the turkey story
This year, we decided to indulge a bit on the Thanksgiving turkey. We reserved our all natural 14 - 16lb Whole Foods turkey a few days before Thanksgiving. We were willing to pay the $1.99/lb for all natural but not the $3.99/lb for the USDA certified organic. As we moseyed to the meat counter on Wednesday night, they told us that they had run out of the all natural and instead would give us the organic for the same price. Plus they only had a 12 or 17lb-er, so we went with the 17. Needless to say, we had a lot of turkey! But, boy was it dee-lish with an herbes de Provence recipe. We decided we would try waiting till the last minute next year too, in hopes of getting the same deal. :)

science and faith
I wouldn't call it a "quest," but I have a continuing interest in seeing Christians engaged in the questions and art of science beyond controversies such as stem cell research. I was encouraged to see this opinion article on the ways in which science has its own faith in the things that just are.

beautiful day
I wasn't expecting it, but today was a beautiful day. We walked outside and the overcast skies and the cooler air didn't capture my attention at first. But as we slowly began pruning some bushes, planting some bulbs, and milling around the yard, I realized how gorgeous the day was.
After an extended summer, the leaves have finally changed color and some much needed rain turned the tree bark dark brown. It was also an away game for UNC, meaning there weren't tailgaters or news helicopters making noise around our house. The birds were quiet and the only noise I heard was the scratching of squirrels and my feet rustling the leaves.
