who said vegetarianism wasn't cruel?

funny video

after you watch that, you should click on
the 'vegetable panic' video that's suggested.
it's pretty funny too. :)

an appalling contradiction

conservative evangelicals...have tended to downplay numerous
systemic problems associated with contemporary liberal capitalism.
these include persistent and sometimes devastating income
and wealth inequality both within and between nations, gross
concentrations of economic and political power both stemming from
and contributing to the exploitation of the poor but the rich...

the fact that most north american believers continue to be
"rich christians in an age [a world] of hunger" (sider, just generosity)
remains an appalling contradiction that followers of Christ Jesus
ought to address with utmost seriousness, however complex the problems.

silly glasses

last week me, my sisters, and my niece all had eye doctor

appointments and went to pick out new glasses.
i couldn't find any i liked more than the ones i have now,
but i had fun trying them on and so did Haley. :)

these are the ones she actually ended up getting.
so cute and pink :)

buttons!

DIY apron

so, here it is!
the present i made for carley on her birthday!
it's a homemade apron!
she loves to cook, so it's perfect.
honestly, my mom made a lot of it cause i would do parts
and make little mistakes and she'd take them out and do it herself.
i told her it didn't have to be perfect, but she wanted it to be. haha
but it really wasn't that hard.
i looked up some basic directions with a google search,
but pretty much just sketched out what was in my mind
and had my mom help me make it a reality!
it has a cute little pocket and a bow and everything! :)

okay
