• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

ok, so I'm "different" and new... ask away =)

Childhood memories

So what toys, dolls/action figures, games, etc do you remember having and enjoying? I had Barbies, and stuffed animals. I wasn't into the Barbie phase long. Not sure I remember enjoying many things - I had my imagination, and used that mostly.

Because we grew up during an interesting time: Were you allowed to play with toys of the other sex? I had a Ken doll, so I guess I was allowed to play with any toy.

And did you/do you like stuffed animals? Any specific type? I had a stuffed poodle named "Missy" that I kept until she was thread-bare (someone in my family took her from me, so I don't know what happened to her). I got a stuffed Snoopy for high school graduation, along with a stuffed Smurf, both of which I took to college with me.

Do you have Sunday dinner plans? I'll be making a penne pasta in a simple pomodoro sauce tossed with grape tomatoes, fresh basil and fresh mozzarella cheese. Maybe a nice glass of Pinot Noir or Sangviovese. Simple but yummy!!

Yes, I do actually. Yours sounds yummy!! I'm making something off my new diet - Eggplant Spinach Lasagna. I've heard it's really good. Might make some parmasan garlic bread to go with it, and cheesecake for dessert. :D

If you like the lasagna would you mind sharing the recipe. I love veggie pastas - that sounds delicious.:thumbsup:

Do you have a favorite place that you'd like to retire to?

Personally, I'm narrowed down to Traverse City, Michigan or Asheville, North Carolina. Of course, I'd have to talk my church into moving with me - otherwise I stay where I am.

OK - now I don't mean this to be a morbid question, but . . . . assuming that all family members are safe, what one thing would you take with you if you had to evacuate your house in an emergency (i.e. housefire)?

(Since most people say photographs, assume they're ok and choose something else!)

HEY, Marti!!!!

Let me know when and if there is something really good going on at your church sometime soon, so I can come and we can meet.
Wouldn't it be funny if we had seen each other somewhere before???
Hey Barb! How about Thursday night? This is what is going on starting at 7pm: "Join with believers from all over Las Vegas as we come together for a concert of prayer. We will be praying for personal, family, citywide, and global concerns."
Yeah, it would be funny! but I have had it happen before - it is a smallllllll world! :)

who besides Jesus Christ has been a major influence on your life?
I'd have to say my mother.. As a kid I wouldn't have admitted to it, but it seems that I'm following in her footsteps (I'm becoming my mom! :eek: ), so she must have had a major influence.
