A.A. is no success story in the ordinary sense of the word. It is a story of suffering transmuted, under grace, into spiritual progress. ~Bill W.

Today I am entirely grateful...
- that my doc was pleased with my lab work yesterday, cholesterol count: 158!
- that I actually cooked in my tiny NYC sized kitchen. Sauteed chicken breasts and steamed broccoli. I was so freaked out about salmonella from the chicken I had to scour everything as I went along. It's a pain in the ass to cook here, like those little square puzzles with one tile missing--you have to constantly move something to do something else. And it wasn't all that good, anyway.
- that I don't have to convince you about anything today
- for my Higher Power's inherent love and my being able to accept it
What are the advantages of being entirely honest about our motives and feelings? One benefit is that we never will have to face the disillusionment and humiliation that come from self-deception. Surely we had enough of that while drinking. Honesty makes us comfortable rather than pained, relaxed rather than anxious, and decisive rather than confused. These are rich rewards for people who once lived in the false world of alcoholism. ~Walk in Dry Places

so do you eat out all the time?
Now you can host that dinner party you've been wanting to have.
thank you! and congrats on the cholesterol :)
Good for you. I have to have a big kitchen because we both like to cook.
Some kitchens are too big. I'm sure you are grateful that everything is in one place. It would have to be in one place, because there is only one place.
Good job, Mister One-Fifty-Eight.
little kitchens are such a great excuse to eat out!
I don't much care to be in the kitchen anyway-big or small.
I would lose my mind if I couldn't cook. I love it.
158! That is a very good achievement.
i love chicken and steamed broccoli!
