I Never Would Have Dreamed……..
January 31st, 2012
When Evan was a young boy, he was about as shy as they come.
Hiding behind my leg when people tried to talk to him, I can remember trying to pull him around to say "hi" and finally just saying, "He is very shy."
Before he was even a teenager, he began taking piano lessons and later added guitar lessons. I often hoped that one day he would be on the worship team at church, but he never seemed to want to share his talent publicly.
I can remember vividly the moment that I came to peace with this.
I was reading, "Shepherding a Child's Heart," by Tedd Tripp; and in this book, Tripp challenged everything I had believed about my own motivation as a mom.
Did I want Evan to play publicly for himself or for me?
What if God had given Evan these particular gifts as a way of simply worshiping alone, much like David sang and played instruments while shepherding on a hill far away from crowds?
Could I be okay with this?
As I came to grips with the reality that deep inside I was wanting to see Evan on a stage more than he ever longed to be, I let go of these desires and allowed him to simply play for his pleasure not the world's.
Now, Evan is a young man.
If you have read my blog for a while, you know that Evan graduated from Morehead State University last spring and moved to California in September to pursue his dream as an actor, of all things.
If I lined up all of my children and even all of their friends, I think Evan would have been one of my last guesses (based on their childhood personalities) for "Who will decide to be an actor?" But I believe God has placed this desire in Evan, because his passion for the pursuit comes from deep within him not from any of us pushing back home.
When Evan and Tim left our house, Evan had a car full of most of his earthly belongings and a place to stay temporarily (with a friend of ours son) until he found an apartment.
Five months later, I am thankful to say that Evan has found a roommate and although he sleeps on an inflatable mattress, has a Rubbermaid container for a nightstand, and needs a dresser, he is doing well.
He has signed with a modeling agency, has been hired by catering company as a waiter, delivers pizzas some evenings for Domino's, and has a job with a fitness gym that has been under construction for the past few months. He has been taking some acting classes off and on and has auditioned for and been selected for a small part in a play.
He reads a lot about the art of acting, and we talk to him almost everyday.
I wanted to share a picture of Evan now that he is in California.
I don't know what God's plans are for him, but I do know this:
As long as Evan keeps God first and considers Him in all of his decisions, I believe God will lead Him to the right opportunities and set his boundaries in pleasant places.
Lord, you have assigned me my portion and my cup;
you have made my lot secure.
The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
surely I have a delightful inheritance.
I will praise the LORD, who counsels me;
even at night my heart instructs me.
Psalm 16:5-7
Evan has been attending a church called Ecclesia, and we are so thankful for Christians all over the world who can be there for our children when we cannot.
Here is my once-shy little guy:
You can follow Evan on Twitter: @eggsandsalsa.
He often sends out health tips and funny, random thoughts from the West Coast.
Please keep him in your prayers.
We claim this verse for all of our children:
Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go:
and when he is old,
he will not depart from it.
Evan, we love you so much. We are proud of you. We pray for you every single day. You are never far from our heart, and God is always in your heart. I told you I would not worry about you, because I have placed you in the hands of God……..and I still mean that. Whatever you do, do it for His glory and He will lead you along the right path……I believe that with every inch of my soul.
My dear blogging friends, as you pray for Charlotte, Martha, Amber, Evan, and so many more that you have on your hearts, please also say a prayer for Tim's mom. She was hospitalized yesterday in Dallas, Texas. Martha was hospitalized yesterday, too. I will keep you posted on all of them as I receive news.
All of my love and prayers,
A Week of Updates……
January 30th, 2012
I have received emails asking about my kids from time to time, so I thought I'd spend a little time catching you up on how they are all doing. This morning, I'll share about Olivia since she is home and I have photographed her recently.
Olivia is definitely a teenage girl!
If she wrote her own update, she would not hesitate to say that she is both sweet and moody rolled into one!
She reminds me of Paul in so many ways…..
Passionate about sharing God with her friends, knowing the kind of life God longs for her to live, yet often doing the very things she doesn't want to do.
I admire so much Olivia's ability to regroup and move on, though. I was a teenage girl who could hang on to my moodiness for days, and I guess now is as good a time as any to say, "Thank you, mom and dad, for the grace you extended often to your daughter who could shut down and stay shut down indefinitely."
Olivia is going to give soccer a try this spring, so I think she is both excited and nervous.
She is hoping for at least one big snow this winter. So far, we have had a Kentucky April for the month of November…rain, rain, and more rain.
Olivia still plans to be a pediatrician when she grows up. This has been her dream ever since she stopped talking about being a "petnevarian," which is what she always called a veterinarian as a little girl. Olivia is an animal lover to the core. She can bathe three dogs in one afternoon and groom them all while humming every minute. Here she is with Dash.
Olivia is full of questions.
She wrote Tim a note during church yesterday asking about communion.
She is a deep thinker and keeps us on our toes……….challenged, inspired, and busy every day.
Nick and Olivia were big buddies, and I know she misses him as much as we do; but she presses on with the faith of Abraham. I am thankful for our gift from India. If you've considered adoption but been afraid, I am nudging you today to consider blessing your life and the life of a child who needs a home by stepping out and researching this option.
We went through Holt International, and they were wonderful!
I remember the night we decided to move forward.
Tim said, "If we bought a new car and made payments, five years from now we would have a used car. But if we used that same money to adopt a little girl, five years from now I know we wouldn't regret it."
And he was right!
God handpicked Olivia for us from an orphanage full of beautiful children and it was love at first sight.
I've always wondered if one day Olivia might decide to return to India to help others know about God.
When she was four she looked at me one afternoon and out of the blue said,
"When I grow up, I am going to go back to India and tell people about God, and Jesus, and Spirit."
My heart was filled with both joy and fear.
Then without pausing, she looked at me with a very serious face and asked, "What is Spirit?"
I had to laugh and remember that there are a lot of years of learning ahead of Olivia before she might really think about heading across the ocean to share God's love…..
Until then, I am cherishing every moment, thankful that God allowed us to share Him with her.
"Therefore know that the Lord your God, He is God,
the faithful God Who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations
of those who love Him and keep His commandments."
Deuteronomy 7:9
Olivia has a classmate who is in the hospital right now on a ventilator.
Her name is Amber Ripberger. She and her family need your prayers.
If you would like to send her an e-card, I know her mom would be touched by love from all over the world. Be sure to add where you are from to your note. This will make Amber smile when she can.
Here is the link to the hospital:
Also, Charlotte is still struggling and need of prayer as they await a bone marrow transplant.
Martha's first round of chemo resulted in a very, very rough week of pain.
I know that God hears your prayers and answers in ways we may not see or understand until Heaven.
Thank you for being prayer warriors for those you do not know and those you do.
I love you all so much.
If you happen to be the reader from Iceland, I would love to talk to you. I have a friend whose daughter will be traveling there, and she needs a contact when she arrives. You can email me at email@example.com.
Praying now for all of you,
When You're Anxious……..
January 27th, 2012
Life is filled with moments worthy of anxiety.
Stressful home situations, stressful jobs, health problems………….
I've had many anxiety-filled seasons in my life.
Seasons that seemed as if they would last forever.
I remember vividly the hours spent in different doctor's offices and hospitals with Nick waiting for news, waiting for surgeries to begin and end, waiting for chemo to start.
I remember clearly the feelings inside me as I sat by the phone waiting for a doctor or Tim to call with an update.
I remember Nick's last few weeks of life and can still see images in my mind that bring back memories so painful that I have to immediately think of something else or the anxiety rises again.
I also have present-day reasons for anxiety.
Not as severe, not as personal, but still difficult.
Parental anxiety, teacher anxiety, and the list goes on and on………..
Even the anxiety of my friends and students can cause me to feel anxious as I long to help them but often have no easy solution for their problem.
Life has a way of handing us challenge after challenge.
What do we do when we feel anxious?
I am so thankful that God included the word "anxiety" in the Bible and that He knew it was an emotion we WOULD experience.
I Peter 5:7 says, "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."
This verse is one I carried in my purse in a notebook throughout Nick's journey with cancer.
I still cling to it today in my grief and in my day-to-day life.
I love to envision a fisherman fastening all of his anxiety onto a hook and casting the line far out into the sea.
Then, instead of reeling it back in, simply letting go of the pole and allowing the water to carry his anxiety away.
Today, if you are feeling anxious.
Don't feel guilty,
as if your faith is weak.
Simply know that God understands and He cares for you.
Cast your anxiety to Him.
Allow Him to carry it for you.
Lean back in His loving arms and know that He can handle all the things you cannot handle alone.
Praying for you all today,
A Psalm for Today…….
January 26th, 2012
Psalm 20
In times of trouble, may the LORD answer your cry.
May the name of the God of Jacob keep you safe from all harm.
May he send you help from his sanctuary
and strengthen you from Jerusalem.
May he remember all your gifts
and look favorably on your burnt offerings.
May he grant your heart's desires
and make all your plans succeed.
May we shout for joy when we hear of your victory
and raise a victory banner in the name of our God.
May the LORD answer all your prayers.
Now I know that the LORD rescues his anointed king.
He will answer him from his holy heaven
and rescue him by his great power.
Some nations boast of their chariots and horses,
but we boast in the name of the LORD our God.
Those nations will fall down and collapse,
but we will rise up and stand firm.
Give victory to our king, O LORD!
Answer our cry for help.
Praying for you this morning,
Just say it………
January 25th, 2012
As a teacher, I'm more than happy to help a student……
if I know they need help.
As a mom, I'm thrilled to be there for my kids……..
if I know they need something.
God knows everything already, but I think He longs to "hear" our needs straight from our mouths too.
He wants to share life with us not just be Lord over us.
When perfection began, it began in a garden.
God walking with Adam and Eve, talking and sharing life together.
The devil must have hated this intimacy, and I think one of his primary goals for tempting Eve was to place a wall between God and His creation.
Do you ever feel a wall between you and God?
Do you ever feel that your foot is slipping?
Do you ever feel anxiety rising up in you?
Just say it out loud.
Tell God how you are feeling.
He longs to break through the wall and support you with His love.
He longs to bring joy to your soul.
I've had many foot-slipping, anxious days.
I am so thankful for a Father who listens, cares, and comforts.
When I said, "My foot is slipping, your love, O Lord, supported me."
When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought joy to my soul.
Psalm 94:18-19
Healthy Perspective………..
January 24th, 2012
Job sat in ashes, covered in boils.
His children gone.
Everything he worked for years to earn swept away.
With a wife saying, "Curse God and die," and friends surrounding him,
Job listened to their desperate attempts to make sense of his pain as they listed every possible thing he could have done to make God so angry.
And yet, Job looked up.
He knew that even if God seemed to have abandoned him, there had to be more to his tragic life story.
He knew that in spite of all of his agony, ONE DAY all the sorrow would be washed away in a minute.
He didn't understand his suffering.
Deep inside he felt unjustly punished.
He was the poster child for the saying,
"Life is not fair."
But Job still looked up.
Last night, I ran to pick up Olivia from a basketball game.
As I stepped into our driveway, I happened to notice how clear the sky appeared.
Every star sparkling in such vivid detail.
Stars I hadn't noticed in a long time.
I stopped for a second and just looked up.
These stars all shone in the same positions I had remembered them in a season where I looked up often.
I remember after Nick's death looking up almost every night, as if somehow I could see Nick in the expanse of the sky.
I knew he was there in the heavens, and I still believe that today.
I knew that the God of the Universe who created every sparkling dot in the sky still loved me and that He held Nick in the palm of His hand.
But life gets busy and looking up at the sky hasn't been a nightly occurrence for me for some time.
It felt surreal to stand in my drive way last night and see the wonder of the sky anew.
It was as if three years of grief were swallowed up in a moment's time as I slipped back in time to that early pain and felt the same peace I felt as I trusted God through those first few months of deep sadness.
Today, I'm sensing someone is brokenhearted and needs to know that God loves them deeply even when "life is not fair."
I am praying for you today, and I want you to know that no matter how uncertain, how painful, how difficult your earthly situation there is one thing that remains forever true,
"Your Redeemer lives and one day He will stand upon the earth at last."
And when He does, all of our heartache will be washed away……….leaving a cloudless night filled with the wonder of a starry sky.
Keep looking up.
He's there!
I promise.
Job 19:25-27
"But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives,
and he will stand upon the earth at last.
And after my body has decayed,
yet in my body I will see God!
I will see him for myself.
Yes, I will see him with my own eyes.
I am overwhelmed at the thought!
Thunderstorms in January…..
January 23rd, 2012
First, thank you for the emails, texts, and comments in response to Saturday's post. I am taking your advice and trying many of your recommendations. I love you all so much. You make me laugh, remind me I'm normal, and give me hope!!
Second, I awoke this morning to the sound of a downpour outside. I knew bad weather was headed our way last night when my mom texted and said "Check your weather before heading to bed. Bad storms are coming."
Thunder and lightning arrived just an hour or so after her text, and I'm guessing it's been raining all night long.
Today, we are in a wind advisory, with more storms possible, and I'm thinking, "This is odd weather for January." The 10-day forecast shows no signs of cold temperatures or snow. No, it's more like an April forecast. Have we somehow missed winter?
It occurred to me, as I was thinking about our strange weather, that often in life we "expect" certain seasons at certain times and when these seasons become jumbled we grasp for understanding.
I'm reading from Job right now, and I'm struck with the "mixed-up seasons" in Job's life and how he and his friends are grasping for some type of sense in all of his agony.
His friends ramble and guess and speculate as they sit with Job and try to bringing meaning to his countless tragedies.
Even Job gets caught up in trying to make sense of his losses, his pain, his illness.
But he can't.
And if your life is anything like mine, I'm just guessing there are moments when things just don't make sense to you either.
There are thunderstorms and January, and we are left wondering, 'Why?'
Late last night I received word that a college friend's wife had died unexpectedly yesterday afternoon.
The most tragic part of this news was that our college friend died several years ago leaving her a widow with a young daughter. There is now an 8 year old little girl who has lost both of her parents in the wrong season of life.
Thunderstorms in January.
I fell to sleep last night to the sound of thunder and with this sweet little girl on my heart.
Life does not make sense sometimes.
What do we do in this mixed-up seasons?
I think there's only one answer.
We go to Him who created winter, spring, summer, and fall, and we simply say, "Be enough, Lord."
Be enough when flowers bloom, when leaves turn and fall, when ice and snow appear, and when blossoms reappear.
Be enough even in those seasons when it feels as if one thing should be happening (like snow falling), yet we are facing something unexpected (like a thunderstorm).
"Be enough, Creator of the Seasons."
Paul struggled with a weakness in his flesh that he did not understand. He begged for healing. He begged for this "thorn in the flesh" to be taken away. And yet, God replied,
"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."
II Cor. 12;9
I don't know what you are facing on this Monday morning in January.
Maybe there is beautiful, white snow falling in your life and everything feels "right" for winter.
Maybe you're not sure what today will even hold.
And maybe, just maybe, you are hearing thunder and it doesn't make sense.
Whatever the case, please remember,
God is enough. He is sufficient. He will carry you through the snow and the storms….no matter the season.
New Deodorant and Other Concerns……..
January 21st, 2012
Although a health issue like needing to find a new deodorant is not my usual topic choice, I feel the need this afternoon to share that I am definitely in search of some new magic formula. I realized this morning that you know your Saturday is somewhat "free" when that is one of the top things on your list of "things to do" after finishing lesson plans and straightening the house.
There's something about having a faint odor that brings back memories of your grandpa after he's had a hard day of work on the farm that makes you realize something is "just not right." Especially when the toughest thing I've done today is clean up a few puppy accidents around the house.
Which brings me to another concern at the Nischan house.
Somehow I have exchanged the hectic schedule of running five kids all over the world for a somewhat quiet house filled with dogs!
While Snoopy and Peppy are quite old and honestly not a lot of trouble (except that they smell almost as offensive as I do at times, and they seem to need to come inside and/or go outside at the same time I decide to get comfortable with a cup of coffee and a book), Dash and Domino are struggling to understand the idea of potty training.
Mom and Dad were here for Christmas; and when Dad saw the puppy pad in the laundry room, his comment was, "So, you're training them to go on the floor." I laughed and said, "Actually, I think you're right." And you know what? He is right!
Here's the problem:
Our back yard does have a fence, but it goes up to the top of our hill where there must be small places to escape, so taking the puppies outside EVERY TIME they need to do their little thing is very stressful. Seeing the pups disappear up into the trees and then wondering whether or not they will return is a little more than I can take three or four or one hundred times a day, depending on how often they need attention.
So, we are trying puppy pads, but I am about to give up on this style even if it's winter and even if it means multiple adrenaline rushes every single day as I hope the puppies will return after a little potty outing.
The main reason I believe it is time to try something else is this:
I had a dream this week that was way too real and left me feeling a little rattled.
I am going to share this dream at the risk of losing you all as friends (if sharing my need for new deodorant or my rant with my kids yesterday about wearing their retainers wasn't enough- by the way, I never had the nerve to ask my kids to read that post, so I am counting on God to lead them here, I guess).
Before I share the dream, let me give a little background on my mental state.
I am reading a book with my class right now called Hunger Games. Maybe you have heard of it. I've never seen a book take a high school age group by storm in such a powerful way as this book is doing. Kids have been asking for the sequels for Christmas and birthday gifts from their parents. They have been sneaking and reading ahead and talking about the book in conversations as if it's part of their normal life to have book discussions.
The reality, though, is that this book is fairly violent. Much more violent than anything I've ever read. I'm not a scary movie person. I'm not a thriller-book person. In fact, my son Evan has said several times, "I just can't believe you like that book, Mom. It doesn't seem like you at all."
I think it's seeing the kids so "into" a novel that has made me love the book. It is well-written and has lots of suspense. But, again, it is violent and my mind doesn't do violence very well.
At the same time, a house with four dogs is more than crazy; and at school I often think of our house and kind-of shutter as I realize that as I walk in, I will one again be greeted by a stinky laundry room that needs a deep clean..in spite of the glorious puppy pad protection.
I say all of that to say this, "I think (hope) my dream stemmed from a combination of a violent book and a house that is putting me over the edge."
Cy, please don't hate me, because honestly, Peppy is my biggest buddy. He's sleeping at my feet right this minute. He follows me everywhere I go and whimpers until he is right by my side in the chair.
But in my dream, we were playing a board game and on each person's turn they had to do something. On my turn, and I cringe as I say this, "I shot Peppy." Yes, I shot my dog. It was awful. I woke up and saw Peppy and felt so guilty, so evil, so warped.
This dream has been haunting me, along with my need for new hygiene supplies, and I decided this morning that writing it all out of my system might be my only escape from my thoughts.
So, I am going to click "publish," and then I am going to sit back and cringe and hope that I still have at least one friend.
I am also going to hope that someone gives me a suggestion for a favorite antiperspirant-deodorant and/or a puppy-training secret.
If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth.
But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.
If we claim we have not sinned, we are calling God a liar and showing that his word has no place in our hearts.
I John 1:8-10
For now I am going to embrace the freedom that follows confession and try to enjoy my Saturday,
Wear Your Retainers! Please!
January 20th, 2012
In four years of blogging, I have never used my forum to speak to my children. However, this morning I felt this nudge to say something to all four of them publicly that I believe has a lesson in it for all of us. So, I write this not so much for the "retainer" lesson but more for the "spiritual lesson" entwined within it. Honestly, teeth are such a small issue on the scale of life………but our soul……………..that is no small issue.
So, bear with me for just a few minutes as I write as a desperate mom.
Erich, Evan, Todd, and Olivia,
I know that you have grown weary of me asking you if you are wearing your retainers. I know that many times your answer is "no," and I tend to seem a little ruffled and disappointed. I also know that in the scheme of life, wearing your retainers isn't the most important aspect of successful living. Believe me, I would much rather know you are reading your Bible, sharing your heart with God, and putting Him first in every decision you make.
However, I do feel a sense of passion about your retainers and here is why:
Your dad and I made monthly payments for YEARS so that you could have straight teeth. We could have chosen a new car, a driveway that isn't crumbling, a fence without termites, but we chose YOUR TEETH instead and we are happy with our decision…….until we hear you're not wearing your retainers!
Your dad and I spent hours on the road driving back and forth to the dentist, sitting in waiting rooms so that you would not miss any of your every 6-week appointments. We took days off of work to keep these appointments, and we are thankful for every minute with you……..until we hear you're not wearing your retainers!
But the biggest reason I am begging you is this:
I have met too many adults who have said to me, "I wish I would have listened to my parents and dentist and worn my retainers, because my teeth have moved and now I can't get my retainers on anymore."
So, after I call each of you and for the first time ever ask you to read my blog, I am officially done asking (I hope I can keep this promise.). You are on your own to live with the consequences of choosing NOT to wear the simple device that keeps your teeth aligned. I hope that every night as you crawl into bed there will be a nagging voice (mine) somewhere in the recesses of your memory asking you the question for me, "Are you wearing your retainers?" I hope the voice haunts you; and if you forget to wear your retainers for just two or three nights, I hope it hurts a bit when you put them back on so that you will realize how quickly your teeth can move out of line. I hope this pain is a warning not to forget again. I love you all so much. More than words could ever express. I'm proud of you. I pray for you every single day more than once. I want you all to live FULL God-filled lives where you bring Him glory in everything you do. I want you to feel a purpose every morning when you wake up, and I want you to feel God's presence on the good days and the bad. But, as a shallow mom, I also want you to wear your retainers. Please.
Now that I've gotten that off my chest, I want to say this to my kids and to all of you who stop by to read today.
God, as our Father, left us with retainers.
His Words and the Holy Spirit.
He left them so that we would have a guide, something and Someone to keep us on the straight and narrow.
If we keep our Bible on a shelf or nightstand, it is just as effective as my kids' retainers are in their case.
We have to open it, read it, apply it, pray over it, love it, live by it………..
God sacrificed so much so that we could have the message of Hope that comes from His Word.
I think it has to hurt Him when we don't choose to spend time learning more about Him and turning to Him for guidance and direction.
I am guilty often, and, believe me, I have felt the pain of trying to live without Him as my daily guide.
I don't want that for any of you.
Today, we may not need physical retainers in our life, but I do believe we all need spiritual retainers.
Please don't forget to wear them!
Proverbs 4:11-12
I guide you in the way of wisdom
and lead you along straight paths.
When you walk, your steps will not be hampered;
when you run, you will not stumble.
Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight.
Praying for all of you today,
Minutes Matter……….
January 19th, 2012
There's nothing new about the reality the statement that "every minute matters," but some mornings the clock ticks in a way that makes you keenly aware of this truth.
How long you take drying your hair, how long it takes to pick out clothes, routine tasks become stealers of minutes that often pass unnoticed.
Unexpected things like a missing PD certification form that sent me hunting online for thirty minutes until I could recover it pushed my morning ahead quickly, causing me to move in a robotic fast motion, a speed I lived in for way too long and a speed I do not miss.
Now, the clock is screaming, "You need to be on the road in 12 minutes, heading to your appointment in Ashland. Don't be late."
And I breathe and think, "WAIT!"
I refuse to let these few minutes slip by wastefully.
So I wanted to share a little something I discovered this morning when reading in Genesis.
I was caught by the words that Jacob said to Joseph on his death bed. He requested that his body be taken back to Canaan to be buried after he died and told Joseph of the great sorrow he had experienced when he had been forced to bury Rachel on the road to Ephrath (which is Bethlehem).
My mind is fascinated with the thought that Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus, was right there in the midst of all of these Old Testament stories. I wonder if Mary and Joseph ever told the story of their ancestors to Jesus and said, "And Rachel was buried very near your birthplace."
I wonder if Jesus grinned as he heard them talk about Canaan and how important it was to the Israelites. How it was their Promised Land.
And I just wonder if he ever talked to Mary and explained things more clearly so that she understood a little bit more about what was going to happen in the future than we get to read in Scriptures.
Today, we are all on a journey to the Promised Land, aren't we?
Christmas is a wonderful time, but let's don't die near Bethlehem, simply embracing the story of Jesus' birth.
Let's push on toward Easter and grasp the power of the resurrection!
Today, let every minute matter.
Each of them leads us forward toward Canaan.
Thankful for each of you,

Following the example of our Foundress, Pauline von Mallinckrodt, the communities of Sisters of Christian Charity in Germany seek to live her charism by following Jesus' words: "This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you." [John 15:12]
As Sisters of Christian Charity, our call is to witness to and share in the mission of Jesus by letting His love so permeate and fill us that our love overflows to all by being Bread Broken and Wine Poured Out.
Our mission in Quezon City, Philippines, reflects Blessed Pauline's first ministry, focuses on poor and abandoned blind girls at the Margaretha Home for the Blind.

Hi loves!
It's no secret that I love blogging. This hobby makes me feel so inspired and happy, and it has changed my life for the better. I live with more intention; I approach my day with a "Can I blog about this?" attitude. It gives me a purpose, I've made friends, and it has changed the way I view the world.
I have been blogging since April 2017. After months of planning, photographing, writing, and editing blog posts, I am taking a moment to remember why I started.
I want Heavenlee Penny's to be a place where readers can come to find inspiration and happiness. I want my blog posts to make someone smile. I want to share my experiences and ideas with the world.
I never set numerical goals; I never had any intention of generating revenue; I created Heavenlee Penny's purely because I have a passion for writing and communicating with others.
Because I created my website for the right reasons, every small victory is a monumental success in my eyes. Every like; every comment; every email. Those moments mean everything to me.
Thank you for stopping by and scrolling through my posts. The blogging community is so supportive. While I had my own reasons for starting blogging, my readers are why I continue. I love you guys!
If you're a blogger and you'd like to share your story of why you created your blog, leave a comment! I would love to read your story. 🙂
Thank you for reading!

Under Twitter's hood
The beauty of Twitter is its simplicity and atomicity. It's a WYSIWYG service – very little of its complexity is hidden. Most of Twitter's auxiliary functionality was not invented – it organically grew out of the user community. Take retweets, direct messages, replies and mentions, for example. All these started as text cues users left each other in messages, without any preconceived design from the Architectures of Twitter.
Therein lies its beauty.
This does, however, imply that there might not be a lot of information in each tweet. This is not entirely true.
Recently we have built a simple Twitter application that displays all available extra information. It serves us as a quick reference of what is available, how many people are using it, etc. Kind of like a brainstorming tool (Click on the orange triangles to expand extra info about users and tweets).
Some of the fields of extra information are quite interesting, and deserve a spot of lateral thinking:
user: followers_count, friends_count, status_count, list_count – how does this reflect user influence?
These four counters form an interesting picture about a user's online activity. The really exciting part is the idea that a user's online influence, or rank, could be determined from these, and possible a few other, parameters. The magic algorithm to using these parameters to calculate a user's online success still eludes everyone who tries to do it – at least to a certain degree.
The most success so far have been achieved by the Twitter influence calculation service, Klout. They calculate their klout score using these, and more than 20 other parameters, in a secret mathematical soup recipe, to produce an influence metric.
in_reply_to_status_id and Twitter conversations
While it is possible to reply to tweets without setting this field, most clients do set this field when a user replies to a tweet. It makes it possible to trace entire conversation threads, and display it as such. The Twitter user experience thus becomes multi-dimensional.
Conversation metrics also play a large role in determining a user's online influence – the more a user is retweeted, the higher their online influence is (that is the assumption – like I said, this is still largely untamed territory).
coordinates and place: geolocation
Geolocation tends to open a whole new wonderworld of usability and social gaming. The current leaders in this field, utilizing their own network, is Foursquare. having said that, both Twitter and Facebook have recently jumped on the places bandwagon, making it possible to build something like Foursquare entirely on the Twitter or Facebook platform.
While many twitter clients are starting to use Twitter's geolocation fields to display a user's location on a map, the real potential lies in the gameability and utility unlocked by geolocation.
It's becoming clear that there is a lot more potential in Twitter's data than its simplicity seems to imply. Add to this the possibility of adding metrics, like klout score, and the possible future of user defined, service specific parameters, and the amount of data per user or tweet might actually grow exponentially over time.
The crowd that we have recently come accross that shows the most promise in harvesting the potential of all this data, is Datasift. They have yet to launch their product though, so for the moment, the potential grows by the day.

Today went pretty well. Although I didn't sell any quilts I sold a lot of the smaller items. Enough that I made the same about this year as last year. Some of the items I hadn't sold in the previous year sold this year also. So all in all it was a good day. There were more people this year then last so the day went by fast. I treated myself to dinner at the Lodge at the Park and was home to greet Carlie by 7PM. Things are packed away and I'm now brain dead and looking forward to a good nights sleep :-0
Tomorrow I have to start putting the various eye medications into my eye in preparation for cataract surgery I'm having Wednesday so I need to keep myself "relaxed, calm and non stressed" so I'm going to try to keep my brain shut off for another couple of days! Having the Craft Fair helped me not think about that :-)

Anyway, I went to bed late and woke up early at 5:15 so I could get into the office and get a jump on the things I needed to do before my lecture. I got to the office at 6:15 and had blissful peace for close to an hour and a half. I wrote some student award bios and got my lecture ready.
Someone else was lecturing for the first hour, and went 20 minutes over. Normally it would be a problem, but my lecture was pretty short, and we got done on time. My students gave me a round of applause at the end of the lecture, to acknowledge that we were done for the semester. From here on out it is studying, tutoring and tests.
I came home and took a nap, and felt like I was caught up again.
This is an old orchid that my brother-in-law brought for me on Thanksgiving. The original bulbs came from my grandfather's garden years ago. Paul took them home and they have been growing on his patio ever since. I was surprised and touched that he brought these to me. I hope I don't kill them.
My new camera arrived late this afternoon, and I spent the evening reading the manual (150+ pages) and figuring out the basics. One of the coolest things about it is that it has a built in level. I have a tendency to tilt the camera a few degrees to the left, and this will let me know when I am doing that. The other cool thing is that I can control it wirelessly with a phone app. Hopefully some time this week I can get some time to go out and play around with it a bit. Winter break starts in 15 days, so I will have plenty of time to figure it out then.

My kids love it when I plant herbs in the garden – the idea of eating the leaves of a plant is exciting for them. I placed a small box outside the window of our kitchen that only contains herbs – when we need seasoning for our meals the girls can open the window and clip fresh herbs for us. They really enjoy this job.

Artist statement
Claire J Kendrick has launched a contemporary body of work that brings a fresh, modern approach to figure painting. She credits time and experience working with Anne Packard and her daughter, Cynthia Packard, for the growth in her work. There is a freedom and energy in the way she applies paint and builds the paintings in this series as she pushes the boundaries towards abstract.
Study of the human figure has long been at the heart of traditional education in the arts as it shows a real commitment to painting. As an artist, it is possible to break free of strict rules and express more than just a form. There is an opportunity to express energy and vitality in your subject without drawing every detail. Bringing expression and a heartbeat to the painting that is two dimensional, these paintings want to speak.
"The dialogue is something I strive for–what is spoken and what is left unspoken–it's the tension and energy between the painting and the private dialogue–the interpretation of the viewer(s)–their need to fill in the gaps.Body language is the unspoken dialogue."
Claire paints landscape, still life and figurative paintings. Originally from Ireland, she worked in the fashion industry in Europe before she relocated to Florida in 2006. From a family of architects and designers, it seems that artistic expression, a love of design, and an eye for detail have enriched her life as a painter.
Claire J Kendrick is an artist whose paintings reflect Florida landscapes with bold, rich, beautiful colors. Collectors respond to the contemporary style and the expressive way in which she paints. The big open vistas and the marsh views that stretch for miles are amongst her favorite places to be.
"This is a hot climate and colorful coast it's a joy to live here. I love the expanse of the marshlands, the big cloudscapes, the scenery is dramatic and I try to express that in my paintings. When you're out painting in these isolated places it feels like you have the world to yourself. The subtle shifts of light can in a moment calm or energize the environment. The paintings on exhibition are color sensations, passionate responses, and magical experiences."
She grew up in the Irish countryside and as a child explored painting "en plein air" with local artists. One of her first exhibitions of landscape paintings was at the age of fifteen.
"Artists need to have a vision, they have to be fearless and sometimes challenge uncharted territory. It's having the strength of character to forge ahead with an idea or concept way before the consensus of approval. It's about taking time to see the beauty and potential in a fast paced life."
Living on the east coast of the United States I look out on the Atlantic Ocean and I'm challenged as an artist to capture its vastness. The high seas and big storm fronts remind me of my native home, Ireland, the North West Outpost of Europe. Those memories combined with the ferociousness of the weather fronts brings a depth and passion to my work, yet the stillness and peace of the southern shores is a soothing calm and is both a joy and quest to capture as a plein air and studio painter.
Symbolically the ocean is a sign of power and strength, due to its immensity. Observing and painting the great power of the ocean and its weather fronts is much like having a front row seat at the theater. As a plein air painter there is an urgency and need to capture the essence of your vista – it's sparked by emotion and energy. Then the atmosphere and weather of the outdoors adds to the paintings aliveness. All this –- the vigor of life is to be conveyed onto a canvas. It is a love, and a challenge.
"The vistas of possibility are only limited by the shortness of life."
(Winston Churchill)
When we think of botanical paintings, traditional, detailed paintings come to mind. This series of paintings explores the delicate, radiant, beauty of plants and flowers in a contemporary style.
"It is my practice to always work with reference. I like to buy fresh flowers and set up the arrangement and start with a strong composition. This is always my foundation. As I begin painting, each brush stroke has to say something. Putting down a mark and deciding to keep or remove, I try to ask myself if this mark adds something to the painting. The results are dynamic, energetic forms–they show the energy you put into the painting. The still life floral paintings have a life and vitality."
Pushing boundaries, Claire takes the paintings outdoors and uses a blow torch to melt wax mixed with oil paint, giving a free-flow effect which she then decides to manipulate or leave. This is a process of constant editing, painting, taking away then reapplying paint or wax, building the image slowly in layers.
"You should paint as you live life; expression should be in your work. See the things of beauty you enjoy and fill your life with that energy."

The attack on the Republican establishment by the tea party folks grabs the gaze like a really bad horror flick some version of "Hee Haw" meets "28 Days Later." It's fascinating. But it also raises a serious question: Are these the desperate thrashings of a dying movement or the labor pains of a new one?
My money is on the former. Anyone who says that this is the dawn of a new age of conservatism is engaging in wishful thinking on a delusional scale.
There is no doubt that the number of people who say that they are conservative has inched up. According to a report from Gallup on Thursday, conservatives finished 2009 as the No. 1 ideological group. But ideological identification is no predictor of electoral outcomes. According to polls by The New York Times, conservative identification was slightly higher on the verge of Bill Clinton's first-term election and Barack Obama's election than it was on the verge of George W. Bush's first-term election.
It is likely that Republicans will pick up Congressional seats in November partly because of the enthusiasm of this conservative fringe, democratic apathy and historical trends. But make no mistake: This is not 1994.
This is a limited, emotional reaction. It's a response to the trauma that is the Great Recession, the uncertainty and creeping suspicion about the risks being taken in Washington, a visceral reaction to Obama and an overwhelming sense of powerlessness and loss.
Simply put, it's about fear-fueled anger. But anger is not an idea. It's not a plan. And it's not a vision for the future. It is, however, the second stage of grief, right after denial and before bargaining.
The right is on the wrong side of history. The demographics of the country are rapidly changing, young people are becoming increasingly liberal on social issues, and rigid, dogmatic religious stricture is loosening its grip on the throat of our culture.
The right has seen the enemy, and he is the future.
According to a Gallup report issued this week, Republicans were more than twice as likely as Democrats and a third more likely as independents to have a pessimistic outlook for the country over the next 20 years. That might be the fourth stage of grief: depression.
So what's their battle plan to fight back from the precipice of irrelevance? Moderation? A stab at modernity? A slate of innovative ideas? No, their plan is to purge the party's moderates and march farther down the road to oblivion.
Erick Erickson, the incendiary editor of the popular conservative blog RedState, appeared on "The Colbert Report" on Monday and said that "no one really knows what a Republican is anymore."
Split hairs about labels if you must, but the Republican brand already has begun a slow slide into obscurity. And turning further right only hastens its demise. Quiet as it's kept, many in the party know this. That, alas, is called acceptance.

Melvin J. Ballard Quotes
It is my judgment that any man or woman can do more to conform to the laws of God in one year in this life than they could do in ten years when they are dead. The spirit can only repent and change, and then the battle has to go forward with the flesh afterwards. It is much easier to overcome and serve the Lord when both flesh and spirit are combined as one. This is the time when men are more pliable and susceptible. We will find when we are dead every desire, every feeling will be greatly intensified. When clay is pliable it is much easier to change than when it gets hard and sets.
The greatest mission of woman is to give life, earth-life, through honorable marriage, to the waiting spirits, our Father's spirit children who anxiously desire to come to dwell here in this mortal state. All the honor and glory that can come to men and women is but a dim thing whose luster shall fade in comparison to the high honor, the eternal glory, the ever-enduring happiness that shall come to the woman who fulfils the first great duty and mission that devolves upon her to become the mother of the sons and daughters of God
It is a Mormon truism that is current among us and we all accept it, that as man is God once was and as God is man may become. That does not signify that man will become God. I am sorry to say, and yet it is a truth, that not many men will become what God is, simply because they will not pay the price, because they are not willing to live up to the requirements; and still all men may, if they will, become what God is, but only those who are heirs of the celestial glory shall ever be possible candidates, to become what God is.

It's been a while since I've done a "Makeup Wars", but with so many good cream and liquid highlighter releases to share, it was time! I've found myself reaching for a highlighter every day, regardless of the formula…powder, cream or liquid. I love the luminizing affect on my skin.
From an "impact" standpoint, BECCA has had a huge influence on my highlighting routine this past year. The release of the Champagne Pop Collection (review) helped me rediscover the brand. From that collection, the Shimmering Skin Perfector Liquid and the Shimmering Skin Perfector Poured Creme are both still favorites. The Champagne Pop color is perfect, regardless of the formula I choose, always gives a beautiful bright finish to my overall look.
The Algenist REVEAL Concentrated Luminizing Drops have various shades of pigments, plus luminizing pearls. The Champagne (gold), Pearl (silver) and Rose (pink) feel like a serum, can color-correct, and has Alguronic Acid in the anti-aging formula. I love these drops; of the various liquid formula highlighters I have, I would consider this one the most subtle. Because this is subtle, I don't find it necessary to mix into a foundation or moisturizer. Just apply, blend and go!
For the most bold look or for strobing, I'd pick the COVER | FX Custom Enhancer Drops. I like the Moonlight shade, which is a soft silver-champagne shade. If applying directly on top of your makeup or skin isn't your thing, these can be mixed into foundation or moisturizer. There are five additional shades; I have all of them and they're amazing.
New from Maybelline, the FaceStudio Master Strobing Liquid Illuminating Highlighter is a budget-friendly way to try out a liquid highlighter. Although this is called a liquid, I consider it a cream formula. You can control the amount of highlighting effect by building coverage. Three shades (Light, Medium and Deep) are available.
One of my favorite new M∙A∙C products is the Studio Quiktrik Stick. This is a double-ended stick in various combinations…highlight/contour. highlight/blush, blush/bronzer, etc. I have Softly Does It/Tight and Tawny, which has a slight pink shimmer highlighter on one side, a light taupe shade on the other for a soft contour. I reach for this frequently, and it's perfectly portable for travel. Love!
Because I couldn't possibly name ALL my favorite cream and liquid highlighters, I'll point you in the direction of other posts you can check out:

In many WordPress multi-author blogs, you may see a gravatar image of the author near the title of the post. It helps readers easily distinguish the author of the post. Although Quick Web Resources is a single author blog, I also used to show the author image even in post loops. By default, most of the themes show author bio below the post content but not in the post loops and home page.
Most of the themes and frameworks now support this and show author gravatar image icon near the title of the post. But what if your theme does not support this feature? I saw many blogger searching for the plugins to add this kind of author photo feature. But, you do not need to worry about this. You can do this without using any kind of plugin.
Read: How to Split a Single WordPress Post into Multiple Pages
Just put this code where you want to show the author gravatar photo.
<?php echo get_avatar( get_the_author_email(), '48' ); ?>
This code is simple to understand. get_the_author_email() function fetches the email of the author and get_avatar() function puts the gravatar image of the author. Number 48 is the size of the image in pixels. You can change it according to the space available in your design format.
Be sure to create a gravatar account and then upload your picture before using this. Gravatar is known as the globally recognized avatar. Not just WordPress but many services use this. If you have not added a photo to gravatar, it will show default gravatar photo in place of your photo. So create an account there and upload a photo of you. Not just on your website, but this gravatar image will also be shown in blogs where you comment or write guest articles.

Genre: Young Adult / Realistic Fiction
Page Count: 352 pages
Publication Date: October 2007
Goodreads summary:
You can't stop the future.
You can't rewind the past.
The only way to learn the secret . . . is to press play.
Clay Jensen returns home from school to find a strange package with his name on it lying on his porch. Inside he discovers several cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker–his classmate and crush–who committed suicide two weeks earlier. Hannah's voice tells him that there are thirteen reasons why she decided to end her life. Clay is one of them. If he listens, he'll find out why.
Clay spends the night crisscrossing his town with Hannah as his guide. He becomes a firsthand witness to Hannah's pain, and as he follows Hannah's recorded words throughout his town, what he discovers changes his life forever.
My thoughts:
Disclaimer: I have NOT seen Netflix's adaptation of Thirteen Reasons Why. I have only listened to the story on audiobook through my library's app, Overdrive.
This book has been sooo hyped since Netflix announced it's screen adaptation, that I was a little surprised when I found this book has been around for 10 years! TEN years!
I was going through Overdrive a couple of days ago, looking for a short audiobook to listen to over the weekend, when I stumbled onto this massively hyped up book. I have to say that, despite the hype, it was surprisingly good! I mean, it wasn't the best book of the month or anything like that, but it was still a good story.
The book was extremely compelling, and because it's so short you can devour it in one or two sittings (The audiobook is about 6 hours long). The characters seemed realistic and most were unlikable, but I supposed that was done on purpose. After all, we're supposed to see Hannah Baker, the girl who committed suicide, as the victim. Since most of the other characters contributed to her final act, and we see them through Hannah's eyes, it's not surprising that they come off as being the worst kind of people out there.
It was an engrossing story. A page-turner, if I had read the book in physical format, I'm sure. But if you're going to read Thirteen Reasons Why I'd recommend you listen to the audiobook. It's brilliant! It's narrated by two different actors, one who plays Clay (the guy listening to the tapes and reacting to them throughout the story) and another who plays Hannah Baker (the girl who recorded the tapes before committing suicide).
Despite all that, I'm not sure I would recommend this book to young readers (ie. teens) or people who might be having suicidal thoughts. Thirteen Reasons Why glamorises suicide. There, I said it.
It shows suicide as an easy way out and as a reasonable strategy to deal with your problems, and that's just wrong. There will always be people out there who want to help. Just like Hannah had Clay, she didn't think he was interested in helping her but in reality he was desperate to get closer and make her happy. He genuinely cared for her. She was just so absorbed with everything else going on around her that she didn't notice him, trying to be there for her.
Especially since the target audience for this book is so young and impressionable (I'm not undermining teens in any way. That's not my intention) I know most teens wouldn't end their lives just because of a book they read, BUT if someone is already thinking along those lines this may very well be that last nudge they need to actually go through with it. So, I would be extra cautious before recommending this book to just anyone.
Overall, I have mixed feelings about Thirteen Reasons Why. Especially because I, as the reader, was supposed to empathise with Hannah Baker and see her as a victim, which just didn't really happen. More often than not I felt she was judgemental and bratty (Is that even a word?), but that's just my opinion.
All I'll say is, read it at your own risk.

At the end of September 2013 The Occasional Print Club held their 7th meeting deep down in the basement of Kulturwerk des BBK in Kreuzberg, Berlin, a grand building in Mariannenplatz that was formerly a Prussian hospital. In attendance this time were myself, Thomas Mayo, Patrick Randle and Ross Shaw.
The Print Studio at KBBK contains an impressive collection of continental letterpress type, some woodletter, an iron handpress and two large-format relief proofing presses – a gargantuan Korrex press manufactured by Max Simmel in Hamburg and a smaller FAG Control proof press.
After acquainting ourselves with the studio and the unfamiliar German typecase-layout, we set to work designing and typesetting, aware that we had less than 48 hours in which to create our next project. We were spoilt for choice with the array of metal types available and, after a fairly brief discussion of ideas, we decided to use as many of the typefaces available in our design, typeset to form the shape of a lowercase blackletter 'b' – 'b' for Berlin.
After one and half days of intensive typesetting briefly interrupted by a visit to the studio of master papermaker Gangolf Ulbricht, along the corridor, we had transferred all of the type from settings sticks & galleys to the bed of the FAG proofing press. After locking the forme up, we took a first pull of the poster and after correcting a handful of typo's, wrong-founts and spelling errors we turned our attention to choosing a colour scheme for the posters. We chose to print half of the edition in black and green with the remainder printed in red and green.
After printing late into the evening, we sought sanctuary in a nearby bar with hearty German fare and some celebratory Maßkrug's of local beer.
Limited to 50 copies and printed onto 100gsm Zerkall paper in two colours, copies this poster can be purchased here.

Adding a pet—no matter what the species—should be done thoughtfully, with careful consideration to the needs of the whole family," says Pavlides.
Roanoke, VA (PRWEB) August 03, 2012
A study released today indicates that the addition of a pet to the household may help autistic children develop skills. This empirical research backs up what many working in the field of human-animal interactions have known for a long time. For some children with autism, interacting with companion, therapy, or service animals can be life-changing. Merope Pavlides, author of "Animal-assisted Interventions for Individuals with Autism," urges families to think carefully, however, about how to best involve animals in their child's life.
"Sometimes a study like this can drive families to act hastily," Pavlides notes. "Adding a pet—no matter what the species—should be done thoughtfully, with careful consideration to the needs of the whole family." Pavlides, a special educator and dog trainer, has worked with many special needs families. She recently conducted a webinar through the Association of Pet Dog Trainers to help dog trainers work more effectively with autistic children, and will be writing a series of articles for "The Chronicle of the Dog" on this topic.
"People who work with autistic kids and animals often see amazing progress in their clients," Pavlides says. "For some children—and adults—on the autism spectrum, engaging with an animal can open up channels of communication and interaction that were previously closed. That said, not all autistic people are going to find animal interactions helpful or even pleasant. For some, sensory issues triggered by proximity to animals can be overwhelming."
How can you tell if getting a pet for your child is the right choice? "There are lots of ways to test out your child's responsiveness to animals," Pavlides says. "Many therapy animal groups provide opportunities for children with disabilities to interact with pets. Consider how your child responds to pets he or she comes into contact with in the family or neighborhood."
In addition, it's important to think about how the pet will fit into structure of the family as a whole. "Adding a pet to the family is a huge responsibility," says Pavlides. "For some families, a pet can help 'normalize' family life, provide siblings with a bridge to engage with their autistic brother or sister, and provide the autistic child with what's referred to as 'social capital'—being more accepted by peers. However, for other families—who may already be overwhelmed by workload and expenses—having a pet adds unwelcome stress."
Pavlides recommends doing research before obtaining a pet, which may include consulting a trainer. "Animal shelters are filled with pets that weren't successful in their families' homes," she notes. "Being thoughtful in embarking on pet ownership is in the best interest of everyone, including the pet." She also urges considering other animal-assisted interventions, such as therapeutic riding.
In addition to her work with animals, Pavlides currently edits the website Autism After 16. Autism After 16 is a website devoted to providing information and analysis of adult autism issues. Over 50 percent of its contributing writers are autistic adults, while many others are family members. Autism After 16 provides informational articles on accessing adult services, commentary, links to useful resources, and a library of videos to help teach independent living skills.

Last night we actually ended up at Pioneer Valley – AGAIN, instead of a night of relaxation and Twilight with my nursing wee one, I got to have around 8-10 anxiety attacks after leaving my girl, feeling inadequate, having no idea what was wrong with me or what the pains meant, and of course… steering a different path than the one that my (lately) sensitive brain had already set into place for the night.
Turns out I had a galbladder attack, and chances are, the similar pain I had about 2 weeks ago that lasted a little over 5 minutes was the same thing. Well, except this one was about an 8-9 on the pain scale and lasted for 20 minutes at that level, then going down to a residual lower level pain from about 8pm to after 10pm. Which compared to the level 8-9 pain, I tolerated it. Fun stuff. I don't recommend it. I'll update more when I know more, but for now… happy photos! These are from when Dad, Tanya, and Gma visited us this month.

The Goal: An intricately constructed, multi-meringued Austrian delicacy.
The Source: Spanische Windtorte
Greetings, people who understand what is best in life! Today, prepare yourself for seeing the word "meringue" a lot. In fact, I'll desensitize you right now. Meringue meringue meringue!
This is a new and interesting dish you might recognize from one of my favorite shows, the Great British Baking Show. I started by thinking I wanted to create a dish that highlighted different types of meringues, and immediately I remembered this one! It involves a French meringue, which is raw beaten egg whites, sugar, and cream of tartar. Additionally, the recipe uses a Swiss meringue, which is created by cooking egg whites and sugar over a pot of simmering water until the sugar dissolves, then taking off the heat and continuing to whisk until it is fluffy and white. I've always found the different types of meringues fascinating, so I had a lot of fun with this recipe, despite how fiddly it was.
I'll be honest with you, the first time I tried this recipe, I made a huge error. I was out of parchment paper, and attempted to bake my first French meringues on wax paper. I know, elementary. For the recipe you are required to pipe out and bake five circles of meringue, but unfortunately they stuck to the wax paper, and I crumbled them all to bits when attempting to remove them.
I was so despairing of my poor crumbled babies that I forgot to take pictures of the disaster, so as far as you're all concerned, this is a fresh slate! The first step: Making the bones of the cake.
Once it looks right and has come to stiff peaks, get ready for some sticky piping fun. There are a few methods you could use for this process, and mine was simple. I found a bowl around the right size, flipped it over, and traced circles in pencil on the parchment paper. Parchment paper. Not wax paper (you fool). Then pipe following the lines with a star nozzle.
After baking at a low temperature for about forty-five minutes, the meringues should be crispy on the outside, and still white, perhaps a gentle ivory, but no more browned than that. Once they are cool, use the remaining French meringue to stack all the hoops on top of each other. This creates a cake shape – and pandemonium! Definitely be careful, as each hoop was extremely delicate. I suffered a bit of collapse at this stage, so I think if I were to make it a third time, I would pipe the middle hoops more thickly to give them more support.
When you've finished stacking, and smoothing the outsides with more meringue, bake for another 45 minutes. While that was baking, I went ahead and made the Swiss meringue. This is a softer, much more marshamallowy meringue, not intended to be crispy. Use this as a decoration to pretty up the sides and top of your windtorte. In my case, I used it in large swirling patterns to cover the cracked bits on the sides, and to augment the decorations on the top. You can also see how the fresh Swiss meringue is a little lighter in color than the baked French meringue below. If this bothers you, just make sure to cover as much surface area with the Swiss meringue as possible. Then, bake it again!
While the almost completed windtorte was baking a final time, I put the finishing touches on the flowers. Traditionally they would be violets, but I didn't have the right colors for violets – and besides, inventing new flowers is more fun! I found a method of making fondant roses which was astonishingly easy. I bought a box of pre-made vanilla fondant from my local grocery store, and colored two lumps of it with blue and green food coloring. Then I took a little nob of blue fondant and shaped it into a cone to form the center of the flower. Then, cut out teardrop shapes of fondant, thin with your fingertips, and wrap around the center cone in offset layers, until you have something resembling a rose! I don't have a petal shaped cutter, so I just took a large piping tip and bent it so the opening was shaped as a teardrop. An easy shortcut to save a few bucks, why not? You can use the same cutter for the petals, and the leaves.
I set the flowers and leaves to dry on top of a container in which I keep all of my decorating tips. This helped give the leaves a little bit of bend and curve, like real ones! Also, it kept my flowers from falling over.
Once all your various parts and sugary bits are complete, all that's left is the delicious filling, and assembly! The filling couldn't be better, and it's simple! Just whipped cream, strawberries, and raspberries – add a little sugar, if you like it sweeter, but the meringue all around makes it sweet enough for me.
Finally, spoon the filling inside the windtorte, and place the lid gently on top. There you have it, folks! The end result is a crispy, crunchy French meringue with a little bit of chewiness inside… a soft, marshmallowy Swiss meringue around the outside… and all of it filled with the ultimate combination of tart fruit and cream.
Absolutely. Delicious.
This is a dish to impress your friends and family, with the little flowers as an easy touch to make it special. I wouldn't recommend it for when you're in a hurry, but if you ever have a long, luxurious day of cookery and crafting, this is the recipe for you. I will probably make it again, and try to conquer those pesky hoops.
I'm coming for you, hoops! Soon…

21st Century Fox Inc.'s bid for Sky Plc will be weighed by European Union regulators after the UK merger watchdog passed up the chance of reviewing the 11.7 billion-pound ($14.6 billion) deal, according to two people familiar with the probe.
The UK's Competition and Markets Authority isn't expected to ask the European Commission to hand over the antitrust review of the transaction before a Friday cut-off date, said the people, who asked not to be named because details of the probe aren't public. EU regulators now have an April 7 deadline to decide whether to approve it.
The antitrust investigation, which examines the economic power of a deal, is separate from another UK inquiry to decide whether the takeover breaches British rules on media plurality and broadcasting standards. The EU unconditionally cleared a News Corp. takeover of Sky in 2010, which was later abandoned in an outcry over revelations of News Corp. phone hacking. British merger regulators didn't ask for jurisdiction over that proposed deal either.
Spokespeople for Sky and 21st Century Fox declined to immediately comment. The CMA and European Commission declined to comment.
The British inquiry potentially poses a bigger potential hurdle to the deal than the antitrust review. UK government asked telecom regulators earlier this month to examine media concerns, leaving a final decision on whether to block the deal with UK Culture Minister Karen Bradley.
