Traci Smith, author of Faithful Families: Creating Sacred Moments at Home has provided a gift of the November 2018 Gratitude Every Day calendar. I am using it as an opportuity to revisit photos and post them as they speak to gratitude.
This one proved a bit of a challenge. I like to eat. I do it well. Too well, my doctor tells me. I have a definite preference for eating food rather than photographing it. I found this one from a Sunday brunch at Community Food and Juice.

It should come as no surprise that purple is the color. Thanks to the saints of First Presbyterian Church of Whitestone for a purple birthday party.

First Presbyterian Church of Whitestone
Whitestone, New York
Today was my birthday. The folks at church celebrated.
They seemed to know I like purple.

The tour wandered down Broadway, via the Subway, to visit the new H-Mart located at 110th. The store has been there for a while, but this was the first visit. And the first visit to any H-Mart.
Wonderful foods lined the shelves. Some were avoided because of their calorie count. More were not selected because they were unknown. Work is needed in that area.
But there was kimchi! And it was good.
A meeting with the pastor and a representative of the Mission Outreach Committee of Riverdale Presbyterian Church took the tour to the Greek Express restaurant for great conversation and a good lunch.
An octopus was discovered lurking in the restroom.

Ordered to support the daughter of a friend;
awesome that they came in purple.
Kitchens challenge me. Making toast can be a problem. Hint: make sure the toaster is plugged in.
But I am trying. Tonight’s effort – cheesy jalapeño chicken.
Not bad. It’s a start.

After church on April 2, some friends and I went to Chinatown for lunch and dessert and most importantly for conversation!
Peng had to leave early to visit a member of the church in the hospital. And we forgot to take a photo before Jim and Holly left. But we did get one with Jamie, Don, and me.
See you along the Trail.

After preaching at the First Presbyterian Church of Rumson, New Jersey, Noushin Framke hosted a wonderful lunch that included purple flowers. To view. Not to eat.
