Last weekend I went away on retreat with the lovely ladies from Shall we Dance? This evening watching the results slow for Strictly Come Dancing I was reminded again how lucky we are to have the perfect dance partnerb in Christ Jesus. As I watched the beautiful dancing this evening I wondered just which dance it is that we are dancing right now. Life is challenging me and it can Sometimes be just a bit much.
Today I have practiced contemplative prayer in the swimming pool. 30 lengths of contemplative prayer. This afternoon I have cooked. Coming centers me. Preparing food for friends and family gives me joy, so my Domesticity this afternoon was to make some Leek and tomato soup with a cheese scone round. Them this evening I have baked our Christmas cake and it smells yummy.
Now last weekend I announced that I couldn't make scones for all the tea in China. It's true. Today I made yummy cheese scones and even mama bear agreed they were alright. Good old Mary Berry she holds all the answers.
In a turn of fait this afternoon has also seem me empty and defrost my freezer in its entirety!
Three acts of Domesticity in one day!
