This just about sums it up...

I need clarity and truth to be
And peace to make me whole
I want freedom to come and hate to be done
And love to guide my soul
I want love, yeah, I want love

Standing on the battle line
I fight for my mind aching to be free
This war that I face as I long to embrace
And be with my King

And this fire in my soul, desire to be whole
Is deep within my bones
And I long to be near as I cast away my fear
Running for your throne

I need clarity and truth to be
And peace to make me whole
I want freedom to come and hate to be done
And love to guide my soul

Yeah, I want love, I want loveI want love, I want love
Yeah, I wantI want
I want clarity and truth to be
And peace to make me whole
I want freedom to come and hate to be done
And love to guide my soul
Yeah, I want love, yeah, I want love
Yeah, I want love, yeah, I want love
Yeah, I want love, yeah, I want love
Yeah, I want love, yeah, I want love

I want
I don't know
I don't know

Hot Tea

is a new favorite drink of mine. i am just beginning to enjoy it:)


today is rainnnnnnnnyyyyyyyyyyy. i am sure that we need it. its one of those rainy days where you could stay in bed all afternoon and read, nap, read, nap, eat, read, nap, watch dvr, journal, journal, journal....



ya know, one of those...

however, that is not reality and one must go to work.





so in order to get myself going, and warm, i am currently drinking English Breakfast Black Tea.


English Breakfast tea is a black tea blend usually described as full-bodied, robust, and/or rich, and blended to go well with milk and sugar, in a style traditionally associated with a hearty English breakfast. It is the most common style of tea in Britain.
The black teas included in the blend vary, with Assam, Ceylon and Kenyan teas predominating, and Keemun included in more expensive blends. Common brands of English Breakfast tea (which do not always include the term itself in the branding) include Ty·phoo, PG Tips, Twinings, Tetley, Taylors of Harrogate, and Dilmah, as well as many own brands.


another one of my favorites is Earl Grey Tea
Earl Grey tea is a tea blend with a distinctive flavour and aroma derived from the addition of oil extracted from the rind of the bergamot orange, a fragrant citrus fruit.


i will have to say that i like this better than the breakfast tea. it is less bitter and has a tiny bit of sweet to it. i guess that is the hint of bergamont orange found in this tea.

well i will keep you posted on new favorite flavors. i want to try lady grey next.

stay dry!!

6 scoops of chocolate ice cream
6 chocolate cookies
DIRECTIONS: First, you must smash the Twinkies and chocolate cookies in a bowl. Next, scoop the ice cream into the bowl. Then, mix it all together. Voila!! The best thing about this recipe is that it is fun for kids or adults to make!!


Layered Twinkie Delight -Items Needed:
Hostess Twinkie
Scoop of ice cream
Carmel topping
Chopped pecans
