To market, to market, to buy a fat pig,Home again, home again, jiggety-jig.
Not
counting my 2 early summer glorious trips to North Carolina and 10 days in Ukraine, I have
trekked with hubby through 11 states since July 28. The latest trek was 2,468.7
miles. So…. home felt good. But…..the trip was also good----did I mention not
one single bad meal along the way! From fancy to hearty. Even the Wisconsin cheddar cheese curds and Beechwood
Cheese Co.’s Moraine Muenster on wonderful crispy crackers hit the spot for our
“car” lunch. Of course we topped off all that salty with a little chocolate cheese
fudge.
There is nothing better for a person than that he should eat and drink and find enjoyment in his toil (Ecclesiastes 2:24)
Work became
toil, and life offered drudgery and frustration after the fall, but to those
who please God, He has given wisdom and knowledge and joy (2:26). for God’s
glory brings joyful satisfaction and fulfillment.
In my rationalization, those verses
in Ecclesiastes came to mind. But God……reminded me that indeed He does provide
good things for us to enjoy. I not only had gastronomic feasts on this trip, I
had visual feast from God’s creation as well.
Now I have the “fat pig” syndrome
of 5 extra pounds. (That would be on top of other recently acquired poundage.) So.......
now that I’m home again I’m going to have to dance a few jigs to slow down all
that “jiggety flesh” that was a result of a GREAT trip!
