Happy Easter!

Happy Easter! 


Jesus is Risen!


He is Risen indeed! 


If you have ever wondered how I came upon the title of my blog, it came from my favorite Easter hymn: 

Let us talents and tongues employ,
reaching out with a shout of joy:
bread is broken, the wine is poured,
Christ is spoken and seen and heard.
Jesus lives again; earth can breathe again.
Pass the Word around: loaves abound!

Christ is able to make us one,
at his table he set the tone,
teaching people to live to bless,
love in word and in deed express.
Jesus lives again; earth can breathe again.
Pass the Word around: loaves abound!

Jesus calls us in, sends us out
bearing fruit in a world of doubt,
gives us love to tell, bread to share:
God (Immanuel) everywhere!
Jesus lives again; earth can breathe again.
Pass the Word around: loaves abound!

After church this morning we enjoyed the traditional Easter breakfast from Ross' family: Egg Bake with orange slices and cinnamon rolls. 



I did not wake up early enough or plan ahead for cinnamon rolls, so we settled from a pinwheel from LaFeen's. It wasn't exactly settling, however. =)


I also tried an herbal coffee that we received as a sample at the Earth Day Celebration yesterday. 


It is a non-caffeinated and non-acidic herbal coffee substitute. 


While I was excited for "chocolate tea," I really wasn't a fan of it. It was a bit too sweet for me; after all, I do love my coffee, and I almost always drink my coffee black. I think the thing I really love about it is the nostalgic memories of when I was living in Costa Rica. 



If you like a sweet coffee though, you might like this! 


Happy Easter to you and your family wherever you are and however you celebrate! 

Peace, 
Jenn
