The DOH ~ Cookie Shack

[Miracle Storm]

I did not expect to come in doh and start craving food...Y'all are going to wreck my diet! ugh

 

[Tenebrae]

Even worse..
Summer school.
I did well on my spring finals though, thank the Lord for that.

Ekk

I only did summer school once, and that was enough. praying for you that it doesnt leave you too knackered for next semester

 

[ChaliceThunder]

So...

How about a thread title??

OK - how about "The DoH Cookie Shack"

All of us could use some sweet, crunchy goodness every now and again - particularly after jousting in these threads!

 

[stumpjumper]

Cookies sounds good!

I have some Strawberry Shortcake right now that I need to finish up, though...

 

[Criada]

Here's some cake:

 

[ChaliceThunder]

Cool cake for your boys, stumpjumper! YAY!

I'm doing some of the music at the Holy Union of some friends in LA this noon...the party after the rehearsal last night was just awesome...and there was plenty of chocolate decadence left over, so I gladly share with my compadres in the shack!

 

[Criada]

Your lads are very cute, SJ!

How is everyone's weekend going?

 

[stumpjumper]

We just played a two hour baseball game (the boys play and I coach) in 96 degree weather.

We're about to go pool hopping in the hood

Are you an organist Chalice Thunder?

I love what I do!!!

 

[Apollo Celestio]

Just returned from a spiritual formation retreat weekend for the kids (6-8th grade), and I need to get busy on my school work, but my mind is bleh.. XD The Lord is great, and seeing it through children learning and growing is just...awesome.

 

[Texas Lynn]

Organist, pianist, choir director, composer.
I love what I do!!!

Can you play "Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing"? I have seen white organists, pianists, choirs, and congregations butcher it. The one time I didn't it was Unitarians. When I do the bulletin on my lay speaking days I try to include it at least once a year. We're doing it next Sunday. Our (African-American) choir director assured me our (multiracial, multicultural) church can do it right.

When I play it, African Americans love it, and sing it with gusto. White people sing it with gusto as well, but always comment that I play it entirely too slowly.

That means I'm doing it right!

(and to play it really right, you gotta use ALL 13 fingers!!!!)

That takes me back to the afrocentric multicultural school I went to as a kid. We'd always sing that song and do the "harambe" thing.

Agreed Ishida.
I just love the energy and commitment of our youth!

Good for you for your witness with them!
