My favorite blog post this week:
No blog reading last week


Blog Hopping (a new discovered blog you would like to share with the readers):
I'm actually going to send you to one of my blog readers new blog, her name is Jenna and she's a fellow military wife and she's embarked on a new adventure that could really use our support.
On June 1st I started running 1,004 miles to be completed by June 1 of next year. I have a blog that keeps track of my progress and also has a place where people can donate money to Peak 4 Poverty. It's a wonderful non-profit that helps AIDS orphans in Tanzania.
Go on over and check out her new blog.

Lesson learned the past few days:

Align CenterThat if you keep yourself busy, time flies and before you know it, something you've been really looking forward to is upon you.


On my mind:
My family visiting and how much we're going to have.


Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:
"I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear him who, after the killing of the body, has power to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him."
Luke 12:4-5

Hi! I HAVE to tell you! yesterday I made for dinner your blt salad pasta and it was a BIG success. Thank you for the idea and for the recipe, Im a great fan of your blogs. I tried to make my own ranch dressing because here in Spain it was a bit tricky to find it but when shopping the ingredients (do you know how many tons of ranch dressing recipes are in the web? pleeeeeease would you post yours? blink blink) I finally decided to use a bottle of caesar parmesan dressing. My husband was sooooooo crazy for the salad and he ate his second plate without any dressing, so tasty he said! So thank you for that successful and easy recipe!
