as she saw us there and when she got to eat that ice cream cone. I want to remember that I had joy and peace and knew of love and care. |

I'm guessing I'll have it all figured out by the time I turn 30.
