    What are you doing right now?

    In the middle of a huge snow storm and my husband just left to get me popcorn because I made an offhand comment that it sounds good.. I appreciate the thought but am frustrated by the non negotiable foolishness of it all. If he's like this when I have just normal crampy cravings I can't imagine...

    What's on your mind?

    I definitely agree with this for meat and eggs.. But i guess i can't think of a way dairy could be produced to a mass market ethically. I had no idea they perpetually impregnated the cows, took their young calves then repeated the cycle to keep the milk going... It just seems beyond cruel :(

    How does your relationship change after you get married?

    I'm very new to being married, but just to offer a different perspective we actually were shocked at how little has changed. We thought everything was going to feel super different but it didn't, it's like milestone birthdays. Someone says "how does it feel being 21?" And you think "same as 20."...

    Is it ok to have a ouija board in the house?

    Ouija boards are just a piece of cardboard with writing. They are not real. I think being afraid of Ouija boards is assigning them far too much power. I used one a couple years back. I was raised to think they were evil and scary but as I got older i realized that it's just a gimmick. Hasbro...

    What's on your mind?

    Learned the truth about the dairy industry today... Now I'm struggling with if becoming a vegetarian isn't good enough and if ethically I'm going to have to become vegan.. Really don't want to be but I just can't see how else I can operate now that I know better. Has anyone else wrestled with...

    How is God a part of your day-to-day life with your spouse?

    We go to Church together, do devotionals together and pray together when someone is feeling especially down. God also comes up a lot when we're upset or arguing- we try to factor in what God says about the issue into our discussion.

    Wedding planning advice

    Make sure you have a photographer you love. If you can use the same photographer for your engagement photos as your wedding day, do it! If engagement photos turn out bad... Run! I made the mistake of listening to him when he said he understood what I didn't like and he was going to fix it for...

    Advice for an engaged couple?

    Owlyyyyy!!! :) Congrats on the engagement!! By biggest advice is to enjoy being engaged, it goes by really fast and you never get it back. Also, accept there will be at least one major disaster at your wedding and choose now to laugh at it.

    Question about Christian women

    I definitely am not thinking about sex and lust when i say soulmate vs attractive, but I still wouldn't speak that way or be happy with my spouse if he did. In my opinion, fangirling over another man like that is disrespectful to my husband and could make him feel less than. I never want to make...

    What's on your mind?

    I had a totinos pizza when the fast ended.. A little naughty, but then i had hummus for dinner so I feel like it evened out. I've been trying to be good since- everything in moderation and working towards being a vegetarian. Feeling really good!

    What's on your mind?

    Throwing in the fasting towel 10.5 hours early, body just isn't feeling good anymore and I'm not able to sleep. Disappointed not to make it all the way, but I still think I learned a lot from this and made a big step forward on changing my negative relationship with food. 9 lbs down total. I'm...
