2 Corinthians 5:17 - Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation....

Opportunity = Nutella (Five Minute Friday)

Nutella

 

This is what the inside of my brain looks like…it’s a scary thing so don’t say you weren’t warned!

Opportunity knocks.

My ship has sailed.

Sailing makes me seasick.

I hate being sick.

I heard a lot of people on #FMFParty talk about being sick.

#FMFParty is all about community.

Women love community.

Women who “commune” talk about food and kids and chocolate.

And chocolate means Nutella.

Any OPPORTUNITY I have to eat it is always a good thing!

And that my friends is why almost every thought in my head can always find its way to eating Nutella! (YES! It’s good to be back at Five Minute Friday!)

Five Minute Friday!

I love Fridays! Thanks to Lisa Jo at the Gypsy Mama it’s the time when I can just leave my mind to wander and my fingers to roam…trusting the Writer to steer me at will. Journaling whatever flits across my brain for five minutes straight. No backtracking, no spell checking, no stopping until that beepity beep! Want to join in the fun? Click on the button below. Today’s word is OPPORTUNITY.

Blessings!

So what do you take every OPPORTUNITY to do? Is there anything else on your heart today? Join in the conversation below to share in the blessings!

    You, and my mom both, with the Nutella. She has it on her toast every morning for breakfast. I won’t try it because I can tell by the looks of it that I would not be able put it down. I already have a huge list of things that daily test my self-control. Ha!

      What can I say? Nutella brings out some strong feelings in a lot of us. :) I am torn…I should tell you to definitely try it because you don’t know what you’re missing but I understand the whole “not even going there”. But should you ever decide to add something to your huge list this would be a GREAT addition! :) Ha! Ha!

    Oh. My. Goodness! i thought I was the only person on the planet with a schizo brain that could chase rabbit trails straight to the chocolate shop! I was with you every second of the way. Reason #157 why I love you, your writing and want you to teach me how to ride a horse. Maybe it’s just because I want to come visit the warm. I’ve gotten soft since leaving Chicago and this chilly weather is just not doing it for me. I think I need some hot chocolate! See how I did that? <3

    • http://www.newequus.com/ Mindy @ New Equus

      Ha! Ha! Unfortunately we were both in the schizo brain line! :) Must have had “Chocolate Shop” over the door or something! I LOVE your train of thought…and that’s #210 on my list why I love you!

      And the horse thing? Anytime! ;)
