This Weeks Dinner

So, I get to plan dinner for the next week and a half because my parents are out of town. Its back to the old days of figuring out what ingredients I have, what produce needs to be used up, what new recipes I can cook, and what old recipes I can cook.

Here's the menu for the week:

Saturday: Tex Mex Beef Enchiladas with black beans and rice
Sunday: Dill Roasted Garlic Chicken with greens
Monday: Penne with Italian Sausage and veggies with a Romaine Salad
Tuesday: Chile Garlic Chicken Legs with an Asian Veggie Stir Fry
Wednesday: Asian Rotisserie Chicken Salad (using left-over roast chicken)
Thursday: Perogies and Cabbage Rolls (which are frozen from a previous batch of cabbage rolls)
Friday: I'm working this night, so left-overs

And there you have it. I'm hitting the grocery store to get the missing few ingredients.

The Weary World Rejoices

The candlelight flickers in my December-darkened living room. Jarred red pillar candles with warm light speckle my piano by number, along with the Christmas cards of cozy families that have begun to criss-cross my living room. Edmund's favourite Christmas album is playing, the one from Charlie Brown and his lovely Christmas special. There is a quiet ache filling this space, and my 8-year-old has said once again, "It doesn't feel like Christmas." And so it has begun. That ache really first began for me when my family of origin moved during fourth grade across the continent from Kelowna, BC (where we lived for a few short months with my grandparents and spent days filled with fun with cousins, and I slept in my auntie's old pink bedroom, sharing a bed with my oldest sister Christi) to a suburb of Detroit, Michigan. I remember that winter and Christmas feeling particularly cold and lonely, as I had spent the warm, bright summer months and early fall in what had alway...

Prayer Request

I have a prayer request. I've been having trouble with my heart for the last three months. The medication that I take every day hasn't been regulating my tachycardia problem well enough, and I have gone to the ER 3 times in the last 3 months. Twice they had to give me an IV of some medicine that stopped my heart and restarted it. Since then I found a cardiologist in Houston, who says I need to get a procedure done called an ablation. They go in through a vein with a wire and camera and sensors and travel to your heart and find out what area of your heart is causing the electrical glitch that causes the tachycardia episode. Then they zap that tissue that causes the problem. The procedure should totally cure the problem that I have been struggling with for 13 years. However, our insurance looks like they will only cover maybe 1500 of the 26000 cost, if any at all. Please pray that God would provide a way to pay for this procedure, as it isn't really an option to not have it ...
