Thinking About ...

... the durability of being and the Scholastic associations between substance, time and space.



OK ... I get paid to do this. It's my job.

This "Thinking About..." was from a conversation in my 12th grade Humane Letters class yesterday and the other two sprung out of our faculty seminar discussion of Louis Menand's The Metaphysical Club. So it may not be cooking but I am bringing home the bacon - the Francis Bacon that is. And, honestly, I can hardly believe that I found a way to get paid to do this. What a blessed vocation.

Speaking of cooking ... wonderful homemade French Onion Soup awaited my homecoming last night. Wow!

Are you really making french onion soup? It was the first time I'd made it. The kids didn't care for it so much, but I enjoyed making, smelling, and eating it! I used The Pioneer Woman's recipe.

I really am making it. My family doesn't care for it either. Brent will be gone tonight.

I invited a fellow lover of the French L'Oignon to partake as our pre-fed children play in the periphery.

And, yeah, Balsbaughs, after we get back from our spring break trip, I wanna have you and the kids over, okay?!
