Enjoy!

en⋅joy–verb (used with object)

to experience with joy; take pleasure in

I am noticing that I use the word enjoy a lot (especially after I share a recipe.)  Having a degree in English, I like to know the exact definition of words, so here it is.

Eating is something that we have to do.  (It keeps us alive.)  Why should something so essential be so boring?  Well, it shouldn't.  It's fun to take pleasure in the blessings God has given us (food for example.)  So, I want everyone to be able to enjoy their meals, and to give God thanks for His provision.

When I say "enjoy"  I don't only mean that I want you to enjoy the food, but I want people to enjoy the creating of the dish.  It's a very therapeutic thing for me, cooking that is.  When it seems like I'm not in control, I can go into the kitchen and still create something good to eat.  It's a semblance of having a little control, then a good reminder that God is really in control the whole time.  I also really enjoy bringing joy to other people.  A great way to do this is by cooking for them.  I LOVE cooking for people!  So, stop by sometime, and we'll see what I can throw together.

In the meantime, keep reading.  I love to hear your feedback (I crave communication with people, still not knowing people in my new town.)  And I hope that you continue to enjoy!
