If you're continuing the metaphor in your second comment, then your comment is very insightful. If you're actually talking about coffee, your observation about Starbucks (viz. personality) is understandable. I've heard similar sentiments. Something about it continues to draw me, though. Not sure why. <strong>Wade</strong>, good to see you back. How long have you been doing the house parent thing? I don't know if you know, but my wife and I are foster parents and are in the process of adopting our daughter that came from that system. <strong>Alan</strong>, your words blessed me. If our Father uses me in anyone's life, I am grateful. <strong>ded</strong>, amen!!! Despite my fun in the comment thread at Alan's, you know my heart is right with the sentiments of your comment. While I'm at it, thank you for being such a model of that to me. You and your entire family are such a blessing to us. <strong>Bernard</strong>, welcome to my blog! Gee, I wonder how you found me? ;) hehe I'm going to read the post you linked to on the tithing post. I look forward to interacting with you. You seem to be a reasonable guy from what I've read. (And Tony Sisk recommends you, which means a lot in my book!) Shalene, thanks for your comments. If you’re continuing the metaphor in your second comment, then your comment is very insightful.

We were dong the simple church thing down here in Cherryville NC, since that time my wife and I have moved on th work at a children's home in Seneca SC as house parents. I love coffee so much that at night I get it ready and have it on a timer to be ready when I get up. I have went with the specialty coffee from Folgers. It's just what I like.

I had to ask some experienced friends how they made thier coffee. I always prefer coffee that has been made for me by someone else. I love Starbucks, but I think it lacks originality and the personal connection I get at the local coffee shop. I also think the coffee I make myself tastes much better if I am sharing it with someone. you know, the first times I made my own coffe at home, it was terrible!
