WHERE DID THE MONTH GO?
Do you guys feel like the end of the year is coming at you like a meteor out of the sky? Because I do. This year has flown by and now that we are in the middle of December, it seems to be going faster and faster. Christmas time is here and I can feel the holiday vibes all around me as I go out. Parking lots are packed full, lines are long, and it seems like there is this epic race to the finish line. What finish line, I don’t know, but this season, in particular, feels fast. Winter solstice begins next Saturday, although if you live in California then you know that winter has already arrived.

It might be freezing outside, but I still feel like we are back at Halloween. I truly cannot believe we are at the end of a decade and heading into a new one. I’ve heard though, that 2020 will be a good-luck year for all of us because it’s an even number. And God, do I hope that’s true because Shane and I could use some major life-wins. But as they say, make plans, God laughs. I’m going to do my best to take 2020 as it comes. I have a bad habit of anticipating everything and trying to control everything and it does nothing. Experiencing all of the losses we did in 2018 and 2019 makes you realize you have no control. It’s wise to make plans, but know that nothing ever really goes as planned. I’m keeping an open mind and an open heart in 2020. I’m ready to be a mom. I’m ready for a new soul to enter me. I’m ready for all that’s to come. I can only hope and pray that God also believes I’m ready.

STRAWBERRIES AND CHOCOLATE
Strawberries and chocolate go together like coffee and cream. You really cannot have one without the other when it comes to this bread. At first, I was going to make chocolate banana bread, but then I was like let’s add some strawberries to this B and the results were magical! This recipe is wonderful for using up strawberries on their last legs. Now you have a reason to buy those overpriced organic strawberries at the grocery store.
