For a special feature in french culinary magazine fricote, french food designer Emilie De Griottes developed dessert tarts that recreate pantone colour swatches. Berries, carrots, lemon, candies, and other foods are arranged upon a tart base, whose bottom is iced in white and marked with the pantone colour represented. Recipes for making the tarts are available in fricote issue number 6 (2012).
As a former GD student I feel this might be taking the color card obsession too far…
It is really cool though…

So what comes first music or words? “That question always stumbles me because I think you can’t have one without the other, the words are very important to me and I focus on writing lyrics. But music is what moves the people, it’s what gathers people music can take words to a place where mere words could not go.”

I’m an introvert, I like silence and solitude I like books written by dead people and I like to be left alone. And God is laughing at me every day with the job He has given me.
— Mark Driscoll
All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had me. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all people. And the Lord added to their numbers daily those who were being saved.
— Acts 2:44-47 (This, this is it! I think this is the answer to my question.)
Pursuing the heart of God first before relationships is worth the wait for a future of rich and full love.
The Shepherd laughed too. “I love doing preposterous things,” he replied. “Why, I don’t know anything more exhilarating and delightful than turning weakness into strength and fear into faith, and that which has been marred into perfection. If there is one thing more than another which I should enjoy doing at this moment it is turning a jellyfish into a mountain goat. That is my special work.

So I’m reading through Judges this morning and I just read through Samson, it’s a really entertaining and humorous piece of the bible that is intermixed with serious truth about simply faithfulness and obedience. The issues are definitely more complex than that, but if you break it down simply that’s what it covers. Anyways, just two verse chunks from it that were ‘funny’ but also examples of the consequences of sin.
Samson does have a good heart in the sense he obeys the feats of strength called on him by the Lord, and he follows the Spirit of the Lord in the destruction of the Phillistines but at the downside of being compromised by women and letting his motives be clouded by that. But I guess that means more glory to God than to Samson the man.
So the men of the city said to him on the seventh day before the sun went down,“What is sweeter than honey? And what is stronger than a lion?”
And he said to them,“If you had not plowed with my heifer, you would not have found out my riddle.” [Judges 14:18]
Then she said to him, “How can you say, ‘I love you,’ when your heart is not with me? You have deceived me these three times and have not told me where your great strength is?” It came about when she pressed him daily with her words and urged him, that this soul was annoyed to death. So he told her all that was in his heart… [Judges 16:15-17a]
