And They Lived Happily Ever After.....
1st Corinthians 13: 4-7
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Ahh...it’s February and love is in the air! Everyone loves a good romance that ends with and they lived happily ever after. That’s where most books end. But in real life that’s just where the fun begins.
After the whirlwind engagement, the beautiful wedding, and the romantic honeymoon, it’s time to settle down and live your life together with the man or woman of your dreams. And real life can be hard on a marriage but it doesn’t have to be.
The above verses are certainly some of the most well-known verses in the Bible and are used at countless weddings every year, but I wonder how many of us actually live it on a daily basis. I have no doubt if all of us followed the above suggestions, the divorce rate in this country would take a drastic nosedive.
Just like the good china, it’s so much easier to save our good behavior for company. I say use the good china now as well as treating your spouse and the others in your household with the kind of love described above.
I pray for love and laughter in your household for the coming year.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

Looking Out the Window: Memories on the Heart

Several weeks ago my husband, Rick, and I ate at a restaurant we frequent fairly regularly. The cute, young waitress who usually waits on us took our orders for burgers and fries. I’ll call her Mandy. As usual Mandy’s smile and bubbly personality brightened our day. We giggled and confessed to her that we shouldn’t eat the fries, but we were going to do it just this once. She joked. “Okay, you’re being bad today.” Not long after we got our food a couple came in and sat in the booth behind us. Mandy walked up to the table with her big grin. “Hi, how are you?” she asked. The man, who had salt and pepper colored hair and a pudgy face, spoke in a harsh tone, “I want the steak.” “Sure, which one would you like?” Mandy asked. “I don’t want you to put it in the microwave. That will make it tough. Do you understand?” Mandy’s lips turned down. “Yes sir, which one do you want to order?” “I want it medium rare. I don’t want blood oozing out of it. I want it cooked right.” “Yes sir, which steak di...

Looking out the Window: Carol Wilson James Talks about Her New Christmas Book, Christmas Lights and Moonlit Nights. Tells Us How to Make A Travelling Grilled Cheese Sandwich

A Warm Welcome to Carol Wilson James Hi Carol, I can't wait to hear about your new book and the sandwiches. Thanks for sharing with us. To receive a FREE short story sign up for Carol's newsletter The Traveling Grilled Cheese Because my dad was a career military officer, the longest we ever lived in one place was three years. And when the Air Force said “Move,” we moved. Sixty years ago, there weren’t fast food restaurants or grocery stores open twenty-four hours a day. So my mom had to figure out how to feed the family when nothing was open and she had no stove. Thus, she made "Ironed Grilled Cheese Sandwiches.” (To this day, my brother chooses these over a standard grilled cheese.) Ingredients Bread, cheese, butter, aluminum foil, and your iron. Heat your iron. Rub one side of a piece of foil with butter. Fold it in half, buttered sides together. Make a cheese sandwich. Insert your sandwich between the buttered sides of the foil (like a taco)...
