Biscuit Battle

Hi, everyone! Page Turner here. Okay I know it's been a while since my last Monthly Food Entry, so here it is for August. Bon appetite!
              Imagine this: you're on the road, feeling lonely and so cold...not to mention hungry. You're stomach is rumbling and you need a little treat. If you're going to treat yourself you might as well do it right, so you decide for biscuits. But where? Bonjangles or Hardees? How do you know which one is better? Ah, dear reader, that is where I come in. Okay, so that's exactly what happened today and I have done scientific research, complete with pictures, to prove which is better. (In my personal, biased opinion...)
               It started with Bojangles. We drove into the drive through and ordered two steak biscuits for 6.99. We were starving and once we bit into them, we were happy, but not satisfied. We ate a bit, then folded it back up, our hunger for a good biscuit unmet.The biscuit was too doughy and heavy and there was hardly any butter on it. The steak was crunchy and thin, with a sweet peppery taste. Overall it was pretty good, but not what we wanted.
          We headed down the street to Hardees, where two steak biscuits were only 4.99. Yes! Instant score. The biscuit was crumbly and buttery, and it tasted like it had been fried. The steak was thick and juicy, and the batter tasted like rich gravy. Totally satisfying! And much cheaper!
                     Now some people like Bojangles better, so to be fair, I interviewed other biscuit eaters. The results showed that although I and my friend preferred Hardees, due to its succulently juicy meat and deep-fried buttery biscuits, the two biscuit eaters I interviewed declared their love for Bojangles. When asked why, one person said that the meat was better. Her companion agreed. He said that he had tried the mixing the two, but his favorite was Bojangles.
                                Ah, well. I still think that however delicious and satisfying Bojangles is, Hardees will always be my favorite. Come back tomorrow to see pictures and get the full interview!

Gilligan: the Mind Reader

I love the show "Gilligan's Island." In this old TV comedy, seven castaways are stranded on an island and are constantly looking for a way off--but poor, awkward Gilligan always messes it up. Once on the show, Gilligan finds a bush with beans that enable him to read others minds. How cool would that be! I mean, forget conversation barriers, awkwardness, finding the right words to say, etc, etc. Or is it? By the end of the show, the entire group was pitted against each other, for everyone could read each others thoughts. Thoughts are supposed to be hidden from others. Even though we are supposed to take every thought captive to Christ, I know I struggle. Ugly things pop into our minds--who would want to see that?  In science fiction, mind reading has always been seen as fascinating, bizarre, and a gift. In Gilligan's Island, the Professor admits that he thought it would create world peace. Hah. But the truth is, Someone knows every thought you've ever thunk, and w

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! Hi, I'm Paige Turner, and I'm back for the Christmas season. I'm looking forward to writing more on my blog and also celebrating one of my favorite times of the year! Christmas can be an exciting, cozy, comforting time, but it can also be filled with stress, doubt, and sadness as we think of those we miss. Wherever you are this Christmas season, I pray that you'll find peace in our Savior--something that we all need to be reminded of, including me. :) Christmas can also be an exciting time, full of joy--even during stress and sadness, a deeper kind of joy--about Jesus, our Healer and King.I'm looking forward to celebrating love, family (while eating some delicious food), but most importantly, Jesus, Immanuel, which means, "God with us." Merry Christmas!                                                                                     See you soon,                                                                                          

No Strings Attatched

"I've got no strings to hold me down, to make me fret, to make me frown!" sang little Pinocchio as he danced glibly around the stage, string-less and worry-less, as the other puppets look sadly on, connected by strings like true marionettes. Maybe you recognize this scene from the 1945 Disney Pinocchio movie. For some reason, that made me think about our strings. I think we pride ourselves to be like Pinocchio: chipper, happy, and totally independent (although not quite as wooden.) Well, in reality, we are totally dependent on God. Our talents, our future, our past, our present, and our circumstances are all in the hand's of God. Sure, our decisions change things, but God's in control; nothing we do happens without Him planning it. Good grief, we don't even control our body! You can't tell your cells to burn glucose to give you energy, or your heart to beat, or your stomach juices to digest the food. (Say it with me, eww . Very good.) But God looks after u
