Brownies are baking in the oven.
Baby potatoes are ready to be made into a roasted and seasoned side dish.
Lettuce is chilling for a salad.
Protein?
Mark & Amy are bringing over some steak and we shall stoke up the smoker!
Our family is gathering tonight for a Superbowl party and although football is the excuse, and food is part of the fun, just being together is the reason we are celebrating!
Also, we are following the Tankard final this afternoon:  Adam Casey is facing Steven Laycock and it looks like Team Casey will be representing Saskatchewan in the Canadian Men's Curling Champion, the Brier.  As I type, the score is 9-3 for Casey in the 8th end.  There is the potential for another 2 ends to be played, but that lead is pretty significant and I would call that they will shake hands after this end.
It was a great morning at HHM Regina!  The usual:  Nick did the opening, with a minute's notice.  He shared on the eternal Word of God, thoughts on Psalm 119.  Ed led worship and the songs were full of praise, energy and yet a spirit of dependence on our great God.  The little ones marched out as we sang "We are marching in the light of God..."
Walter led the sharing time, starting with our announcement to be taking on NCEM directorship.  We felt supported.  And Thomas, our faithful van driver, shared how at our grand opening of the HH ministry centre, we were marveling at how far God had taken us - just imagine where He is taking us in the future!  (Later, Thomas told me how proud he is of Walter and I and how exciting it is that Healing Hearts is being blessed to help and serve others.)
Bob preached a powerful sermon on I John 4 on testing the spirits.  In our ministry context, there are plenty of opportunities to experience spirits that do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh and it was a very practical and applicable message.
We met after service for our staff meeting.  It was so good to share and pray for one another.  Again, I felt so supported as we move forward into this new venture.  Our team all have needs and we also prayed for them.  Team is good!
Well, that's our news.  I gotta go...the steaks are almost ready!
