Dang it--my pie pans are triangular. Better yet, though, butter tarts! Those I can do round.

That's a really interesting point! I think with the current online dating culture, we don't actually. Most people under 40 I know, didn't know each other well--online dating or blind dates.

I was in Kroger Valentine's morning, and an employee was removing the bouquets--BEFORE 9AM! And you're right! I hadn't even noticed the sales were practically non-existent. $2 is not a sale... or maybe I'm cheap. Either way, I'm happy to not spend $15 when I can make something better at home...

I've met SO many young men and women recently who are excited about reading the Bible and talking about Jesus. This is such a major shift I've noticed from even just 3 years ago. It's exciting and so different from the Christian community I grew up in. Have any of you noticed this in your...

What colour woodstain are you using on your cabinets? We'd love to see them!

I am doing a Bible study about prayer with a group. Do you have any suggestions for study guides or books?

I definitely believe it can work for some people. I have a few siblings and friends that did long-distance (across different countries) that made it work and are now married. Personally, I can't see myself doing that, and I love seeing it work well for others!

What are your favourite books with Christian themes?

Thank you for sharing this, Maggy3. This reminds me of something I heard on a podcast this last week: when I'm struggling through my wilderness feeling lost and alone, meeting other people in their own wildernesses can comfort me to not feel so lonely--and together we can create a sort of oasis...

This reminds me of a guy I met at work last month. It sounded like he was hopping between two other languages and English when speaking with his friends, so I asked how many languages he spoke. He said 5 (cool!) and asked me how many I speak. I only speak English, and he responded, "Oh, so you...

When someone is genuinely kind and gentle. Suze said it best--that you can see it in their eyes. Also who is giving out pie recipes? I love lemon meringue pie, but I haven't looked for recipes yet. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Dang it... I was getting invested in this!

I'm similar to most of you--single and not actively searching. I like how seoulsearch said that no matter how it turns out, God is still the God of hope. And Lynx saying not having energy specifically for searching--definitely there, too! Fourteen nieces and nephews take up enough time already...
