Once in a lifetime two friends meet that have always known each other - heart to heart. Dian and I are those kinds of friends. At last we have a little time together and the hours flew past as our conversation was meaningful and full of enlightening joy for us both! Meetings were going on around us - but we had our own little 'Conference'! Oooo the time went too fast! Laughter, joy, excitement for the future, fun and love all rolled up in one short brunch!
Today was the Ladies Banquet and so we four managed to get seats together for it.
It was held in a poolside tent beside the Convention Center. Interesting setting. At our table were 3 missionary wives, one was headed to Botswana, another to Honduras and one to Mexico. The other ladies were pastors wives from around the States. We all had a lively discussion sharing hearts and ministry issues along with our meal.
Later in the day - Susan took me to a Raw Food Restaurant. We enjoy organic vegan foods when possible so this was a real find we HAD to check out.
It's a tiny little spot that makes fresh - really fresh foods that are only organic, vegan and raw. So we had to try a couple of things.
Lasagna - pizza and cheese cake. Oh my goodness! What a surprise - we enjoyed all three. The Lasagna was made out of zucchini 'noodles' with macadamia nut 'cheese' - super good. The pizza crust was walnuts, zucchini and a couple of other ingredients I think green olives oh my goodness -it was great!
And the cheesecake was lemony and so good! Just coconut butter, agave juice and lemon and the crust was crushed nuts. I know I am gushing but it was amazing.
I think this must have been an assigned Ladies Day for me from the Lord - I enjoyed it very much with ladies with like spirits.
P.S. I had too much to eat today for sure!
Today this Conference is over and we are headed out for our next meetings.
