  4. Three vampires walk into a bar and sit down at a table. The waitress comes over and asks the first vampire what he would like. The first vampire responds, "I vould like some blood." The waitress turns to the second vampire and asks what he would like. The vampire responds, "I vould like some blood." The waitress turns to the third vampire and asks what he would like. The vampire responds, "I vould like some plasma." The waitress looks up and says, "Let me see if I have this order correct. You want two bloods and a blood light?"
  5. A guy comes into a coffee shop and places his order, he says "I want three flat tires and a pair of headlights and a pair of running boards." The waitress, not wanting to appear stupid, goes to the kitchen and asks the cook, "This guy out there just ordered three flat tires and a pair of headlights and pair of running boards. What does he think, this is an auto parts store?" "No" the cook says, "three flat tires means three pancakes and a pair of headlights is two eggs sunny side up and running boards is 2 slices crisp bacon." "Oh," says the waitress. She thinks about this for a while, and then she spoons up a bowl of beans and gives it to the customer. The guy says, "What are the beans for?" The waitress replies, "I thought while you were waiting for the flat tires, headlights and running boards, you might want to gas up."
  6. Do you have a front porch? Unfortunately my apartment building only has a picknic area in the courtyard. I would love a front porch.

  10. These incredibly soft and fluffy cinnamon rolls start with a spice cake mix for wonderful fall flavors in every bite! Prep Time1hour hr 30minutes mins Cook Time20minutes mins Total Time1hour hr 50minutes mins Servings: 16 -24 rolls Author: Danelle Ingredients For the rolls: 1 16.5 oz. box spice cake mix 4 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast 2 1/2 cups warm water 1 teaspoon salt 4 1/2 cups flour For the filling: 1/2 cup butter very soft 3/4 cup brown sugar 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon For the frosting: 4 ounces cream cheese softened 1/2 cup butter softened 1 teaspoon vanilla 1-2 tablespoons milk 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar Pinch of salt Instructions In a medium bowl, stir yeast into warm water; set aside. In a large bowl combine cake mix, salt and 4 cups of the flour. Stir in the yeast and water. Gradually add the last 1/2 cup flour until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl and a soft but slightly sticky dough forms. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until dough is doubled in size, about 60 minutes. Turn dough onto a large, floured surface and knead once or twice. Roll dough into a rectangle about 12 inches wide, 28 inches long and 1/4 inch thick. Spread soft butter evenly over dough. Combine brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon and sprinkle over butter. Once you have spread the butter and spice mixture over the dough, cut the large rectangle in half to form two smaller rectangles. Starting with a long end, roll each rectangle into a log. Slice the dough into 1 to 1 1/2 inch pieces. Place the rolls into 2 greased 9x13 pans (or a 9x13 and a 9x9, depending on how many rolls you have). Cover the rolls and let rise until doubled in size, about 40 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake rolls for about 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. While rolls cook, beat the cream cheese and butter for the frosting with an electric mixer until creamy. Mix in the vanilla and 1 tablespoon of milk. Gradually add the powdered sugar and salt, mixing until smooth. Add more milk, if needed, until frosting reaches desired consistency. Spread frosting over hot rolls. Notes Prep time includes rising.

  14. And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me." 2 Corinthians 12:9
  15. Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved” (Psalm 55:22 NKJV).
  16. Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” Proverbs 4:23 (NIV)
  17. The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still. —Exodus 14:14 (NIV)
  18. “Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever” (Psalm 136:1 NKJV).
  19. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. – Psalm 34:18 Ever wonder what causes people to walk away from their faith? A friend once told me she stopped believing in Jesus because, during her lowest point, “God wasn’t there when I needed Him most.” She felt abandoned, and slowly, her faith unraveled. But others, facing similar pain, run toward God and find Him to be their comfort. What makes the difference? The difference is not in the pain itself, but in where we turn in the pain. If our faith is only built on feelings, disappointment will wreck us. But when our faith is anchored in the unchanging promises of God’s Word, we discover that He is near, even when we can’t sense Him. Scripture reminds us in Psalm 34:18 that “the Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” That’s not a feeling—it’s a fact. So let me ask you: where do you go when life falls apart? To despair? To distraction? Or to the living God who has already proven His love at the cross? If you want to hold on to your faith in the trial, you must hold on to His Word. He is there. He always has been. He always will be. Lina Abujamra
