Twenty five years ago Hubby and I bought a simple stainless steal refrigerator to keep in the garage of our Las Vegas Home. When we returned to California, that same refrigerator came with us. It served as our only refrigerator for years.

Thus says the LORD:
Here is my servant whom I uphold, my chosen one with whom I am pleased, upon whom I have put my spirit; he shall bring forth justice to the nations.
Over the Moon Delicious!

Hubby and I have been together for nearly 40 years now. That’s a lot of suppers shared together. In all those years, with all those meals, he has always let me know what he’s thought of dinner.
