101 things...#1

I was reading a book of 101 things about Jane Austen that a friend gave me for Christmas. I wouldn't say that the book was filled with 101 facts so much as a mixture of 101 facts, opinions and theories about Jane. At first I was alittle disappointed...I wanted facts... I like facts. But to tell you the truth I'm usually grateful for opinions... other peoples' opinions often help me pick up on facts that I hadn't even notice. For example, I heard someone say that when God clothed Adam and Eve he married himself to them. I would have thought that he married himself to them when he made them. However, researching that opinion I learned that in 1st century Hebrew to put your cloak on a woman was to marry her. Interesting...

All this to say that the book got me thinking of 101 "things" about myself that I would like to share with you or would like to learn about myself. Some "things" will be silly I'm sure...others maybe more serious. My hope is to learn something new about myself and to share what I find fun, interesting and important with you!

Contrary to my prior belief I don't hate all fish/seafood except for shrimp. This weekend Bryan and I bought Talapia from Ukrop's and baked it was a recipe that a man working there gave us. The fish was not very fishy and the texture wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The recipe on the other hand was horrible and it turns out that I do not like things that are almost totally baked in mayonnaise (which could be #2 thing). All in all though... I'm glad I tried it and it has given me ideas for other ways to try Talapia baked.

  1. I love Tilapia! I really don't like fish that tastes too "fishy" either and this is one that doesn't! I usually broil it with garlic, butter, and lemon pepper. We eat a lot of seafood down here in cajun country : )
