    :heart: last night, i cooked a wonderful dinner that "soupnatzi" posted in the recipe thread. ~giant stuffed shell noodles:bigsmile:

    I need to go and find that recipe. I copied the orange poppyseed cake one. I really want to make it but forgot to buy poppyseeds when I went shopping yesterday.

    I found the recipe. Those look yummy! I love stuffed shells but I've never done them with spinach. I can't wait to try them.

    Robin, I hope you and hubby have a wonderful time! As much as we love our kids it's nice to get away and have some couple time!

    Today I'm grateful for
    Homemade salsa, I just put some with lettuce for a nice salad.

    My husband because he is not a picky eater

    Free phone minutes so I can call my mom and anyone else I want!

    It was a beautiful snowy day today and I took a wonderful three hour walk.

    I am grateful today for:

    1. The way a snowflake finds its way to earth. Fighting gravity, it slides, glides, swirls in endless circles, floats up on invisible cushions of air. Tiny, temporary, beautiful, magical things.
    2. Living close enough to walk to wide open spaces, and still close enough to walk to all the necessary places of modern life.
    3. The things I cannot see. I remembered a Bible verse today on my walk (I'm not much of a church-person) "Be still, and know that I am God."

    You are all a good influence on me. Thank you. :flowerforyou:

    I am grateful for my family (even my frustrating 15 year-old). :grumble:
    I am grateful for my loving old dog who snuggles with me and makes me feel happy when I am grumpy. :smile:
    I am grateful for the mountains and beautiful hiking trails where I live. :happy:
    I am grateful for the sore calves I have today from hiking one of those beautiful trails yesterday. :laugh:
    I am grateful that my brother and I get along well and don't have spats.

    Everyone have a lovely evening!

    Hi FletcherChic! You are our starter today! Robin is on a mini vacation and while I thought about bringing this up earlier I didn't so thanks to you for getting us going!

    Today I am grateful that
    My husband is not a picky eater. We just had tortellini (spinach and ricotta) with a pumpkin red pepper sauce. And a salad. So Yummy!

    The VA health system. DH gets most of his medical care through there.

    People that care. DH received a box of cigars in the mail today and we have no idea who the person is that sent them. They came with a nice note thanking him for his service. It brought DH some happiness while we are walking through a dark time.

    Are you a writer? Your snowflake description is beautiful. I love to watch it snow, it is so peaceful and calming. Truely a be still moment. His creation is awesome!

    Robin, it sounds like you had a wonderful time! I am so happy for you! I've been married 15 years and I'm still totally in love with my husband. It's nice to hear that other people are too because to many times we only hear the bad. Thanks for encouraging me!

    i agree w/ everthing u said kelly.:wink: loves like u and i have in our lives are too rare.:smooched:
    i pray our examples will help others see what thay can/should have. :blushing:
    ~especially my children.:happy: :smile:

    :heart: before dinner last night, my hubby was looking at me and asked for the camera (which is almost always in my purse). he took a pic of me.
    i put it in my profile ~as main picture, just now.
    when he looks at me through his loving eyes, i feel so much more beautiful then the lady i see in the mirror, or in this case, the picture! (though that person has looked a lot more used and abused too!)
