I left today unscheduled so I could work on my 19th Century "close reading" assessment. Katie and I met at a new favorite spot of ours: Foodie. It's an adorable, quaint restaurant owned by Jo, Justin, and baby Erin. Krista, Katie and I happened upon it one morning when we were looking for a quiet place to have an early lunch, and it was the perfect find. In thinking of a distraction-free environment in which to write my paper, Foodie was the sensible option. So Katie and I met there this afternoon...and were pleasantly surprised to find that Krista and her mom, who is visiting this week, had the same brilliant idea!
Katie and I worked diligently for several hours until closing, and then meandered downstairs to pay and say goodbye. We talked with Jo and played with Erin for a few minutes, and amidst our conversation, discovered that Jo and her family also attend Hillsong London in Surrey! Jo encouraged us to find a way to come to the Colour Conference, and we told her about Passion. God is moving in mighty ways here. It is amazing to be a part of it all and to watch it unfold.
I'm heading out now to have dinner at Wagamama with the peeps, Jeff, and Jeff's family (who are also visiting this week). Then we'll probably head to the pub for a bit before we go our separate ways this weekend. Katie and Krista are headed to Scotland, and Erin and I are going to Sussex! I'm sure there will be lots of pictures to show you on Sunday.
Have an incredible weekend, dear reader.
Love,

I was especially intrigued with the visiting families in this post? I thought that was against your creed?
ReplyDeleteSounds lovely, buttercup. :)
