Recipe

Recipe for a great evening:

0. Finding ourselves all at home - without having to go out for some worthy cause!

1. Hot alu-parathas (or is it paronthas?) With dahi! Punjabi cuisine (at least the dhaba variety) rules.

2. Baking chocolate cake with the kids (licking of the bowl is an 'of-course')

3. Text and phone-calls from the JSK team who are doing an amazing job with an HIV testing camp with two churches in Airoli - 80 plus people tested! Thats more than we did last year!

4. Sheba working on her cross-stich

5. A spirited Bible-quiz game with Asha coming trumps (handicaps given based on age)

6. Another spirited memory game using cards we made from photos of the family taken over the past years. Serving fresh chocolate cake muffins - on chocolate icecream!

7. Lots of great conversation - ranging from the silly to the enlightened (sometimes swinging wildly between the two).

8. Finding out the washing-machine is still working properly - only an indicator isn't

9. Praying together - a number of times over the evening - for friends in challenging situations - for Sheba's parents as they are on the train between Vizag and Delhi

10. About to go to bed - warm with the joy of being together

All experienced in the last 5 hours.

Its a very good life.

Totally grateful to God.

Onward into the next week!
