neurologist, but has been confirmed with an enthusiastic “thumbs up” by my wife.

a cow anymore because it can no longer produce milk. Being fertile or infertile has nothing to do with being a man or a woman. That doesn't define what is classified as male or female. An example of when they talk about an “Unwoman” is when Serena Joy is talking with Offred about having sex with Nick. “‘Your time’s running out,”’ she says.

The illustration shows the fly looking over at the spider’s bed and there is a group of ghost bugs holding a book called “The joy of cooking bugs.” The fly is aware of the spider’s misleading words because she is constantly proving to him that she isn’t a fool. Although she is aware of the spider’s tactics the fly still gets eaten by the spider. If I were a parent I would…

the praise of humans. He created people not because He needed them, but because He wanted to create something in His own image to share in the joy of His creation. What I never understood until now is the meaning of praise. Praise “not merely expresses but completes the enjoyment” of God (Piper, p 249). When people praise God, they are expressing their joy in an outward fashion. What they do pleases God and shows how much they love Him. When someone delights in something, they will naturally…

for me. Chocolate chip cookies have been and always will be my favorite cookie. Even before I started cooking things from scratch, those bricks of Nestle® cookie-dough have always been a treasure in my life. Now, baking and culinary arts in general are my life. I live, eat, and breathe kitchen. I am an advanced baker-in-training, but back then I had just begun understanding the principles of cooking. Born and raised in Lexington, Kentucky, I was the second oldest of two brothers, with three…

There really isn’t a difference other than cost…

liberal and generous. The expectation of serving one’s husband was alike in Indian society. In the Ramayana, one can infer that women served their husbands well when Sita states “The joy experienced by lords of men… is far inferior to the joy of the wife in the service of her lord”(55).
