As I was reading through News Headlines tonight I ran into a story regarding an 18 year old girl who had died from a sudden, severe, tragic epilepsy attack. Her sweet parents decided to honor her last request by paying for many Pumpkin Spice Lattes for other Customers of Starbucks. The kindness spread. Those who were given free beverages bought free beverages for others in Alyssa's honor, and were celebrating Epilepsy Awareness while being kind to someone they didn't know. It spread to other states and countries quickly
I love this story, her parents turned a tragedy into a life to celebrate. Here's a look a little bit more into the story.

Parisian Crepes
I went to France in May and the best culinary crepes I've had were in the street vendors near Paris. These types had eggs, ham and cheese inside them.
Here are 2 recipes I want to try.

This is how the street vendors made the crepes
This recipe is a different way of cooking the crepe and it's contents.

They both look delicious.
Making this well, and enjoying it with my family, would help my mood be joyful for the whole day!

Imagine being in the war and having all 4 limbs blasted off in a bomb accident!
I was thinking my life was hard and challenging and I just got a reality check.
Thank you my Heavenly Father for my arms and legs and my loved ones.
My goodness. The blessings I take for granted.
The joy and happiness that we get from our simple gifts from God.
From who we are, our charachter, our personalities, motivation and determination.
Today is the day to give thanks for all of them. Think of what you have.
Have a wonderful Night!
