Thankful for time spent with my kids! So very thankful to God that my kids walk with God and sincerely seek him. I wish I can take credit for that, but it is in spite of me that my kids are good kids. I am but a sinner. It is all His grace.<\/p>\n
Started the day meeting Elliot and Nancy at the farmer’s market at Mariner’s Church. I am so impressed with how the church opens their grounds for the community. Families come out and kids are playing on the church’s children’s playground. I don’t know of any Chinese church that generously invites the community to use the church property this way. Mariner’s church even have a couple of little trains offering free rides for the kids. I love it!<\/p>\n
A quick glance through their community thrift store yield no treasures. Also didn’t have much time. Was anxious to get on to the picnic.<\/p>\n
Elliot and Nancy planned an early lunch picnic for my birthday – complete with cutting board, knife, chopsticks, wasabi, artisanal soy sauce, ginger – and buying fresh sashimi at the farmer’s market. First ever sashimi picnic – with salmon, tuna, and HUGE scallops.<\/p>\n
At the farmer’s market I also bought grass fed beef bones – $7\/lb. I know it’s a splurge for bone broth. I know you can get steak at that price.<\/p>\n
Came back for Eugenia’s baby shower. Notable are games of all worksheets – unscramble baby words, completing nursery rhymes, naming kids in TV shows, matching animal baby terms with its parent (puggles is the baby of a platypus). It was great seeing old friends.<\/p>\n
Then dinner with Audrey and Danny at home with roast duck, roast pig, roast pork, and sashimi and seared HUGE fresh scallops\u00a0that I bought at the farmer’s market. Great conversation and ended with King’s Hawaiian cake – flavors Lime, Passion Fruit, Guava.<\/p>\n
Day ended with doing a face mask.<\/p>\n
I shall enjoy rereading the birthday cards I received from my kids. I always tell them I want them to write at least one paragraph in the cards they give me. No other gifts necessary. They still gave me gifts though, exactly stuff that I needed.<\/p>\n
A full and happy day!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
