Goodbye January - The Draft

It is a beeeautiful sun shiney day - high near 70 degrees!! Already spent some time outside reading and journaling. :) January's draft looked a little something like this:

Selah - I've started reading through the Bible again using Professor Horner's reading plan. I love that it combines 10 different parts of scripture each day and it helps me to see cross references that I may not have otherwise picked up on.

Room by Room - I was able to go through all of our clothes. Some have already been given away and others are in piles just waiting for a day at the flea market.

In the Kitchen - Some of our favorite new recipes this month was lima bean hummus, spinach pesto pizza, awesome veggie burgers, lentil falafels, and peanut butter cookies. You can view lots of yummy recipes on my pinterest board by clicking the picture below. :)

Reading Room - I completed One Thousand Gifts, How to Win Friends & Influence People, No Excuses: The Power of Self-Discipline, and Christian Encounters - Saint Francis. I started a few others and hope to finish them this month.

Gentle Domesticity - I was able to crochet a super soft scarf for my dear friend Belinda, a mini camouflage blanket for Oscar the dog, and 5 crochet covered rocks for the Pay It Forward 2012 facebook challenge. I also practiced my knitting skills more while watching Dark Knight with my Tony.

Hospitality & Relationships - We were able to open our home and prepare meal for family and friends alike. One of our new favorite hospitable meals was a greek fiesta pile up - think olives, spinach, tomatoes, onions, basil, greek dressing, chick peas, all piled into a sun dried tomato tortilla. Mmmm!!
