What have I accomplished this week? An ant massacre. I know the guy from "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" used Windex for everything, but I promise you it really does wonders to these creepy crawly invaders:
Here's to a better week next week!
As a Christian, wife, mother of a little girl and two fur-babies, Mississippi State Bulldog, and PhD, I lead a very busy life. If you add on top of that my obsession for organization and loves for couponing, sewing, knitting, cooking, reading, gardening, and a host of other random hobbies, you've got the recipe for...well...variety. And variety is the spice of life!

MrsDrPoe: A Week of Sickness, Codes, and Ants
It's finally Foto Friday here on the blog, and what a week it has been! I have been dealing with some sinus thing (either sickness or allergies) all week, as well as a code that is giving me seemingly unexplainable but fabulous results, and ants at my bedroom window.

MrsDrPoe: A Leper Meets The Teacher
This Theology Thursday I have a special treat for you. Instead of sharing some of my thoughts from recent Bible studies, I'd like to point you to a lesson from Mark that Mr. Poe presented several weeks ago. You can listen online to this lesson here; the sermon title is the same as that of this post. Enjoy!

MrsDrPoe: Coconut Shrimp
What's for Dinner this Wednesday? How about some coconut shrimp!
Ingredients: 1 bag of fresh shrimp (thawed, peeled, and deveined), 1/2 cup corn starch, 2-3 large eggs (beaten), 1/2 bag of sweetened, shredded coconut, and oil for frying.
Pat the shrimp dry, then lightly coat each one in corn starch:
Shake off any excess, and dip in the egg:
Coat in coconut, gently patting to ensure that it stays on the shrimp:
Carefully fry the shrimp till golden brown, flipping once if frying in a skillet. Drain the friend shrimp and serve with orange sauce*. YUM!
*To make an orange sauce, combine 1 cup of orange marmalade with 1-2 tablespoons of grated horseradish.

MrsDrPoe: Mr. Chinnis
It's time for another edition of Poes' Pals! Please meet Mr. Chinnis*:
Mr. Chinnis is another of our new friends from Atlanta. He got his chemical engineering degree at Georgia Tech, and he currently works in the paper business. While he's definitely a very intelligent man, what impresses us the most about Mr. Chinnis is his love for the Lord. He is a fantastic role model of serving God with everything you have. He has helped numerous brethren who needed a place to stay, and he has privately funded his own mission trips to various places in Africa and South America...and those are just some of the things that we actually know about. Mr. Poe and I find Mr. Chinnis to be such an encouragement to us, and we are so happy to know him!
