Just a Preview



This won't be a real post, as I haven't even started on my homework and I'm supposed to go to bed in an hour, but I was reading The Book of Mormon and I came across my favourite scripture (or, at least, one of them) and thought I would post it here as a reminder to myself:


Ether 12:27
And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them.

Something we tend to forget -- that God gave us our weakness. After all, where would the challenge be if we were all perfect?

Oh, by the way, my pineapple upside down cake turned out pretty good, I think. I'm making a pineapple smoothie Friday in honour of the Psych premier!!! And then maybe I'll get on to real baking. I made cupcakes to-night, but that doesn't count as it was a cake mix, and, actually, my grandmother made them, I just frosted them (and decorated them to look like penguins!!!!!!!!).

I'll try to post a real post soon (probably Friday when I'm waiting anxiously for Psych, I might even change my background, as I'm rather sick of snow now).

Pineapple to you.

Don't worry so much about homework and the way your hair looks and whether Jane likes you or not -- there are only so many things that matter in this life ... and I'm pretty sure pineapple is one of them.

So people are watching Psych (We're trying to get caught up and are getting it via netflix) and I'm about to get started on it... *sigh* Sooooooo, Katie! I little bird told me you're maybe possibly hopfully going to EFY this year? In Logan? Did I hear right?

Love the penguin-decorated cupcakes! And I'm much too tired to write anything that's pertinent so GOOD-NIGHT!

Kendle: Yeah, I'm going to EFY!! SOOOO excited! We're making a whole party out of it! Ah ... procrastination. The ultimate love/hate relationship.

Ginny-Gin-Gin: Been there. AM there. Cheese is my relevance. Which made more sense in my head.
