Day 62

Only thirty eighty more days to go. I have completed my ten things for the day. I had a hard time tonight deciding what I wanted to do. Do you ever have days where nothing sounds appealing to you? and then there are other days when you want to do all kinds of things but there is not enough time or you don't have the energy. Being a human can be challenging. Some times it seems like animals have it easier.They can lay around in their fur coats eating nuts and berries or go swimming and they don't have to find shoes to match their outfit and they don't have to cook, do laundry or wash dishes.

I practiced my Spanish and the piano this evening. I am almost to the end of my piano book :) I worked on algebra and I read my books. I organized in the kitchen and home office. I gave my self a facial and I made a couple of loaves of apple pumpkin bread. it is a recipe from one of my cookbooks. Not one that I created.I have never made it before . I hope it turns out OK. I have about eighty five cookbooks. I have a slight cookbook addiction.

 Think about how many millions of recipes are out there. Yet many of us eat the same kind of things over and over. When you go out to eat your standard restaurant will have a lot of the same kind of dishes on there menu ( French dip, BLT, Tuna melt, Hamburgers, etc) Don't get me wrong I do like those things, but we have enough recipes out there to eat something different ever day for the rest of our lives.I would really like to try one thing different ever day for the rest of my life.

 Do you ever go in to the store looking for something to make for dinner and you walk up and down the isles and your hungry and tired nothing seems to jump out at you. It is like those same foods you have been eating are programmed in your head and none of them seem to sound good. If you tried different recipes all the time you would have many other options to think about when you went to the store. I almost feel like Solomon walking up and down the aisles in the store thinking " There is nothing new under the sun". I am going to broaden my horizons.

No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him.
1 Corinthians 2:9
