Sometimes I think I should be banned from even my own kitchen. At times I get an idea that somehow does not turn out the way I thought it would. The idea seems like a good one, but I quickly realize it was a terrible idea.
Case in point is the time I thought I had a way to make a version of sugar free ice cream..
The idea that came to mind was to take low fat cottage cheese and add cocoa powder. My thinking was the cottage cheese contains the milk product but no sugar. I added the cocoa powder for the chocolate.. I eagerly stirred this strange concoction in anticipate of my creation.
Then I did it. I took one spoonful and into my mouth it went. To my horror, it quickly came out of my mouth as the realization that what I thought was an ever so clever idea was actually monstrosity. It tasted nothing like ice cream.
In my defense, there was nothing to warn me the idea wouldn’t work. But then perhaps that in itself should have been telling. No recipe exists for what I was trying to do. 🙂
So okay I am no Master Chef. God seems to have given me other abilities such as teaching. The classroom is a place that ideas I have actually turn out well. Another would be ministry among refugees and immigrants.
The truth of Ephesians 2:10 comes to mind.
For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Apparently cooking was not something I was created for. 🙂
Thank you for reading. God Bless.

You are right. You should be banned from your own kitchen lol
lol
You were showing creativity when you experimented with the ice cream, Matt.
It is true that we have different giftings, and all of our gifts are used together to further Christ’s kingdom. All gifts, are blessings from God. 🌼🤗
I think my creativity belongs elsewhere not the kitchen 🙂
😄
Hahaha. We are in the same boat. Kitchen isn’t the place for me except when I am eating. Classroom is for me. 😄😂
I enjoyed reading this.
Hi
Hello. 💝
Hi
How are you sister
How are you
Eating- I am good at that lol
lol, that is funny and a good story 🙂
It also good to try instead of wondering what it will be like. Bless you and hope you are well
I am ok. Maybe I should cook in your kitchen lol
With supervision 😂 or you can watch and tell the stories. I always listen to podcasts when I am cooking 🤗
I would need a lot of supervision lol
😂
Matt, I always enjoy how you relate “real” life to our Christian walk. Back when I was a sophomore in college, the Spirit moved me to change my major from Accounting to Business Education. I never regretted following the open door placed in front of me. And hey, thanks for the tip on keeping cottage cheese away from cocoa powder.
You’re welcome on the top lol
What a blessing how The Spirit led you
Thank you for making me smile, Matt
Glad you smiled 🤗
Kiki. 😂
I can only imagine how your taste bud must have felt. 😂

Lol. Sorry about that. 😁
Never mind being banned from the kitchen, you shouldn’t even have a kitchen….😂

Haha. At least you tried!🤣👣
Maybe I should try in your kitchen lol
Ice cream is one thing I’ve never attempted, so I think we both need to seek Dianne’s Kitchen for her expertise!😅👣
😂😂😂
Lol…..my ribs. There is always a next time
Maybe I should cook in your kitchen lol
🤔😂🤣
Do you want me to cook for you? 😂
LOL! Not in a million years!
Lol
Ahh I love it!! We can’t do it all BUT like you said God has given each of us our own unique abilities….p.s. cooking isn’t one of my strongpoints either, you know that though 😉
We should cook together sometime lol
Hahahaha no doubt!!
