Forgiveness
I have been trying to do some soul searching today and found these quotes and wanted to share them.
The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.-- Mahatma Gandhi
Anger makes you smaller, while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you were. --Cherie Carter-Scott
Many people are afraid to forgive because they feel they must remember the wrong or they will not learn from it. The opposite is true. Through forgiveness, the wrong is released from its emotional stranglehold on us so that we can learn from it. Through the power and intelligence of the heart, the release of forgiveness brings expanded intelligence to work with the situation more effectively. -- David McArthur & Bruce McArthur
Forgiveness is freeing up and putting to better use the energy once consumed by holding grudges, harboring resentments, and nursing unhealed wounds. It is rediscovering the strengths we always had and relocating our limitless capacity to understand and accept other people and ourselves.----Sidney and Suzanne Simon
Sincere forgiveness isn't colored with expectations that the other person apologize or change. Don't worry whether or not they finally understand you. Love them and release them. Life feeds back truth to people in its own way and time—just like it does for you and me. --Sara Paddison

Construction Hell
Well the addition has begun and is delayed already because of rain. Makes for a very cranky husband. He started brewing beer instead for our wedding reception picnic. I have been slacking off on cooking and hope to get back into it over this weekend. I want to make somemore seiten so I can make mock chicken salad again as it is sooooo yummy. Need to try to figure how to post pictures from my new phone--enV Touch. All for now--Tracie

June already?!!!

Wow I can't believe summer is here. Been really busy the past few weeks. Spent

Memorial weekend at Drummond Island.

Had a party at the Witt's. I made BBQ Seiten and a great salad. Spinach, artichoke
hearts, vadalia onions, sundried tomatos, and pinenuts. Dressing was balsalmic vinegar, some of the marinade from the artichokes, and olive oil.
GR Festival is this weekend.. Can't wait.
