I have a poodle. And I love sunshine. That's all you need to know. Tuesday, December 30, 2008. A Feast Fit for a King. Links to this post. Monday, December 29, 2008. This will be really fast because I already typed it once and the computer lost it. How are you? Hope things are great in America! I'm writing this from a foggy India. It's the dead of winter, but isn't as cold as I remembered it.probably because I came here from winter, not a beautiful African summer! So it will be a very full house! Here's ...

Thanks so much for praying! July 16, 2009 at 9:58 AM. Get well soon, dear friend. Im praying for you :). July 16, 2009 at 10:47 AM. Life is a Stage.

I have a poodle. And I love sunshine. That's all you need to know. Monday, April 20, 2009. I didn't think it would happen for another week! Links to this post. Wednesday, April 15, 2009. Asha got 9 new kids today! Please pray for them. They are so scared! None of them speak Hindi (they all speak another village language) and they are so overwhelmed. So frightened. Please pray for this transition for them. Here are some pictures of sweet Mariyam. Links to this post. Tuesday, April 14, 2009. We are blessed...

Summer Daze: May 2009

I have a poodle. And I love sunshine. That's all you need to know. Thursday, May 14, 2009. A Creative Essay: Hope in India. The hot dusty streets, covered in trash and heavy with traffic, beat under a relentless sun. Red, blue, pink, green, yellow, orange, and purple—the colors of. Move about as phantoms. They clothe the women, decorate the vehicles, and permeate the very air. There is no such thing as bleak here. No such thing as colorless. Even taste has color in. While dressed in saris and western wea...

It's Sunday afternoon, and I can't believe that just a week ago I was still in Guatemala, walking through the beautiful city of Antigua. The adventure I never expected has become such a huge part of me. I miss it- and my team and co-leaders- a lot! My team of 16 (that's us up above! So, what's happening now? Boone, NC 28607. Please put "Kristen Torres-Toro" in the memo line. Thank y'all fo...

Summer Daze: March 2009
http://ktsummer.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
I have a poodle. And I love sunshine. That's all you need to know. Sunday, March 29, 2009. I find it so strange that there are so many "rules" here- like you have to sit in assigned seating at a theater, when the country has no idea what traffic laws are. and that security is crappy, even though i have to relinquish my crackers, a book, etc at every turn. Ironically, it seems that the movie theater is stricter than the public transportation system. 4 grilled cheese crackers: sacked. Wilson's reading book...

Summer Daze: Come What May
http://ktsummer.blogspot.com/2009/06/come-what-may.html
I have a poodle. And I love sunshine. That's all you need to know. Saturday, June 13, 2009. God has an awesome way of putting things into perspective. And God has brought the rain. And speaking of His timetable, I got a surprise last week. It's a bit of a long story that I will spare you, but the conclusion is that my summer is going to be even busier than I expected. I'm returning to AIM for a few weeks to help out there, and then off to Guatemala for two weeks in July! By August 13, 2009. I love that, ...

Lessons in the Art of Slow: July 2009
http://lessonsintheartofslow.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Lessons in the Art of Slow. Life gets crazy sometimes. we all need little pockets of time to slow down, breathe deep, wriggle our toes in the grass, and dream. Friday, July 31, 2009. Last weekend, my husband and I descended the long and boring road known as I-16 from the outskirts of Atlanta into the heart of Savannah, GA. There's a little shop there, tucked in the corner of the Publix shopping center (dangerously close to a Starbucks) called Kitchenware Outfitters. I found a recipe for fresh puttanesca.
