Eh?

So I attended a Minnesotan Potluck dinner on Saturday. Nina, my Bible study leader, has this awesome Luthern/Minnesotan cookbook and in honor of the Spam state, we had ourselves a little bit of a feast. I brought Dolly's Minnesotan Chili, which was bound to be a hit. A supplemented Red Pepper with Thai seasoning, which made all the difference! Native Minnesotan salad was also on the menu. For those that don't know, 'salad' refers to a jello based dish that can contain vegies, fruit and/or tater tots. Wild rice soup, rusk, and tater tot casserole were also available. Overall, the food was not too bad! (This is a Minnesotan compliment).

I encourage you to have your own themed potluck. Maybe monochromatic, dried-fruit, or canned fish could be some interesting themes.

Here's a couple of pics from that evening...

I also want to quote Kristen's blog from her latest post. Oh, I am so encouraged by her spirit! Praise God! Here it is...

"so, do i know "rough"? i'm gonna hafta go with "no". a big, fat NO. because this week, instead of Hell, GOD gave me this (a rough week by modern, American standards). i believe "incredibly blessed" may be the better term." ~Kristen H.

I added the emphasis for contextual purposes. Truth without context is death (Derek Webb)! The link to her blog is at the left. I encourage you to read and enjoy!
