    inRL Meetup & Stuffed French Toast {Monday Meals} - 2013-04-29 17:36:12-04

   

A few weeks ago I wrote about friendship & community. This past Saturday, several women joined Susan Huffman & I for coffee (& stuffed french toast & chocolate dipping station) to talk about this very subject.

Susan is one of my dearest friends who has “stayed” with me through thick & thin.

We watched a video about mentoring that inRL produced. It was a great catalyst for our discussion. Since Saturday, I’ve been thinking alot about mentoring, what it looks like, how to find a mentor. Over the next few days, I’ll share what God is teaching me.

In the meantime, let me share some pics from Saturday’s meetup and my recipe for Stuffed French Toast.

I need to photoshop myself into that picture :-)

We rolled kraft paper down the table as a table cloth. Writing on the kraft paper was so much fun. I wish I had seen this idea when I was hosting kids’ birthday parties.

Susan made chocolate ganache so we could dip fruit & roll in toppings. It was so much fun!
