The Bucket List

Before you kick the bucket, what's the list you've conjured up to accomplish?

I've never really put much thought into this question. Perhaps, because, the issue of mortality has never really been a huge deal with me. That may sound pretentious or thoughtless, but as someone living for Christ, my thoughts on dying differ wildly from many.

However, when I think of a bucket list, and everything it entails, I think of it in terms as goals and possible dreams. I see the positive - the glass half full.

So, looking at it like that, I've always had a bucket list - just under a different name.

In no particular order and off the cuff, these would top my bucket list:

* Eat a pizza slice in New York City
* Visit Hobbiton in New Zealand
* Learn another language fluently
* Be an extra on a feature film
* Spend a week's vacation at DisneyWorld
* Kayak in the ocean
* Win an Oscar for writing
* Buy a tiny home or an RV and travel cross country
* Spend a Christmas in a snowy cabin/cottage setting
* White river rafting in the Grand Canyon
* Kiss in the rain

 Okay that last one was more a wish from watching way too many romantic comedies, but still...a girl can dream, can't she?

What's on your bucket list? Go on and share it!

Sincerely,
Tiff

It's been a while since I just wrote about myself and not anything or anyone else. Well, last night I spoke at my church's ladies meeting. It was fun! I spoke on love - the "love"chapter - 1 Corinthians 13. Love is patient, kind, blah, blah, you get the drift. It was awesome.I included some scenes from movies to go with each different kind of love. 1. Love is Patient - The Notebook - 1 Cor. 13:4 Who here can wait all those years for the one you love? Jacob, in the Bible, waited for his love for FOURTEEN years. Sheesh! That is some patient love right there. 2. Love is not Selfish - Pride and Prejudice - 1 Cor. 13:5 I love this scene from one of my favorite movies of all times. They both were, at times, full of pride and prejudice towards people of other status', but in the end, it was their selfless love that was so beautiful. In the Bible, Queen Esther put aside her social position and acted out this brave, selfless deed and in turn saved her people from destruct...

Star Words: The Seed of Learning

Yesterday, I talked of planting new seeds so if you're suddenly confused by my title, read on and you'll gain some understanding...hopefully. Okay, moving on... Unless you've been living under a rock, you'll know that one of the biggest movies this year (from one of the biggest movie franchises ever) is Star Wars: The Force Awakens.  Everything, from toys to shaving cream, has their stake in this particular film franchise. Including online dictionaries. Merriam-Webster has created a quiz to test the Average Joe, Jedi, and Jabba alike on the vocabulary found in the Star Wars Universe. So, tying in the title, this is my seed to you. The seed of learning. I love to learn and this quiz truly tests your knowledge of Star Wars words and the history behind them ( which I love! ). What's a parsec? Which war did the term storm-trooper first originate from? Take the quiz here and find out ! There's my seed for today. Hope you've enjoyed it! Much Love,...

Flavor of my Life: A Chocolate Lover's Confession

Chocolate? Vanilla? Strawberry? Those three flavors are the basis for any great dessert - especially ice cream. But if you really want to tickle my taste buds, combining the power of peanut butter with chocolate is near heavenly. When I asked my class of children (ranging from ages 7 - 12) what their favorite ice cream flavors were, the answers varied, but were surprisingly traditional. When they asked me the same question, without hesitation, I replied with my heavenly duo. Their response? Groans of disgust. I was a little surprised at their lack of imagination - them being kids and all. However, it makes sense when you think of their ever-growing palette. Heck, I'm still picky and in my thirties. But chocolate and peanut butter?! Mmm. Yes, I am writing an entire post about chocolate and peanut butter. In fact, I'll share a recent find of 20 mind-blowing recipes of the all-too-perfect flavor combo. One of my favorite places to go and enjoy these two flavors toget...
