“Cooking” seems to be the theme of the last few weeks in LaGrange for our family.
At our house we have been working on getting some sort of entrance to our house that doesn’t involve dirt and concrete blocks…so we took some time planning and ended up with a deck patio both on the front and back of the house. The “cooking” part comes in because that’s what happened to us while being outside in the near 100 degree weather while completing these projects. We cooked and now our project is done (for the most part).
The other “cooking” is happening in our new compost bins that we built out of scraps left over from the deck projects. Sarah did some reading up on the idea of composting and the “cooking” happens when all of that fun stuff you put in the pile is warmed by the sun and uses that energy to speed the decomposition.
We also have been “cooking” up some ideas at the TBM Home Office that will make small advances in how we do things. All said and done, we now enjoy sitting on the deck in the cool of the evenings reading and talking through the events of the day. Then, next Spring we will be able to reap the benefits of the compost when we plant our garden for the 2013 growing season. At the Home Office we will be able to start rolling out some of our ideas during the last months of the Summer. Thank you for your invaluable prayers and your faithful support of our ministry that allows us to be a support to TBM Missionaries around the world.
