Katy’s Weblog
It’s bigger than Black Friday.
A Chick-Fil-A is opening 1 mile from my house tomorrow, and at every Chick-Fil-A grand opening, they offer the first 100 customers 52 Chick-Fil-A meals.
I wouldn’t mind a free chicken sandwich a week for a year.
Would you camp 24 hours for 52 free Chick-Fil-A meals?
I was not a great fan of Alvin and the Chipmunks, but after the movie, I am now a fan.
The cartoon was not that cute, but the CGIs of Alvin, Simon and Theodore were really cute. We all fell in love with chubby Theodore. I want to take him home and tuck him into bed with me.
Yesterday, someone engaged me in a discussion about gay marriage.
I searched for the right words to substantiate my views without coming across like a gay basher or intolerant bigot.
Throughout the discussion, I was thinking, “What would Greg Koukl say? How can I be a winsome ambassador for Christ like him?”
Randy Pausch died yesterday.
In his famous last lecture, he said he had two childhood dreams.
I remarked to my son that I couldn’t think of what my childhood dreams were. Maybe I didn’t any dreams that I passionately pursued.
My son said, “Maybe that’s why you haven’t accomplished anything.”
My mother-in-law makes mochi – yummy!
You too, can make mochi – in 30 minutes or less. Try it.
(you can fast forward if it gets slow…)
A talking animal, a flying human, a house grows out of the ground – these I call miracles. Events that are impossible as defined by our experiences and by what we know of how the world works are definitely miracles.
Are there other types of miracles?
When the probability of something happening is so low that if it happens, wouldn’t they be miracles?
Can you believe I am reading Chaucer when I don’t have to?
My daughter and I were at the library looking at the classics section. She remarked, “I heard Chaucer is really good.”
I don’t remember reading The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer. I didn’t even know he was a poet!
A commercial said:
Five years from now, anything can happen…you could learn French…
I don’t know what they were advertising, but it made me think…5 years from now…
Five years is not a lot of time, yet, it is enough time to make a difference.
I can learn to speak another language in 5 years..
Roald Dahl is best known for Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and James and the Giant Peach.
My daughter is a huge fan of Roald Dahl. She has several of his books, not the whole collection.
I actually think some of his themes, especially the short stories for adults, are a little twisted.
“…so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.” Romans 12:5
We were at church and I asked, “Can I borrow someone’s car to take my daughter home?”
Without hesitation, 2 people handed me their car keys.
Later, I asked, “Can someone give me a ride home?”
