april happenings

by Kristin



This month, my garden really started to grow.  We grew enough salad greens to supply us for several meals...it actually tasted good!

Nathan also worked a bit more on my jewelry organizer.  It's still a bunch of wooden rods stuck together, but it's coming along.  Maybe he'll finish it one of these days.


Nathan came home one day all excited.  I was about to cook dinner, when he instead whisked me to the car and drove us to the Farmer's Market.  It was a fun surprise.  Unfortunately, the Hotdogger wasn't making corn dogs that night because there was a chance of rain. :(  Instead, we shared some Indian food while we discussed the theme of the date - my need for spiritual intimacy.


We talked a lot about the different ministries we are each involved in and how we can support one another.  We also discussed our goals for ministry together.  Someday we'd like to be premarital counselors and work in marriage ministry.  It's a nice goal.

When we left the Farmer's Market, we decided to be totally spontaneous and go to the Nugget supermarket for dessert.  Their desserts are so beautiful, and we've often drooled at the dessert counter, but we've never actually bought one. 

While there, we also mocked the few inferior desserts on display.  We've been really enjoying a blog called Cake Wrecks lately that features cakes that are either inappropriate, silly, or just plain stupid.  We took a few pictures of the "sillier" cakes and submitted them to Cake Wrecks...who knows, maybe we'll see them featured!

This is an upside-down heart turned bunny...I think they way overcharged for this one.

Check out the cupcake in the middle...the dolphin is jumping out of the sand!

This was the cake we ended up getting for ourselves.  According to Nathan, it weighed more than a squirrel (I'm not sure how he knows that).  It took us three days to eat, but it was sure delicious!
