Three Beautiful Things 07/03/11: Sonette at Church, Sonette and Coffee, Skillet Dinner

1.  Sonette Bales is in town for a week and we met at St. Mary's for the 11:00 service.  I was especially happy that Sonette heard Rev. Betsy Tesi's compelling sermon, an insightful riff on superheroes, Jesus (who is not like a cinematic superhero), the U.S.A., donkeys, burdens, and comfort. 

2.  Sonette and I had a very leisurely cup of coffee at Vero after the service and talked about a wide variety of things, starting with the subject of church and branching off into all kinds of other delightful and intriguing areas. 

3.  Sitting with the Deke and Molly out in the cool of the backyard, we deliberated for about twenty minutes as to what to do for dinner.  We decided that I would make what the Deke and Molly call a skillet dinner, so I got out the trusty electric frying pan and fried up some bacon, onions, potatoes, ground beef, red pepper, mushrooms, and spinach and seasoned it with lemon and Greek seasoning.  We had ourselves a dinner. Everyone was happy, more happy than had we ordered carry out Chinese or something like that.
