Jacqueline
Chocolat - French for Chocolate. I adored chocolate from a young age when I had to sneak in the cupboard to find where my mother had hidden the Nestle's Chocolate Chips. Having read about the famous chocolat shoppes in Paris, when I finally got there I was determined to try a chocolate from every Paris shoppe. I invite you to share my adventures in creating, in travel, and in life.

Words to Eat By
"Though never a very good dieter, she'd found a rule of thumb that kept her from blimping out as her metabolism aged - eat what you want, but not all of it. So if she wanted cheesecake, she made cheesecake, had a slice, and took the rest to a friend or someone in her church who needed a pick-me-up."

Congrats to your son. Wishing him all the best in his mission!
ReplyDeleteI admire your son's commitment to his church that makes him willing to do this. It sounds like it is also a family commitment as evidenced by your daughter's willingness to change her wedding date. It sounds like you are wonderful parents with a wonderful family. Good luck to all of you as you prepare for these big events to come.
ReplyDeleteJust arrived home. Need to finish dinner. But wanted to say how happy I am for you and for your son's choice of living. Because it is so much more than your Faith, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteSomehow I missed what your religion was but I can't praise enough all I've met.
More after on your family's beautiful soul.
Hugs,
Teresa
Congratulations and best wishes to your HANDSOME son as he embarks on this new phase of his life. Your daugher is very generous to change her wedding date. You all will be VERY busy now. XO, Pinky
ReplyDeleteJacqueline, our prayers will be with him and your family- what a wonderful commitment. Allie has an LDS friend at school who is leaving for his mission in 3 weeks- she's so proud of him too!

My husband just got our mission call. We will be serving in the Tennessee, Nashville Mission. To us that will be a foreign country. We are from Oregon and never have traveled past Utah and Co.orado! Good luck to your son and family. He will do great I am sure!
ReplyDeleteWhen it rains, it pours..even for family happenings. So glad the wedding could be moved and congratulations to your son for receiving his mission with happiness.

Jacqueline, this is an exciting year for your family. Congratulations to Chase. Will look forward to seeing all the photos for your daughter's wedding celebration.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to your son. He certainly is a fine looking young man. His life will be forever changed from this adventure that he is about to embark upon. What a wonderful Blessing!! I will most definitely add him to my prayer box as I pray for God to use him abundantly and to keep him safe.
ReplyDeleteSure looks like some great food there.
I know you all are so very busy, but you are such a talented lady and I know that all will be just perfect...
What a life-changing two years these will be for your son. Congratulations to him, and to you and his father for raising a son who is ready to do this work.
ReplyDeleteYou will have your plate full for the next little while!
Congratulations to your handsome son, Chase. It will be a wonderful experience and a lovely way to share the Gospel. Your daughter is a real gem to change her wedding date.
ReplyDeleteYummy food as usual Jacqueline....
Sorry, another thing hit me and I couldn't return yesterday.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy for you. And for him. These experiences are priceless, even more when you're doing it within something you trust and believe.
Korea is so foreign to me that I had to check which was which ;). I wish him a successful trip and stay there.
So so Happy for you. What a Magical Year you all are living.
Wishing Chase all the good things that enrich life, during this new venture.

Hi Jacqueline, Best wishes to your son as he sets out on his journey and also to your daughter who changed her wedding date! My husband was in Seoul on 9/11, having just flown in for a business meeting. He could not get to the American Embassy or a flight home of course, but the Korean people were so kind and welcoming to him for those four days. Your son has such an interesting and exciting two years coming up! I always love to talk to the LDS kids who come to our door. We have a large church here, and the kids are so sweet, sometimes even homesick, and they just want to talk and help. You must be so proud. Congratulations to your entire family! Linda
ReplyDeleteShowers of blessings in your world. It is all so wonderful. Thank you for always sharing your joy with us.
ReplyDeleteI know you guys must be just bustin' your buttons with pride...and with good reason! What a noble and wonderful experience for your son to take on!!! Great idea to go to the Korean restaurant, too. You'll have some idea of what he's talking about when he calls/writes/Tweets about the food there in Korea. I didn't know the Koreans eat with stainless chopsticks. I have a set of 14, and they are my preferred chopstick. More of a "fork & knife" feel to them in my hand. I don't think I've ever eaten authentic Korean food (I'm not terribly adventurous when it comes to food), but it looks good!
ReplyDeleteBlessings and good wishes to your son! (I saw the President of South Korea on the "CBS Evening News" last night, and she's one tough cookie. I think your son is in good hands with that chick at the helm!)
May God Bless him and keep him safe as he spreads the Faith of Our Lord. What a wonderful son you have.
ReplyDeleteWhat a handsome young man. I have often wondered how these young men go off and do this work for two years so unselfishly and how you as parents "give them up" for that time. I guess when that is how you are raised from childhood is seems like the norm, but to those of us who aren't exposed to it...it seems like such an unselfish act and very mature at that age. I'm sure he will do wonderful work and have lots of stories to share.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to your son! A family is so blessed when they have a missionary serving:) Our son went to the Philippines, and I thought he would starve because he went as a very picker eater, but he returned loving the food and everything else. He met a Filipino girl at BYUH and married her:) Good luck with the wedding and the trek too...you are one busy woman!
ReplyDeleteSue, it seems unselfish and mature to me too and it is hard to give them up. It is even more unselfish when they earn all the money themselves. It costs $400 a month for each missionary. It is wonderful to see him sacrifice.
ReplyDeleteTheresa, I had to check it out too! He was just across the water when he was in China.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to your son and to everything else that is going on in your life! You sound very busy these days! Also, your son's friend will LOVE Vancouver! It is a fabulous city! xo
ReplyDeleteWhat a good-looking young man, Jacqueline! I'm so glad your daughter was able to change her wedding date so he could be there...sometimes that isn't the easiest thing to do.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you will miss him but what a wonderful experience.
