Okay y'all. If you live in the area & you want to check out Amelia's (especially on Tuesday, Friday or Saturday nights), you can go to valpak.com or hokiecash.com for coupons. At valpak.com, you have to put in the zip or city/state and then go to Dining, then to Amelia's. At Hokiecash, you go to Restaurants or Pizza & Subs, & then click on Amelia's. Hope to see you there! (Incidentally, if you didn't already know about these websites, & you live in the area, there are quite a few coupons you might want to check out. Though why you'd go somewhere other than Amelia's, I won't understand)
Because of my picture, I temporarily (for about 8 hours today) had "a twinkle in my eye & a smirk on my face" over there <------ next to my picture. Since I was asked (& I'll let the asker remain anonymous for now, at least until she comes out with any other wisecracks) if there was a reason for the twinkle & smirk (i.e., a baby on the way: "Should I be making you another blanket??" Ha!), I will be removing the twinkle & smirk comment. I will remove the actual twinkle & smirk (in other words, the picture) when I have another good one with which to replace it. The twinkle is really only on my glasses, and not actually in my eye, so the saying doesn't quite fit anyway. Yet another example of a silly idea gone bad.
Did anyone else notice the VT colors that inadvertently appeared on the lists to the left?
Paula is going to be conducting a survey about Christians and Depression. She would like to get as many people possible taking the survey, so if you're interested, go to her post here, where she describes her survey more and you can get her email address. Unless I'm wrong, I don't think she wants to only survey people who have suffered from depression, and she said the survey will be conducted online confidentially.
"Not everything that happens to us is for us." Bill pointed this out on his blog the other day. I love that! In fact, it makes me feel good to think about that. It helps my selfish side learn to think about why things might be happening that are not necessarily for me, but through me, for someone else.
It's one of the reasons I'm so excited about working for Amelia's. I mean, I'm not being totally selfless, as I do expect to make some money while I'm at it. But I did think about working there when I heard it was new and slow, and thinking I could help them out. And now it's my mission!
What ways have you found yourself being used by God in order to help someone else?

5 snappy comebacks:
does amelia's serve a pesto dish?
and if so, is it the basil green pesto? and is there a good amount of the pesto sauce or do they skimp?
also, do they serve carbonara (pancetta and egg)?
did you know or did they teach you to say "bruschetta" with a hard 'k' sound instead of "brushetta"? That really annoys me.
Yes, Amelia's serves a pesto dish, & it's basil green pesto, and I don't think they skimp. We serve carbonara; however, I don't know about the egg. I thought carbonara was a creamy sauce with bacon & other ingredients. We tend to say things how people around here would say them. I'm not positive, but I think Buddy (my boss) would say "brushetta," but the old place he & I used to work had an Italian family running it & they pronounced it either way, pretty much to cater to the hillbillies around here. I like "bruschetta" with a k sound. It's fun & authentic sounding.
the "k" sound is correct according to current pronunciation in Italy.
true carbonara is made with uncooked egg, that's what makes it creamy,
Uncooked egg?? Can we even cook that way in the US?
