Walk as children of light (for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true), and try to discern what is pleasing to the Lord. (Ephesians 5:8-10 ESV)brbrThese Bible verses are from the day 1 topic study on dating and relationships. When I watch tv, I get the impression that sex is something that is a social norm for couples to do outside of marriage. brbrCouples living together seems like the norm but I know different. It is only to be done in the context of marriage. brbrI really wish I had been taught these things growing up. My would be a lot different. But my parents, in particular, my mom cant teach me something she hasnt done herself. brbrI go every year to my mothers church for Mothers Day. Last year, a guest speaker got up and started talking about how things were done when she was a child. (This woman had to be in her 70s.) she mentioned how women didnt have children without husbands. Then she apologized for comment and couldnt understand why as sex outside of marriage is a sin and we were in a church. Not understanding why anyone would see the need to apologize for a comment about sin in a church but it happened. brbrI guess that is why my mom and I attend different churches. /p

Purple Sweet Potatoes

I already tried making mashed potatoes. Mashed potatoes are not my favorite and the beautiful purple color of these potatoes havent changed my opinion. I still dont like mashed potatoes. brbrI didnt like the way the potatoes were packed. And some of the potatoes were broken a bit but thats what I get for $22 for 12 pounds. I would have preferred them to be packed in a sturdier box. brbrThe potatoes are a lot smaller than I expected. When I did additional research online, I found that the purple sweet potato ranges in size from fingerling to about 1 pound. Anything larger than 1 pound will be very fibrous. Im not fond of stringy potatoes. brbrIm still absolutely adoring the color and cant wait yo make a cheesecake or sweet potato pie with these little darling purple spuds. Im really enjoying cooking. /p

Dreams

It was weird. We were in my aunts (her mothers condo). Now, my aunt doesnt own a condo. My cousin was still sick and laying in a bed. She woke up and she asked Where am I? and I responded We are in your moms condo. Then I told her had been sick for the last three years and she asked me Where is Mama? Mama is what she called our grandmother. I told her grandma had died in 2005 and said Dont you remember? You helped take care of her. Then my cousin got out of the bed and walked out of the room. brbrToday was her memorial service. Im not sure why I had this dream but I did. I dont recall ever dreaming about my cousin. brbrI also had a dream about a guy I took an interest in a few years ago. It also took place in my aunts condo. I cant remember if it was before or after the dream with my cousin. Anyways, it was a pleasant encounter with him. We took a tour of the city and had a good time. brbrI miss his friendship. I havent spoken to him in over two years. brbrI just wanted to get this off my mind. /p
