New Years Resolution
This summer, I started to read the Bible. I didn’t finish, but I read a lot of the Old Testement. This New Year, I am following Angie’s lead and I am reading the Bible chronilogically. It’s so cool! I had no idea that God used the symbol of a rainbow to symbolize the covenant He had with Noah.
I have just read a few days and The Book of Job has really caught my attention. I mean what an aspiring story of faith.
Besides the Bible, I am trying to cut back on coffee by drinking green and white tea. I can’t believe how delicious tea is. The first time I had tea, I was 23 years old and I was with my then boyfriend in Ireland. He took me to Ireland for my college graduation. We went to see his aunts and uncles and they served us bologna sandwiches with mayo and tea. I wasn’t sure what to do as I didn’t like bologna or tea. Yet, I wanted to be polite and I wanted them to like me. So I ate the bologna on white bread (not toasted) and mayo (not even mustard). It was disgusting. I tried to wash it down with tea and I was super grossed out.
But now I love tea…..or at least Lipton White Tea with Pomegranate & Blueberry (OMG so good). Grab a box at the store and enjoy it – it’s amazing!
Hugs,

Whoa. Bologna *and* mayo together?! I can’t believe you even got that down. Ick. You’re far kinder than I would have been. :)
And luckier too. You had a boyfriend that showed you the world. Mine had me pushing his pick-up truck on our first date after he ran out of gas. Nice.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

I have the perfect solution for you! Visit http://dailyaudiobible.com and learn about the community there. Brian Hardin reads through the Bible in one year and sometimes his wife, Jill, reads it if he is taking a break or is sick. His little girl, China, reads the Daily Audio Bible for Kids. All of the podcasts can be found on itunes. He is usually #1 under religion and spirituality although sometimes Joel Olsteen takes over the first spot. I love your blog. You’re a doll. Glad I met you on twitter!! http://twitter.com/carole_hicks
