2nd Annual Breakfast for Dinner - April 2nd!!

Back by popular demand, next week's dinner will be Breakfast for Dinner!!! So, sign up here or send me an email and I'll add your culinary selection to the blog. Don't be afraid to be creative. In that vein, I'm bringing cheese grits with a black bean sauce on the side. See you all next week - Phil and Martha's at 7pm-ish!

Hello Small Groupers!

Sorry we missed you guys the other night. We're in the waiting stage now. It could be anytime within the next three weeks. We can't commit to anything and only decide whether were going or not last minute. Being that Jessica is a "planner", this is just driving her crazy.

We wanted to share with you guys the blog that we've been writing for the last 8 months highlighting the pregnancy "process". Some of it is educational, some of it is irrational, and other parts are simply whimsical. If you're having a bad day, please check out the posting from March 23. It's sure to make you laugh.

Feel free to leave comments too. And check back often because you'll never know when the headline will say "It's a BOY!"

What's so good about Good Friday?


Oh, the Irony- the worst day in human history-Man destroys God- opens the door for God to renovate Man. Not by redeeming the Old Nature, but by enabling the New. In His great love, the Father chooses the suffering of Son, in order to deliver the creation from the stain of Sin. This Great Sacrifice clears the way for a new nature, the indwelling of the very Spirit of God, that gives the soul a perfect, sinless, nature; a nature that reflects and reveals the beauty and wonder of the Son Himself. Oh, it's Friday, but Sunday is coming!

Be thinking about Wed night 2 April- our next dinner meeting. phil

Now it gets interesting

Who is this Melchizedek? Thinking in terms of relationships- Jesus/Melchizedek (can we just call him Mel?), Jesus/Israel, Mel/Abraham, Jesus/Abraham, Mel/Priest, Jesus/High Priest, and of course, Jesus/you (me).

Use the who,what, when, how, why process. Use relationships. Use the issue of context.

See you all on Wed. phil

Cheese, please!

Patrick and I are hoping to make it tonight, but we'll definitely be late. We're going to a talk at 6pm and aren't sure how long it will last. Therefore, we'll bring dessert. We're thinking CHEESEcake!

Bring this too!

OK, here's the deal: in addition to the cheese dish you bring- bring also the best cheese trivia you can find!

Best Mac and Chesse ever

Martha and I will prepare the best Mac and Cheese you ever ate (now how can you live up to that?).

Wed night once again

Good start- lets get down to particulars. Theme? I'm inclined toward National Cheese Doodle Day. To celebrate, something with Cheese? I never seen food that could not be made better with cheese. How something cheese? The Power of Cheese? We love Wisconsin?
Looking forward to seeing you all, friends!phil
