“Do you see that yellow tree sticking up behind the other ones? I wonder why it’s so different from the rest?”
We all grow and mature and ripen at different speeds. We just do.
Diversity of opinion makes the world go ‘round. Although the social media wars would lead you to believe otherwise.
Sunday’s sermon on Romans 14 was timely. I recommend reading the entire chapter, but verse 13 is kind of the point:
Therefore let us not judge one another anymore, but rather determine this—not to put an obstacle or a stumbling block in a brother’s way. ~Romans 14:13
If it’s a matter of opinion, let there be different opinions.
What if you’re not as good at “research” as you think?
What if your BS detector, I mean discernment isn’t as finely tuned as you think?
Psst! Hey. I think your fly may be unzipped. Oh wait, I mean your pride and condescension are showing.
So anyway.
I’ve been spending less time monitoring social media and more time continuing to enjoy the fall foliage and to cook more squash.
Seriously, I feel like the Bubba Gump of squash these days.
There’s spaghetti squash.
And spaghetti squash cheesy bread.
There’s butternut squash puree.
And butternut squash crème brulee.
Don’t forget the pumpkin spice frozen custard. Per the ingredient list there is actual pumpkin in it.
There are umpteen more squash of various varieties on the counter. I foresee squash pudding, squash casserole, squash soup, roasted squash, maybe squash pie … someone posted a recipe for pumpkin dump cake, I bet we could sub another kind of squash … squash cookies and/or muffins maybe …
Hey speaking of pumpkins. Here’s a cool stencil you can use for pumpkin carving. Sound up when you play the video.
Along those same lines, these masks are fun. For anyone gift shopping for me, I like the script Ohio one best.
Until next time, you’ll find me either in the kitchen or somewhere staring at a tree.
