What happens when you are a Pastor's Wife and Celiac? You live in a wheat-free fish bowl!

Welcome to my blog. If you are looking for NORMAL, you've come to the wrong place. Nothing about my life is normal. However, if you like things quirky and interesting...if you are a Pastor's Wife, Celiac, health food nut, Vintage collector, mother, Christ follower or thrift store hunter, I hope you enjoy my ramblings. I will admit, I am uncomfortable with anything focused on me, such as a blog, but my hope is that it will be helpful to you. FYI - I am a writer by nature, so I tend to get reflective and be transparent in these ramblings. I advise you to drop your expectations and preconceived notions about pastor's wives here before reading on. "Surrendering to God is the key that unlocks the door to the life you want. A bigger spiritual "to do" list or a calendar full of church activities will not change our lives. When we give ourselves to God - mind, body, soul and spirit - HE changes us." -Nicole Johnson "Fresh Brewed Life"

Vintage Finds for Fall!

OK, This is a great story. We are at a garage sale and I see these two old chairs, painted but the seat is all rustic. I look at the price tag and it says....FREE!!! I am figuring out how to talk my husband into these chairs...I know just what to do with them. We don't get them, but I keep talking while we look at more sales. Soon he is back in front of the house loading them in the back! Yipee! I can't wait to put a big pumpkin on them!
I love to find vintage Anchor Hocking/Fire King dishes. This cup and saucer are from 1952-1956
I love 1970ish Pyrex mixing bowls!


This is a page from a pamphlet published in 1968 for Teen girls by Carnation. .29 cents was all I paid...I have enjoyed reading these funny out of date excerpts to Emily, my almost teen. Times were so different!
