Spiritually Unequal Marriages

Captain’s Log, Stardate 05.23.2006

Blog book giveaway:
My Thursday book giveaway is ONCE UPON A CHOCOLATE KISS by Cheryl Wolverton.
My Monday book giveaway is A GIRL’S BEST FRIEND by Kristin Billerbeck.
You can still enter both giveaways. Just post a comment on each of those blog posts. On Thursday, I'll draw the winner for ONCE UPON A CHOCOLATE KISS and post the title for another book I'm giving away. Stay tuned.

Unequally yoked: I have a lot of Christian friends married to non-believers, or who used to be non-believers. I can’t even fathom the kinds of issues they have to deal with on a daily basis.

This new blog Spiritually Unequal Marriage is for encouragement and practical advice. It’s a totally awesome ministry. Even if you’re not in a spiritually unequal marriage, please go show your support and say a prayer.

TMI:

Writing: Several friends insisted I need to reward myself for finishing my manuscript, so I went to Safeway and bought four pounds of bing cherries. These were not cheap, mind you. I love cherries. This is one of the best parts of living in California.

The cherries are in a Japanese bowl I got as part of a set for my wedding.


Diet: Not doing too badly considering I’ve been busy. No over-2000-calorie days, anyway, but I’m also not exercising, which is bad. I have to get back into the rhythm of that once my workload eases up.

    OOOOOOhhh....Cherries! I'm so envious.

    They're really expensive in Japan -- like $5 for 4 oz or something. >.<

    Sounds like a great way to celebrate. Nothing canned compares to fresh cherries. Now if they were dipped in chocolate . . . ;)

    Yum, those cherries look delicious. Guess why I don't buy cherries or strawberries and other fruit like that. Most of ours come from places like Florida or California. With a couple of 1000 miles to go on today's gas prices, imagine how expensive they are here.

    I also love that boowl. Reminds me of my almost-see-through china tea set. I love that color of blue with white and the yummy red cherries. Even a feast for the eyes.

    I couldn't image marrying a non-Christian. In some ways it would probably be almost more difficult to become a Christian while you're already married. The conflicts could be staggering. I'm having a hard time coping on my own so I can see why you're always praying for your friends who are in situations like that.

    I grew up in a Christian family and it's still amazing to me sometimes how other people live who don't know Jesus as Saviour. I didn't realize how sheltered I've actually been from a lot of life's realities. Even when I lived alone in Europe, that lifestyle stayed with me: no bar-hopping, going dancing or things like that. I've never minded going into restaurants on my own and except for a few incidents, I've rarely even come close to trouble. He's really been watching over me and that is such a freeing feeling--as long as you don't do anything that people might misinterpret.

    Ooh, I adore bing cherries. I can eat gobs of them. :) I'm going to follow your lead once I finish my book and get myself a treat. Thanks for the prayers, I'm plugging away. :) ~

    I love your bowl of cherries!

    On my blog, I show a green-tea mug served to me in Tokyo. I think I prefer cherries to matcha. : )

No Cold Bums toilet seat cover

Captain's Log, Stardate 08.22.2008 I actually wrote out my pattern! I was getting a lot of hits on my infamous toilet seat cover , and I wanted to make a new one with “improvements,” so I paid attention and wrote things down as I made the new one. This was originally based off the Potty Mouth toilet cover , but I altered it to fit over the seat instead of the lid. Yarn: any worsted weight yarn, about 120 yards (this is a really tight number, I used exactly 118 yards. My suggestion is to make sure you have about 130 yards.) I suggest using acrylic yarn because you’re going to be washing this often. Needle: I used US 8, but you can use whatever needle size is recommended by the yarn you’re using. Gauge: Not that important. Mine was 4 sts/1 inch in garter stitch. 6 buttons (I used some leftover shell buttons I had in my stash) tapestry needle Crochet hook (optional) Cover: Using a provisional cast on, cast on 12 stitches. Work in garter st until liner measures
