I've been wanting to update more, but this semester is just really crazy. 2009 started off really rocky, but the only thing I have to say is God's grace is abundant!!
So much is happening, even just over the past week or so. I'm learning lessons and really living life. I even changed the name of the blog from "reflections" to "living in grace."
Can't write more right now since I'm a little behind on reading for my Neuroscience class (I know, yikes!) but wanted to leave you with one picture.
Since today is another chance at having new beginnings (Chinese New Year), I decided to start off my new year detoxifying mind, body, and soul. Well, part of the body detox is to stock up on nutrition this week and weed out sweets. I'm eating oatmeal and fruit for breakfast, a hearty split green pea stew for lunch, and steamed veggies and brown rice for dinner. As snacks I stocked my fridge with carrots and celery with hummus.
Well, the split green pea stew was interesting to make. At first, it looked delicious as I had added red potatoes, carrots, and other vegetables. However, the last step of the recipe was to blend soft tofu and spinach into a creamy concoction and stir it into the stew. To my dismay, it turned the stew almost a flourescent green color:
Luckily for me, it tastes sooo much better than it looks. Happy Lunar New Year!!!
