IKE

HURRICANE IKE roared through Ohio last Sunday evening causing many of us great pain and suffering, damage to trees and property, but for most just a huge inconvenience.

Well this is humbling.....I will no longer complain about being without power for a week with cool breezes and plenty of sunshine. I KNOW many had severe damage here......but I also KNOW we are richly blessed.

Please take a moment to look at these photos and say a brief prayer of thanks for all you may have right now and be thankful you are not in this.......I really wish I never complained, thanks be to God.

I received these in my email and they are so powerful!

I know exactly what you mean. For us Ohioans (which you now are, whether you think it or not), this was just a small taste of Ike. Something to talk about, then move on. Not so for these poor people.

I have been praying for them all week. It's almost too much to bear, looking at all that devastation.

BTW, Friday is looking good for me. I will call you when I wake up tomorrow.

Hey, I just posted my white chicken chili recipe on my blog, so you can print it from there, or maybe Kipper can print it out at work.

Enjoy! See you Friday. Becky and Summer are coming, too. I am NOT sharing my sweet potato pancakes this time. No, I am not.
