Sunday, April 3, 2011. Whitney GRE Math Section. As you may have noticed its been pretty quiet over here at Embracing Life Unexpected. "Why's that? You might ask.well, its because I've been busy living life. How wonderful is that? And the ever present "ways to think up examples on the spot for the issue writing section using all the books I read freshmen year of high school (aka The Scarlet Letter. And The Great Gatsby).".

Thursday, March 22, 2012. DC Highlights (or "I don't do dull"). Dull is boring. And with such a belief constantly before me I have spent the last months immersed in the crazy world called "Our Nation's Capitol.". Clearly, its been so insanely busy that I haven't blogged. Whoops. To make up for the lack I have put together my "Top 10 DC Moments" from the past ten months. In no particular order:. Being accepted to the "Behind the Scenes at the London 2012 Olympic Games" course! Looking for Jane Fonda's sca...

Friday, May 7, 2010. Consider all things rubbish". If you're considering something trash, it has to be compared to something else. The verse is found in Philippians and in context reads:. Sowith a dumpster full of my rubbish, I pray that Jesus is, through any and all circumstances becoming my greatest treasure. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I love my family, everything about Wisconsin (doncha know! View my complete profile. Confessions of a Pioneer Woman Ree Drummond. Skinnytaste Dinner Plan (Week 53).

Little Bit in London: Summer quiche and pie crust
http://littlebitinlondon.blogspot.com/2010/07/summer-quiche-and-pie-crust.html
Little Bit in London. Meshing three cultures through food, traditions and thoughts. Summer quiche and pie crust. Another great thing about quiche is I have the chance to make pie crust, one of my most favorite things to make. I know that many people have trouble with shortcrust dough as it is persnickety and often fickle in temperament. Of cold water. When the dough forms a ball, sprinkle flour on a counter top or board and on the dough ball as well to begin rolling the pie crust. Then I pressed the doug...

Embracing Life Unexpected: Making Space for the Creative
http://calamityjane-wra.blogspot.com/2011/07/making-space-for-creative.html
Sunday, July 17, 2011. Making Space for the Creative. I knit. Go ahead and laugh. I know, people think that's funny for some reason. Maybe its because they have some picture in their mind of what a home knit item looks and feels like. I'm pretty sure what I knit would blow that image from your mind forever, but this isnt a blog post defending my knitting addiction, its a post that came to life from knitting in public. Undeterred, I knitted. Its probably been years (painting your kitchen doesnt count).

Little Bit in London: January 2011
http://littlebitinlondon.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Little Bit in London. Meshing three cultures through food, traditions and thoughts. Potato pizza is carb. Heaven, something I crave in the colder months. The inspiration for this pizza came from a London pizza place in Covent. That trial took about 6 months, but still, it's the effort that counts! As it was a weeknight when I made the pizza, I was in a rush to cook and eat my carbohydrate-laden dinner after. Just wait until you hear about eating Penguins! And olive oil and toss them around until coated.

Little Bit in London. Meshing three cultures through food, traditions and thoughts. Are you having a barbecue this weekend? It's a long weekend for the US and UK and a perfect time to get the old grill out. Well, not if the rain gods here have their way, so I'll just pretend and make summer-y foods, like hummus. Yes, enter the return of the food processor. I think most people know and have eaten hummus. Here's what you will need: lemon. tahini. The juice of half a lemon, and a tablespoon of salt. Grind e...

Thursday, November 19, 2009. Lessons in Faithfulness from a Chair. Lessons about Gods character come in the oddest forms. Surely there are times of blatant evidence of God's provision for our needs, but what about for our wants? It was a roommates that had long moved out and they were trying to get rid of it.did I want it? Tuesday, November 17, 2009. Easy Silence that You Make for Me. I'm reminded that God cares for the city, and simply put, because of that I must care too. Yes) Am I afraid I'll fail?
