Food, Family, and Fun

These four "F"s go so well together. Don´t they? I think many of you actually have used them in many of your titles. It´s just so alliterated.


Well, I did not get to blog about Making my Home Sing Monday as planned due to trying to make my home sing with company. We enjoyed every minute!

Last night, our guests, Matt and Kathy bought all the fixings for a wonderful Spanish supper! ( They are, btw, English folk living in Germany)

Requirements for a good Spanish Supper:

Good bread

Good ham

Good sausages

Good cheese

Great olives

Matt and Kathy bought good Asturian Spanish products that we don´t normally get to buy. It was such a treat! These cheeses were "grown" right in our area. It´s so fun to try new cheeses! I think I could be a connoisseur of cheeses and olives! God sure did prepare me for Spain.

Here´s Matt and Kathy on our city´s beach.

Friday we went to the Mountains not far from our home.

What you don´t see is the huge snowy mountain behind the mountains in the forground. They were so impressive and totally covered in snow!

Our boys on top of the world!

And of course more food! This was a chilly picnic on top of the mountain look-out. We had "Empanadas" a typical Spanish meat pie.

Living proof that something beautiful can grow on "stoney ground".

And of course more food! This is our church fellowship time after our Sunday evening Singspiration.
