Tonight was a Relief Society activity. And though my day was hectic and going tonight wreaked a bit of havoc on our little miss's bedtime routine, I'm really glad I went :).
You see, the great thing is that all these sisters have so much to offer me. I learned a lot tonight, in addition to just being out and enjoying the company of other women. We are a sisterhood, and we are able to lift and educate one another with our various abilities and knowledge. It's amazing.
Tonight I tasted a new recipe that is delicious and exotic tasting and vegan (and probably more healthy than many things I make) and I got the recipe and plan to make it again! (I even brought a little sample home for the husband and he liked it too, so definitely going to try it!).
I learned how to cut an onion so that it's not so annoying (I have actually gone to dehydrated onion about 85% of the time, because I loathe cutting onions.
I got to eat some very yummy home-made bread (and who doesn't love that!?!).
I got some great tips on ways to encourage my children to eat their veggies (I loved these ideas! I'm so not a creative mom, and I am glad there are women out there who are and who are really great at finding fun ways for kids to do not-so-fun things!!!)
And I laughed a lot about the cookies that tasted.... healthy. (Because they were -- apparently no butter or sugar). And for the record, I liked the chocolate ones quite a bit (made with avocado!).
And all of these things are because of the sisterhood of Relief Society. And I am grateful to be a member of such a great Society of women.
What are you grateful for today?
