My Beloved Husband

Look for me

I'm here

In the glint of your eyes and the lilt of your laugh

Close your eyes there I am

where the lights glow soft and warm

In the quiet moments where your thoughts drift

And your dreams late late at night

Look for me

In those moments when you think you're alone

and you take a deep breath and wonder

"Where have you gone?"

I'm here by your side holding your hand

loving you as I always have and will

forever more

God gave us memories so that we might have roses in December.

Love is . . .

Love is patient,

Love is kind,

It always protects,

always trusts,

always hopes,

 always perseveres.

Love never fails.

~ 1 Corinthians 13:4,7-8

Today is a beautiful Alaskan sunny day; very much like the day last September that my middle son and daughter-in-law were married.  They had a lovely little wedding at the Shrine of St. Therese in Juneau.  Because of Covid-19, only immediate family members were invited to the ceremony.  But even so, the ceremony couldn't have been more beautiful, or more touching.  My two-year-old granddaughter was the flower girl, and my daughter-in-law's little nephew was the ring bearer.  They were so cute!

Here we are after the ceremony, sans Extratufs. ☺

It was such a happy day; and a day we'll all cherish and remember.

Halibut Tacos

This recipe for Halibut Tacos is a recipe my middle son created, and made for my husband and I for dinner.

These tacos are absolutely delicious, and are simple to make too!

Enjoy!

Halibut Tacos

Serves 6

Ingredients:

1-2 lbs. Halibut

2 Tbsp. Olive oil
Old Bay Seasoning, to taste
Corn or flour tortillas

Red onion, chopped

Cilantro, chopped

Salsa or Siracha Sauce

Fresh lime wedges

Instructions:

1. Cook halibut in olive oil over medium heat until flaky.  Excess water and oil should cook off.
2. Sprinkle halibut generously with Old Bay Seasoning, to taste.
3. Heat corn or flour tortillas on each side in a small pan, without oil.
4. Spoon halibut into tortillas.  The above photo shows two corn tortillas per taco, so that the tacos won't fall apart as easily.
5. Sprinkle with raw red onion and cilantro.
6. Serve with salsa or Siracha sauce, and fresh lime.
