The Lord is so good, and has provided us with such a wonderful place to live.

Joel and I had several appointments this past Saturday to check out some houses for rent. We wanted up in the high country of North Carolina as it is simply beautiful country. The first house we looked out was in Elk Park, NC, and it was the only one that we looked at. One the way up there, we both felt such excitement...it felt like we were on our way home.
There were sooo many weeping willow trees-which i love-the town is small, with small stores, churches, winding roads, Joel had the same feelings I did as he drove "Honey, I'm falling in love already just with the drive out here!"

This is what we drove up on. My feeling was "WOW". It never fails to amaze me that there are people that believe there is no God. You can look at the creation and know that there was intelligent design. I believe with all my heart that God spoke it into existence.

I love to cook, rather i love to bake, which is evident with all the kitchen gadgets I have, and continue to buy on a regular basis. I love my apartment, but the kitchen is not exactly conductive to creativity! Look at this--->>>
You could set my kitchen is this at least four times!! The cabinet space is UNREAL! and layed out so efficiently. I will even be able to separate my baking items from the hot foods. This is important to me, as I have a good starter collection of flours: all-purpose, self-rising, bread, high gluten, almond, amaranth, rye, whole wheat, flax seed just to name a few. There is so much counter space, so I can roll out my bagel and doughnut dough!! My husband is all about the doughnuts.

Here is the front room-a fire place with a blower on it! There is even wood outside from the last resident, so it is dried and ready to go for this winter. With the altitude being so high, I'm sure we will welcome the leftovers as it get very chilly up there.

I will post more tomorrow, as I have a written final and practical in my baking class in the morning. I'm off to study now.
