I made an absolutely lovely Bible (lentil) soup last night, from scratch. I used a crock pot and cooked until it was all nice and creamy smooth and the vegies were cooked "to death."
I used about 3 c. of organic red lentils in 6 c. of H2O with 3 medium carrots, 1 shallot, about a half c. (maybe 1 c.?) of chopped onion, 2 cloves of minced garlic, and about half a pound of leftover Gwaltney spiral ham.
I love soups and chilis this time of year.
The Bible soup is absolutely delicious, (but I really should have bought some beano to go with it). I also had to add a bit of salt, despite the ham.
I made some roasted potatoes, too, to go with it, with garlic and the last of the dill from my dead herb "garden" (just a pot of weeds now) and a bunch of canola oil and a bit of balsamic vinegar. It's yummy, too.
MMMM. comfort food!

oh, how many of us heard that we wouldn't make it to graduation or get married in this system?

i thought i wouldn't grow up.

no one talked about preparing for the future.

I didn't think so either, but eventually, I got over it.

This seems like a job for people who investigate murders and suicides - like the police.

Do you let your dub relatives watch your kids?

2. friends
this was mentioned on another topic but it needs it's own thread.

ok, i'm gonna say it again.

if your relatives will not speak to you.... do not let them have any contact with your children, period.

Hell, No. Not any more.
My mom had to put a hatchet through the bedroom door when she was fighting with Dad over controlling my daughter (or something) before I finally began to come to my senses and realized they are just as crazy as their religion.
No need to expose my kid to anything crazier than me.

well it looks like this site is a real melting pot, a broad spectrum of views and beliefs.

for sure there are many disaffected ex jws.

so in as few words as possible, preferably not more than one sentence, how would you describe yourself spiritually?

Will Carnivorous Jehovah Establish A Vegetarian New World?
by TMS in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
god jehovah has had a preoccupation, if not an obsession with meat.

although cain worked hard to produce an offering of vegetables, it was rejected because it was not meat.

priests were instructed to save certain cuts of meat for jehovah, the fatty portions.

My daughter's bf said it would be interesting to see "how the world would be without meat-eaters. If you kill all the wolves, you'll have a crapload of bunnies."
Would there be enough lettuce for us all?

""how jws choose to NOT be happy, to not have this joy, to not feel this love. . .to put all their energy into directing their god-given hate at children!. . .and I know they won't listen, they won't change, they won't let go their obsession with Watchtower, they won't allow themselves to just BE. . .our parents, our friends, our sisters, our brothers, our anything. . .and we miss them, but they're just gone. . ""
But it's so good you also know this:
""the joy we had being together for one special day, just one day to fuss over our loved ones and eat and laugh and enjoy music and eat some more and to count our years by Christmases and it makes me smile ""
Keep smiling and remembering and planning for more and more happiness together. Easter and Valentine's Day are just around the bend. And Halloween will be here before you know it. Keep having fun.
Congrats on enjoying yourselves. Keep up the good work!
