    Wanted to say a quick goodbye...

    and to wish you all well. :) Thank you for sharing your knowledge, kindness, and humor with me. I've learned quite a bit and am grateful for the short time I've been able to spend here. Unfortunately, the more time I spend online, the less productive I am offline. :p It's time I move on...

    Living in Indiana?

    Then I have a question for you. :) Where do you live, and do you like it? Feel free to expand on your answer. A move to Indiana might be in our future (within the next year to year and a half). So far, we've been looking at Indianapolis and Bloomington.

    Cream of Cauliflower Soup

    Cream of Cauliflower Soup This one is a favorite in our house (and we're not huge cauliflower fans...go figure). I blend everything to make it a bit smoother, which means I can be lazy and not chop the veggies uniformly. I also replace the milk with skim ~ this brings the soup to about 250...

    1 Cup of whole milk 1/2 Cup heavy cream 1 Tablespoon of vanilla extract 3/4 Cup of sugar 8 ounces of chocolate (I just use chips.) Combine milk, cream, vanilla, and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. When the mixture is hot, add the chocolate and stir until it is completely melted...

    Back in the fold, if only for a moment.

    I found this to be an interesting experience. Thanks to our church's youth ministry, I had a wonderful core group of friends (about 17, though the number grew over time) back when I was in high school. For several of us, our relationships started even before then, as we lived near each other...

    My first chin-up

    That's right. Only one, but it was one awesome chin up, totally over that bar and from a full hang. :woohoo: (Sorry. I had to celebrate. :o My weenie arms and I have been working on this for a while.)

    Obama & I going gray together. Warning: Vent!

    You'll have to forgive me for being vague ~ I don't want to share certain personal details online. So I'll break it down to this: 1) I live in a country where I'm free to vote and think how I like. 2) I live in a family who will say I'm free to vote and think how I like, but they don't...

    Taqiyya

    I wanted to post this here instead of the Islam DIR because, in addition to Muslims, I'd like to hear from non-Muslims educated on the subject as well. I've run across the term a few times now, spelling it as both "taqqiya" and "taqiyya." May we discuss exactly what this means? Thanks. :)...

    "Bikini or Headscarf": An interesting article via CNN and O Magazine

    "Bikini or Headscarf ~ Which Offers More Freedom?" Rest of the story here. (Be sure to check out the lovely picture of mother and daughter. :) ) This one tugged at my heartstrings quite a bit. I can identify with the mother, and I find the daughter both adorable (her little round face...

    Some fun in honor of Friday ~ When you met...

    Think of a long term relationship, either past or present. A romantic relationship may come to mind first, but it doesn't have to be one. It can be a friendship or any kind of partnership. Now think of that moment when you first met. Did you have any clue you'd end up together, either as...

    Went to my first UU service

    I found a place about 30 minutes from my home. The people there were extremely friendly, and yesterday's focus was on the Summer Solstice, so the service was pretty cool. I'm experiencing out-of-my-comfort-zone pains, of course (I'm used to the Catholic Mass.). Plus I'm hesitant to try and...

    CyberDissidents.org

    I ran across this site via Irshad Manji's site: CyberDissidents.org There's a lot to read through ~ so many stories ~ but I am beyond impressed by the guts these people display. It also reminds me to be grateful for my freedoms. Just thought I'd pass it along. :)

    What Mistakes do Non-Muslims make when debating/discussing Islam with Muslims?

    Inspired by Shia Islam's thread. I wasn't sure where to place this at first, but I figured the DIR would probably get more answers: So Fatihah doesn't have to repeat himself:
