I realized today that I am completely incompetent when it comes to cooking for less than five people. I have no idea how much food people will eat or how big of a pan to use. Today, I made spaghetti for three people ... I debated over what size pans to use for at least five minutes. It was also the first time in my life that I have never used an entire pound of hamburger for one meal. It was so strange.

The little brother of one of my friends who went to the DR with me was killed this morning in a car accident. Please, please pray for Brittany and her family.

Please pray for my cousin!

My cousin, Rhonda, works at an orphanage in Mexico. Yesterday, they received a threat from a drug cartel asking for a large amount of money. If they don't get the money, they are going to take it out on the people at the orphanage!

Please pass the word along and pray that God would have his hand on the situation and no one would get hurt.
