This weekend, I
...cheered on Aggie Women's Soccer in their game against IU, whoop for Aggie Sports, we won :)
...made chicken enchiladas with green salsa, queso fresco and Mexican sour cream. yes.
...AND made more salsa and canned it, give me an apron and call me, "domestic."
...read and responded to articles about the culture of corruption in the post-colonial world
...thought about the documentary and artistic nature of photography, and got to call that work :)
---------side note: this is inspired by Mollifer, who is thankful for a God who "gives her joyful children's books to read and lets her call that 'work.'" Similarly inspiring me to be thankful :)
...graded ...accompanied that with a Shiner ;)
...went to Oliver Winery to a wine-tasting/picnicking celebration of the engagements of me to Lawster and another friend in grad/faculty minstry to her fiance, it was such a sweet time, it was such a blessing
...debated the merits of technology with Lawster
...discussed the Reformed tradition with my roomz, good chat, and we used the phrase "frozen chosen," but what do you call the Reformies in the south??? :)
...built up the courage to bike to church with the help of the roomz, she's such a good rider, and yet so good at helping me "own my biking," I never once felt like a silly beginner, it was fantastic!
...got a message from Lawry sharing how proud he was of me for having the courage to ride across town, this made me smile and encouraged me to feel confident on my bike
No pictures this time around, but it was a memorable weekend all the same, what did you do?
Riding my bike to the local coffeeshop,
MJ

this all sounds delightful. whoop for cheering on undergrad institutions at graduate type places. da bears are playing le frogs this week, and i'm debating about going. unfortunately, david doesn't get a free ticket like me. i just want the bears know that they are loved.
other things: i want your recipes. fresco queso? yummzers.
props on the biking. and friends and wine tasting! yay!
love you.
sad about the non-free ticketing... spouses should have a discounted rate, you should wear green and gold to your lecture this week though :)
um, totes, maybe i'll blog the recipe sometime this week... SO easy.
yay again for all of those things!
love you too, good friend :)
