I'm in love...

with this thing. I LOVE brownies. Actually, I like just about anything with chocolate in it. What I don't love is cutting brownies. No joke, they usually end up turning out like this:

These are not mine, but they look exactly the same.  

So when I saw my new love in a cabinet at a friends house, I snatched it up and took it home to try out.  Here is what my brownies looked like after using the Perfect Brownie Pan Set:

Again, not my brownies, but pretty darn close. 

I didn't have a box of brownies so I had to make some from scratch, which turned out disastrous, but they were a delight to cut.  Throw a little vanilla ice cream and hot fudge and you couldn't even tell how bad they were.  

So now I just have to figure out how to make my friend forget that she ever lent this to me so I can keep it forever and ever.  

  

Hubby had the day off yesterday so we decided to rearrange the furniture. Actually, I decided to rearrange the furniture and roped Hubbs into helping... poor guy. He's a trooper. 

You know what happens when you do a house project, right? Everything gets thrown all over the place and, as my youngest daughter says, "It looks like we just moved in." She's right. 

Hubby is back at work today, so here is what I'll be working on today, all by myself...

Kind of disastrous, isn't it?  You'll notice that my kitchen was included in these pics.  I'm just going to pretend it looks that way because of the rearranging.  

Ok, I'm off to get started.  Wish me luck.  

wouldn't it be fun to do this?

G.O.S.P.E.L.

watch this...

  

Lead Me to the Cross

Thank you, Lord

... for taking great care and detail in the creation of me

... for dying on the cross for my sins and rising from the dead 

... for giving me a hope and a future

... for loving me far beyond what I deserve

I love this song.  I can't listen to it without crying.  It's a great reminder of what Christ did for us on the cross.  It's so easy to take it for granted - to make light of it or think it's just a story.  

My prayer is that we would daily be led to the cross, surrendering our will for His, living a life that reflects His light and love.  

Happy Easter.
