I have come to fall in love with teaching in Catholic schools. What are YOU in love with?...

"Nothing is more practical than finding God, that is, than falling in love in a quite absolute, final way. What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination, will affect everything. It will decide what will get you out of bed in the morning, what you will do with your evenings, how you will spend your weekends, what you read, who you know, what breaks your heart, and what amazes you with joy and gratitude. Fall in love, stay in love, and it will decide everything." - Pedro Arrupe

Flavor for the holidays

Peppermint - what a wonderful flavor. So Christmas-y and winter-y. It makes me think of hot chocolate, fire places, and snow...

It's so versatile and delicious (and seasonal) -->

a little added flavor to morning coffee...

a little twist on the traditional pretzel slims...

peppermint bark...

peppermint ice cream...

"brain food" for the kiddos...

Mmm...mmm...mmm...

There are reasons I don't usually keep these kinds of sweets in my apartment - It's because it's really hard to exercise self-control when these treats are so darn good...

What's your favorite holiday flavor?
