I'm really enjoying crocheting and knitting. It makes a nice break from school and other things. :-)<br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2387399499311479380-7285331854561701069?l=christinaspostings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Christinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09245163970302875408noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2387399499311479380.post-31683019414292032462009-11-11T14:42:00.000-08:002009-11-11T14:43:13.009-08:00New LayoutI had fun messing around with a new layout for my blog. I don't know if I'm completely happy with it yet, but I decided to leave it for now and get on to working on other things.<br><ul><li>assignment due tomorrow that I've been putting off that I should really work on</li> <li>put housing info into a spreadsheet so we can look at pros and cons easily</li><li>laundry</li><li>pack some stuff to move tomorrow</li><li>read an article or two for school</li><li>finish sewing up the seams on the baby booties I knit<br> </li></ul>Why is it so easy to procrastinate on things that are "less fun" and busy myself with things that I enjoy more? Someone once told me that when making a to-do list you should put the most difficult tasks at the beginning and then force yourself to work through the list in order. Maybe I should try that. No more blogging until I get my list above completed.<br clear="all"> <br>-- <br>"Show me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy truth and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day" (Psalm 25:4-5). ♫<br> <div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2387399499311479380-3168301941429203246?l=christinaspostings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Christinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09245163970302875408noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2387399499311479380.post-13602147983690420352009-11-10T16:14:00.000-08:002009-11-10T16:46:37.460-08:00Something NewA blog...what will I use it for? I decided to create it for the purpose of:<br /><ul><li>staying connected with friends and family</li><li>a place to be inspired to write creatively</li><li>sharing current life happenings</li><li>sharing yummy recipes</li><li>sharing encouragement from Scripture</li><li>sharing pictures</li></ul>In a way I see this as my online scrapbook/live journal to share my life with those who are interested. I hope to be an encouragement to others and to inspire creativity and a heart that seeks to honor the Lord.<br /><br />So for my first post, I'll share a recipe that I made up when I really wanted chicken noodle soup and didn't have any.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Christina's Chicken Noodle Soup</span><br />Boil 1 chicken breast in 3-4 cups of water<br />Cut chicken breast into bite size chunks<br />Add 3 carrots sliced in 1/4" rounds<br />Add spiral noodles<br />Add garlic powder to taste<br />Add 2-3 Tblsp Italian salad dressing<br /><br />Serve when carrots and noodles are tender.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2387399499311479380-1360214798369042035?l=christinaspostings.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Christinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09245163970302875408noreply@blogger.com1
