Sorbet or Small Group?

Which do I want to focus on today, food or church...

Oh, neither, I suppose. But they're both worth a quick mention.

Overnight guests on Thursday brought cantaloupe, and it didn't all get eaten, so ... what do you do with leftover cut-up melon? Just Google it and see! And sure enough, out came a splendid little recipe for cantaloupe sorbet - just fruit, sugar (maybe just a bit too much.. the melon was plenty sweet), a little orange juice, some salt, puree, pour into bowls and freeze. Yummy! :) Warm, it sort of had the texture of a smoothie, without the yogurt, but when frozen was verrrry sorbet-like. Easy, too.

Morrocan carrot soup coming up this week. With cardamom, ginger and ground pistachios.. mmmm. And maybe eggplant lasagna!

Mass Saturday was back at St. Rose's, and better than last week. They keep playing music there that brings back "good" Evangelical memories. It's odd, but nice. This time "You Are My Hiding Place" was the offertory, which I used to sing as part of a "round" years ago. Lovely. The priest at St. Rose's just loves to sing - loudly, and he's got a good voice. He leaves his mic on all the time, and I heard him throwing in spontaneous harmony lines on the Acclamation songs. Yay! If he can do it.. then so can I!

Church once again at Calvary, better than last week. Again asked some questions - continues to look like a good place to join, will probably do something with the younger couple we know from Milwaukee over next weekend. Perhaps they will invite us to join their small group Bible study? That'd be nice.

Still no written offer letter from the KC company as of Saturday's mail. :( Maybe Monday...
