39. i’m a mediocre chef, but i am the queen of crock-pot cooking.
38. i call my guardian angel by name.
37. i named my angel “barnarbas” after saint barnabas, whose name means “son of encouragement,” because i typically need all of the encouragement i can get.
36. i speak to think. yes, i am aware that this order is backwards.
35. i also tend to speak in thoughts. if you aren’t a mind reader, you might get lost in the translation.
34. i feel masculine and ornery whenever i wear jeans.
33. i rarely wear jeans.
32. i once caved in to road rage when a kid cut me off in traffic.
31. i followed the punk home and got the info off his mom’s car. i took it to the police and filed an official report.
30. i’m the sort who can get lost in a mall parking lot without detailed directions.
29. but, if i’ve driven to a destination once, i won’t ever forget how to get there.
28. i think people who ride motorcycles without helmets are stupid and selfish.
27. my brother died because he wasn’t wearing a helmet.

21. i’ve been living on borrowed time since october 19th 1989.
20. i’m glad.
mediocre chef is still 100 steps higher than me. My wife told me that next I even thought about what to make it better be reservations!
hey, crock-pot queen, wanna share some recipes sometime?
Hey! My guardian angel is named Benjamin, and I call him by name. I was reading Sancta Sanctis--and she was talking about her angel, Anthony. I wondered how she knew his name, and then I thought, "Well, I guess I could just ASK!" So I did. And ever so clearly the name Benjamin appeared in my head.
I need crock pot recipes! Especially ones that selective eaters will, uh, at least try.
I just want to say...Thank Goodness that you survived and are here to love and encourage those around you :o)
God is so Good!
I love using the crock pot...please share your recipes!
