I took them family out for breakfast this morning. We went to Bagel Time Rest- aurant. They have a great egg, bagel and potatoes breakfast deal. It only cost us $28.57 (plus tip) to feed all eight of us. When we arrived a elder gentleman dining by himself noticed us and complimented us on being a nice family. Halfway into our meal as the gentleman left he approached me and offered this gift of $10 dollars. My heart was very touched by this gift because I was unsure if it was wise to dine out with money being tight right now. The gift confirmed in my heart that it was OK and that God doesn't just give us our daily bread but also gives us treats too.

Star Fruit from God
Karl Ruf from church gave us more Star Fruit. This time he also gave me a branch from his tree so I can grow my own tree.Were getting a lot of Star Fruit lately and are glad for if. It must be in season. Star Fruit has a very clean taste and we love having it for breakfast. It's sweet with a little tartness. My wife says is taste somewhere between an orange and a kiwi.
Although the photo doesn't show it, the fruit from Carl's tree are enormous. Each fruit is 3-4 times a bigger then the ones from Vicky's tree from around the block. Vicky also gives us a lot of Star Fruit (see below).
Onions, Cucumbes and a Pepper
These came for the Bonillas. I think someone in their church sells veggies. I don't know the details. I think they are on the end of their shelf life and were donated to the church. Members can pick through the produce they want.They were still were crisp and fresh

Crayons, Onions and Crouton
Mary brought these over. The crayons are from cleaning out a supply closet at school. The onions was a buy one get one free deal, she gave us the free one. The croutons are left over from a party. She is diabetic and cannot eat much bread so gave it to us.Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose
