February 12,13: Saturday started with the usual Chocolate chip pancakes. Then Clara and I spent most of the afternoon making a couple different kinds of chili for church tomorrow. On Super Bowl Sundays our congregation holds it’s annual Chili Cook Off as a fund raiser for our youth. At the last minute I decided to enter two kinds of chili. In a team effort Clara and I cooked up an authentic Texas style chili and a sweet and spicy more traditional chili.
May 9: It’s still Easter. Our Kantor had the idea to put together a ‘virtual choir.’ Our kiddos played bells and there were many other great contributions. I love this!
Our babies singing “A Lenten Love song”. This is the anthem the children’s choir was preparing to sing today for the Maundy Thursday service but wasn’t able to. I asked our Kantor if he wouldn’t mind continuing the music program with just our kids. He was happy to do that.
