With inspiration from my dear sister-in-law, Rachel, I embark on this adventure - capturing an image every day for a year both to have for myself and to share with you. My hope is that through this effort, I will "keep peace in the noisy confusion of life" - taking time to notice the small things, celebrate the big things, and more fully appreciate the gift of each new day. Of course, I had every intention of beginning this on January 1st - but when that day came and went without a blog, Rachel assured me that this project can begin on any day. After a slow start, I really hope I can pull it off - and that you'll enjoy it!

Day 79 - March 28: Casserole

It never occurred to me that my kids would be picky eaters.  There were no food related negotiations during the family dinners I remember as a kid - you simply ate what was on your plate and moved on.  No discussion.  My offspring, however, have a different take on food.  There are things they like and therefore eat and things - many more things - they do not like and therefore do not eat.  Both of them have gotten a lot better (as they've grown and actually acquired appetites) but dinner can still be a challenge.  Imagine my delight, then, to hear my young son exclaim, "Yum!  Is that my favorite dinner in the oven?  The thing I could eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day forever and always be happy?!?" After that kind of reaction to the aroma in my kitchen, I may indeed begin serving it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
