Went and saw The Dastardly Ficus, a play directed by our friend, Amanda. Amazing acting, just two women, one man and a ficus. Go get some Polish food first at Podhlanka!

Runs through April 4. Go see it!

Absolutely Interesting: Soul Pancake

I have a new favorite site. Soul Pancake. Created by Rainn Wilson (Dwight from The Office), SoulPancake.com is a website and forum about spirituality and creativity. Actual discussion about God and faith without stupid flame wars (yet).

Soul Pancake!

Interesting: Twitter

Between Facebook, Twitter, and this blog, there are all sorts of avenues for people to not listen to the nonsense I have to say! Yay science!

Watch this space for more photos.

Helpful: Open sign

I really liked this at my parent's church. Clever. Old church buildings like ours can be so foreboding sometimes.

Interesting: Small town auction

Spent the weekend with my folks in Kansas. We checked out an antiques auction in Douglass, KS, a small town that my high school used to whoop in football, tennis, and especially Scholar's Bowl and debate. Ha!

Lots of furniture, odds and ends, Mom was looking for potentially valuable china and other dishes.

Very interesting to see someone demonstrate a frog "gigger," as well.

Interesting: Liver

Apparently, my body is making its own fois gras.

Helpful: Small groups

Our church just started another round of small groups. I hadn't been a part of one for a long time due to the campaign work last year, so I'm excited to try it again. This group is a men's group, which should be fun. Reminds me of old days, our church when I was a kid had a men's group; all I saw them do was make pancakes and go on mission trips to Appalachia. I'm looking for more than that out of my friendships, although more pancakes would be fine.
