My Favourite Things


Raindrops on roses & whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles & warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things...
are you singing along yet?

Here are a few of my favourite things:

Smell of fresh laundry dried in the sunlight
Giggling babies & toddlers with delight
Playing piano & loudly I sing
These are a few of my favourite things

Warm roaring fires on cold winter nights
Beech sand, umbrellas, buckets & kites
Autumns bright colours & flowers in spring
These are a few of my favourite things

Your turn, you write a verse or two for the song :)
It's a great way to feel happy,
just ponder on the simple things in life that bring you joy.

    Skinny jeans, long tops and old leather shoes.
    Dancing and singing and crazy new moves.
    Cardigans, skirts, my brand new black leggins,
    theses are a few of my favourite things.

    When your dead broke.
    When your jeans rip.
    When life aint to "rad"
    I simply remember my favourite things,
    and then I don't feel so bad.

    Birds and Butterflies
    Bees and Beetles
    The smell of fresh air in a cat's fur when it comes inside the house from outside.
    The smell of fresh ground coffee.
    Daffodils and sweetpeas.
    Sunshine and blue sky.
    Crisp autumn leaves.
    Warmth.
    Friendship.
    The stars on a clear night with no light polution.
    I could go on but then it wouldn't be a 'few' of my favourite things.

    Smiling faces, kind words, Hugs that don't end
    Chatting, spending time with family and friends
    reminiscing over memories, photos galore
    These are the things that I'm thankful for.

    A drive through the forest, a walk by the river
    A picnic. surprise flowers when they are delivered
    Laughter, singing, when music rings
    These are a few of my favorite things

The Tale of a Church Planter

  The ups, downs, frustrations, joys and everything in-between on the roller coaster ride of church planting. I can honestly say that no recipe or formula for church building exists - God does not work in this way! D7 Church is proof of this. Not because we didn’t try, we did try just about everything. Our bookshelf is lined with books that tell you what works and what doesn’t work. Our computer is filled with files of blog posts from mega-church pastors, documents with strategy from other churches. We have attended conferences and visited other churches to try and learn about building a church.  It was only when we gave up and said so to God that we began to have breakthrough. This is our story.

Nature's Way - Hair Colouring

Good news for those of you living in the EU but sadly bad news for my USA friends.  Europe is well ahead of the USA in its responses to potentially dangerous chemicals in health and beauty products. On 1st December 2007 a ban was imposed on 22 hair dye substances issued by the European Commission.  These ingredients had been linked to bladder cancer in a 2001 University of Southern California study.  Günter Verheugen, the European Commission Vice-President, said, "Substances for which there is no proof that they are safe will disappear from the market.  Our high safety standards do not only protect EU consumers, they also give legal certainty to the European cosmetics industry." The USA however, has not required manufacturers to file data on ingredients or report cosmetic-related injuries.  If you wish to find the exact 22 ingredients do an Internet search for ‘Europe Bans 22 Hair Dye Chemicals’ The most dangerous hair dye ingredients are the Arylamines chemi...
