Winter Storm + Chocolate + Milk = Hot Cocoa and Fun

It was a blustery night in February. Red noses and cold fingers from shoveling. A pot of warm milk, milk chocolate and a Chocolatiere....take a look at our photo story to see how our evening turned out.

I think we should say....Winter Storm + Chocolate + Milk = Hot Cocoa and Fun

Slow Coffee

I really do appreciate the slow things in life. I often feel that speed is mistaken for quality, when in fact slow sometimes can be best. Our Mr. Coffee coffee pot recently died. So while we patiently wait for our new Cuisinart Grind-and-Brew to be delivered from amazon.com, our household is exploring our "slower coffee" options. I enjoyed French Press coffee many days this week, until the glass cracked yesterday. 

But, I still have my stove top espresso pot. Thankfully I feel that this pot is indestructible. 

Ezra and I are enjoying slow coffee mornings. Ezra bounces away in his chair, eating his oatmeal and bananas and the coffee percolates on the stove. These mornings have been great times of slowing down and enjoying the simple pleasures of slow coffee and time with my babe.

Our Christmas Card...Merry Christmas!

"And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled 'till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn't come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more." - Dr. Seuss

We pray this Christmas season you reflect on God's gift of salvation, the real meaning of Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

Love,

Peter, Hana and Ezra
