"saucer down, i repeat, we have a saucer down..."

AARRGGHH!!!! ....while making din-din (frozen pizza), i went to get a lunch plate for my slices and a saucer slipped out of the cupboard onto the counter.... now i'm down to only 2 saucers, and i USE them ALL THE FREAKIN' TIME!!!!!!




DOUBLE ARRGGHH!!! as i was arranging the saucer halves in my hand for the above pic, i managed to nick myself... and man i'm a bleeder!!! aarrgghh!!!!




by the time i got my hand washed, dried, and put a bandaid on, my finger was bleedin' profusely, far more than is shown in the above pic.

oh MAN...!!!

now where am i going to get some more light spring green teacup saucers? sheesh! ( ... and i have taken great pains over the years to collect only light spring green dishware... i'd say 95% of my dishware matches veddy well, indeed. ...less two saucers. bah.)

so, do i ever use my saucers as teacup saucers? no. i use them for lots of other things though - mostly to put my soup ladle or wooden spoons on while cooking, or to cover a mug or cereal bowl in the fridge (and lunch plates are *simply* too big to be useful for those purposes most of the time, dahlings)... (and i try very to store everything in glass, rather than plastics... i want to have a plastic free home as much as possible. ...so no tupperware for me, sorry char!).

... *sniffs* ... my poor departed saucer, may ye rest in peace, never to slice another finger again.

THIS BLOG IS IN NEED OF AN OVERHAUL. there are posts from years back i would not be able to post in good conscience now. i plan to overhaul the blog, and either delete or add a disclaimer to those posts. but that is gonna take time....

The Radical Summons: "Therefore let us go to Him outside the camp and bear the reproach He endured. For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come." Hebrews 13:13.

"The Spirit never loosens where the Word binds; the Spirit never justifies where the Word condemns; the Spirit never approves where the Word disapproves; the Spirit never blesses where the Word curses." —Thomas Brooks

‎"God receives none but those who are forsaken, restores health to none but those who are sick, gives sight to none but the blind, and life to none but the dead. He does not give saintliness to any but sinners, nor wisdom to any but fools. In short: He has mercy on none but the wretched and gives grace to none but those who are in disgrace. Therefore no arrogant saint, or just or wise man can be material for God, neither can he do the work of God, but he remains confined within his own work and makes of himself a fictitious, ostensible, false, and deceitful saint, that is, a hypocrite." --Martin Luther (W.A. 1.183ff)

i will not let You go: "Jacob's sense of his total debility and utter defeat is now the secret of his power with his friendly Vanquisher. God can overthrow all the prowess of the self-reliant, but He cannot resist the earnest entreaty of the helpless." --Albert Barnes

i will not let You go: "Jacob's determination did not flow from his strength, it flowed from his weakness." --Charles Leiter
