What's Cookin?: Love Lost
http://whatscookinmia.blogspot.com/2011/08/love-lost.html
Sunday, August 28. I've been thinking about some of my most cherished films. They tell stories of love, and love lost. Never Let Me Go. In all of these, there is a profound grieving over what never was, or what could have been. Love is unexpected, and wildly unpredictable. It grows, shines, aches and sometimes.it is lost. Recommend these three movies. If you haven't seen them, move them to the top of your list. They're all brilliant. I couldnt find a theater with it in Miami). Follow me on Twitter.

What's Cookin?: Serving in Haiti
http://whatscookinmia.blogspot.com/2011/10/serving-in-haiti.html
Thursday, October 13. It's hard to believe that God does such amazing things in all our lives. Through hardship comes beauty. After sorrow comes joy. I've seen this come true in my own life, time and again. When I was in Honduras a few years ago, I remember the smiling faces of boisterous children in the orphanage where I served. They had walked through incredible suffering, but they were filled with joy! While I'm there, I will help teach some women in the village how to sew and make other goods and cra...

What's Cookin?: Indie/Vintage/Green/Stylish Love
http://whatscookinmia.blogspot.com/2011/04/indievintagegreenstylish-love.html
Monday, April 11. Not gonna lie - I love all things indie. Well, all the cute things, anyway. I thought I'd plug some cool indie corners of the world that I enjoy. This is legit. They are selling all sorts 0f handmade goodies. I'm not sure what I'll get, but I'm excited to shop and find that one perfect thing! They make these ultra cool water-drop-shaped glass earrings and necklaces, (I think they should make rings) and then donate most of the money to Water Aid. 3 Miss Eco Chic. Herself, Emily Anderson.

What's Cookin?: On Going Granola
http://whatscookinmia.blogspot.com/2011/03/on-going-granola.html
Friday, March 25. I think I've alluded to my hippie-dom in the past, but it is in full swing these days. Mostly, I think, because for the first time in about 21 years, I am not a student. I have time to read for fun. And explore who I want to be outside of academia. So, I choose to look into what is essentially a lost art - Home Ec. Well, I've made a few things - like this yarn wreath. Handmade is the way to go. I just believe that more and more with each project. Maybe I'll blog more about that later.

What's Cookin?: My favorite day of the week
http://whatscookinmia.blogspot.com/2010/09/my-favorite-day-of-week.html
Sunday, September 12. My favorite day of the week. I go to Vintage21 Church. At 6 pm, and before that. Sometimes I take a little nap in the late afternoon, and before that. I always work Sunday morning, with a 79-year-old woman, who sleeps a lot, and before that. The Sunday paper comes out, which means. I get more coupons! If only coupons worked on other things. Http:/ hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/2010/09/trouble-with-coupons.html. Did you like what I sent you? Im sooooooooo proud of YOU!

What's Cookin?: Back from Haiti
http://whatscookinmia.blogspot.com/2012/01/back-from-haiti.html
Monday, January 2. It's been two years since Haiti was devastated by the earthquake. Having already been the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere, the nation was catapulted into the spotlight and help came. The church that our team worked with spoke often of vision. Their vision for the nation of Haiti is very much like the vision that God gave Nehemiah. Long before the earthquake ever struck, they were called to "rebuild the walls.". The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me,. To comfort all who mourn;.

What's Cookin?: Wednesday Weigh-In
http://whatscookinmia.blogspot.com/2011/02/wednesday-weigh-in_16.html
Wednesday, February 16. I went to Florida for a few days to see family. Do you know where they wanted to go? I will tell you where. Golden Corral. Oh, infernal virus. It knocked off 5 pounds in two days. But when I could finally eat saltines on day 3, it decided to hoard every last calorie. So my total loss for Week 2 was a measly 3 pounds. I won't be bitter, though. I'm glad to have my life, and to not have had to report to the CDC. Plus, that brings my total weight loss so far to 10 pounds.

What's Cookin?: "Sick Days"
http://whatscookinmia.blogspot.com/2011/04/sick-days.html
Sunday, April 10. On Friday, I drove 480 miles to Jacksonville. On Saturday, I drove 480 miles back up to Wake Forest. That's 960 miles for all of you who lack basic addition skills. Of course on the way back on Saturday, I started to feel a nagging little 'ugh' in the back of my throat. That is always how really bad colds begin for me. I had white knuckles, but I wanted to get home and I had to be at work in 9 hours. So, just to run the tally for you:. 1000 miles in 36 hours. Not me. Not on sick days.

What's Cookin?: Just Say No...
http://whatscookinmia.blogspot.com/2011/04/just-say-no.html
Friday, April 15. You should know that I hate drugs. Really hate 'em. I don't even like to take over the counter medicine. It works out, then, that I am a bit of a hippie and love finding natural, homeopathic solutions to my health problems.which are never big problems. But now I have this unrelenting, overpowering, sleep-interrupting, mood-dampening cough that Just. Won't. Leave. Except that I haven't slept through the night in a week. So, now I'm desperate. Again, you should know that I hate drugs.
