My hope is for all to receive sanctuary and encouragement, including hospitality venues and ideas, conversational meditations, and organic gardening tips.

Oh! How I Love Writing
My book, Tell the Truth About Adultery, is coming out on June 28th, so I feel the need to let you know what’s behind the curtain my writing.
Celebrate in Darkness
It’s Palm Sunday this week. I remember fondly my mom sewing new dresses for all of us four sisters. For in Lebanon, we wore our Easter finery on Palm Sunday (Shaynini) as well as Easter. We paraded down our block along with other bedecked families streaming out of their apartments on their way to their places of worship, waving palm branches and carrying aloft their floral decorated candles. In our neighborhood, these places of Christian worship included Maronite Catholic, Syriac, Roman Catholic, and Baptist Churches.

The weather is gorgeous! Fingers crossed that the last freeze has come and gone. So, I’m itching to fire up the grill and enjoy alfresco dining.
