Mochi

Today we went to the Farmers Market.  We went and no one else was there (a bad source told us it was on Saturday when in real life it’s on Sunday). So we ended up walking around Lake Eola. Coming from a place where you have to go to River Park North to see geese, I was in complete awe. I don’t think I’ve ever been so close to swans! Sadly enough it seemed that I was the only one interested in trying to pet one so I had to run catch up with everyone instead.

Someday I will go back and this time I’ll have my camera (no, none of these photos are mine) and people who will wait (even if I have to force them) By the way, this ties into this past weeks teachings. We watched the Passion videos by Floydd McClung, which focused on passion. For small group this past week we incorporated the teaching and asked God to give us something to encourage someone else in their passions. Part of my encouragement was, “God has created you to capture the beauty others can’t see”. This is the second time this has been actually spoken over me, among the many times people comment on it. Well this afternoon made me think about this word.

We did end up at the Flea Market for a bit, though it wasn’t appreciated and we left.
Fact: I love flea markets. I like making a day of it. Wake up early, spend several hours roaming the market, grab lunch at a local cafe or deli and then walk around downtown – that’s a wonderful day to me. Course I would only do this maybe once a month.

Back to my day; after dinner we decided to try to new frozen yogurt place right next to the new theater. Mochi Frozen Yogurt = Amazingness. And yall know I’m not big on sweets. It’s a self serve place where you are charged per ounce, so you control how much it will cost you. And half of the toppings they have are fruit! I ended up with Taro and Kiwi yogurt with kiwi, mango and strawberry toppings.

It was a good day.
Got to know some people a little better and see beautiful things .
