Global warming and peanut butter recalls and allergies

It was 12 degrees today, and the snow is still on the ground.  I'm still waiting for global warming to kick in or at least spring. 

My dad came home today telling me there is a recall on peanut butter.  http://www.nytimes.com/2007/02/16/us/16peanutbutter.html?_r=1&oref=slogin  Apparently, 300 people have fallen ill to salmonella poisoning.  Many of you will find this ironic after hearing me say last week that I've had a renewed love for peanut butter.  Yes, it is true in the last week I've managed to down three quarters of what I call "The Big Jar" of peanut butter.  My father tells me that all jars of peanut butter that starts with the numbers 2111 have been recalled.  So when I check my jar of peanut butter, of course, it is the 2111.  In fact, I have two jars of Peter Pan peanut butter dated nine months apart, both beginning with these numbers and both under this recall.  Now something in me says that two jars of peanut butter made nine months apart are both going to be tainted with salmonella, especially after I've eaten 75% of both jars. 

My wife is slightly more upset about this matter.  Last week I read in one of her baby magazines that the girls are now at the age that they can now have some of the allergy inducing items infants aren't allowed, peanut butter being one of these items.  You get the picture.  While I was eating peanut butter for lunch this week, I decided the girls should have the pleasure of enjoying this experience with me, so they did.  Jessica was quite unhappy about this, and apparently their doctor had said they were not to eat peanut butter until they are three because they were preemie.   This is ridiculous and unacceptable if you ask me, but Jessica doesn't ask me.  And now we find out that the peanut butter could have been tainted with salmonella.  Praise God that the girls are fine.  They won't be eating peanut butter again anytime soon.  However their father has a quarter of a jar to finish before he takes his nearly empty jars in for replacements, so excuse me while I go finish off this goodness.

I'm unfaithful to Xanga because everything takes some much more time on dial-up.
But here are the girls celebrating Micah's Birthday.  My girls now believe Micah is the boy on the computer who gives them rattles and cake, but at least they like him.  Hopefully, in a month when they meet him they won't be too disappointed that he doesn't always give them cupcakes and toys.

Proof That the Youth Are Revolting
By Five Iron Frenzy

"Who holds your freedom?  Who holds your liberty?  

I can't fall anymore
For some silver-tongued song
Freedom isn't free
So let me say what freedom means to
It cannot mean to serve ourselves
That doesn't mean a thing
It doesn't mean to give the license
To seek ourselves in anything
That would be slavery to ourselves it isn't free
Jesus Christ, the only thing that freedom means to me.
"

I have work starting this Saturday.  I have an exciting job in the food service industry lined up as a waiter.  yea, but at least it is work.  On the bright side we've found a church with good preaching, and people.  The later was something we've had a difficult time finding.  We are going to a dinner for their youth workers this next week to get an idea of what's going on in that ministry.  They are currently looking for 3 pastors at this church for themselves and for a church plant 50 of there members will be starting soon.  We are praying about this currently. 

 The girls are getting big.  They are trying to grow teeth and stand on their own now.  They are also speaking small 2-3 word sentences at this time.  Mostly things like, "Ahb Ahb, ahh goo."  I'm not sure what this means yet, but they seem pretty confident that it means something.  They are starting to discover eachother and have decided that "The Other Girl" as they refer to eachother taste good and they would both like to eat the other one.  We have also found that they have a dark sense of humor and will often laugh when they see "The Other Girl" crying. 

Times in the Word and prayer have been sweeter to me lately, which I am thankful for.  I spent the last week thanking God for the freedom I have in him from sin.  And praying that he will continue to humble me and remind me that he is the source of all good in my life.

Things are good and here are the answers to all of your questions.

Yes but not yet, yeah kind of for now, no I'm not even looking yet,  No not yet for that either, no and that is what I hate most about this town, AND I don't really want to talk about that.

Cease with the hate mail.  Here's your pictures. 

One of these girls is not like the others.  You tell me who is whom.
