Butchering

Sooo..we went to butcher a cow yesterday. I’ve never assisted butchering anything larger than a racoon, and believe me, it’s a lot more backbreaking to do a cow than a racoon! The hide alone weighs over 50 lbs, and the guts weighed so much it was incredible.

We cut open several stomachs. One to get out [...]

How Do You Spell Baklava?

Baclava? Bakklava? I’m telling you, I got a lot of hits for those search terms at my old blog! I also got quite a few for gunshotwound (one word), which is GSW in abbreviation. And by the way, I made baklava today and it looks great! Smells great too. Taste? Well, I haven’t tasted it [...]

(Home) Sweeeeet! (Home)

I am happy to announce that the owner of this blog is now having to walk long distances to find family members - upstairs, or across the house, etc. In the bus where we’re been for 9.5 weeks, you don’t have to go looking for anyone. If you just talk a little louder than normal, [...]

Tengo Hambre

(The title of today’s post means “I’m hungry,” in Spanish. Literally “I have hunger.”
Today someone took us to a pancake breakfast at the place we’re staying at. Quite nice, and since I skipped the desserts after our concert last night I was HUNGRY! It helped me to pray better for people who are hungry. It’s [...]

You’ve come to the right place!

I have decided to make my old blog and my new blog (this one) one and the same. This isn’t much of a difference here except you’re going to get a lot more personal posts. Or at least I assume so.
Please bookmark this blog address as the new home of my old blog!
I’ll write more when I get the chance.
