“Hi Elle. R u guys home. Have little something wanted to drop off quickly for my sista.”
That was the text I got from my dear sis- in-Christ, Janice, yesterday morning.
Still living off of the warm fuzzies from when Abbey dropped off her banana muffins, this text made me raise my eyes up and say “Really Lord? You mean, someone else actually wants to come by?”.
I was giddy. How fun!
Janice joined our bible study group last year and omgosh – what a blessing she is to the whole group! If you’ve spent any amount of time with Janice, you know that you are pretty much guaranteed a good day. She brings you joy and she leaves you with lots of carry-over joy that will last you a long time!
This Saturday was turning out to be a winner. I woke up to lots of pretty sunshine and hubby brought me breakfast in bed.
He’s just sweet that way. Notice his inner-foodie starting to come out? He added 2 little waffle crisps to the whipped cream :).
Then Janice comes by after a trip to our local Farmer’s Market. She has this new favorite salsa and thought of me when she saw there was a more spicy version of it. So I explain to her that it’s perfect timing because I had this overwhelming urge to make a Venezuelan dinner of aprepas, black beans & rice for hubby that evening.
I was inspired by a restaurant in San Francisco, called “Pica Pica“.
Arepas are a grilled corn pocket made from Harina P.A.N. and the dough was really simple and easy to work with. Next time we make it – and we will! – I will photo document it and post the recipe here.
Janice’s salsa paired great with our meal. Even hubby (who is trying his best to eat food with “heat”) spooned it over his black beans and rice.
YUM. Thank you, Janice!
