Mathainn mhath/ Guid mairnin! Here's a lovely pot of Scottish Breakfest tea for the table, with a wee pitcher of fresh whole milk from the farm down the road. Wind's whistling and whirling at our place--hard to get the woodstove roaring this morning, so there's still a slight chill in the air. Hence the tea! (JennieG-- the date and ginger slice is perfectly delicious!) Jerry-- the way I read it, Job and Doubting Thomas have a lot in common: they're like people who love their country enough to challenge & question their leaders. They demonstrate their faith by being bold questioners, and it is that level of intense engagement that earns them a blessing in the end. Y'know, kinda like some folk musicians... Back to the table later. For now I gotta go feed the chickens. Cheers! --Cuilionn
