Bitter Sweet

There is something about food and drink that brings comfort to so many people.. I guess thats why I find joy in cooking.. Yes, I do love to eat but I find that baking a dessert or making someone a home cook meal brings warmth to their hearts.. ( My husband would shake his head and say silly silly just about now.. )
When i was 14 years old I went out to the midwest to visit family.. it was back in 1996 that God brought Darrell and Karen DeGreve into my life.. I find that it was no mistake.. ONly a few months before I met them I was in the hospital for O.D.
Life at home was tough and I thought that would be a quick fix.. But God had plans for me.. and brought this couple as my "comfort food"..
they were warmth to my heart.. AND still are. I titled this post as bitter sweet.. because we don't get to see each other often and it really leaves a bitter sort of feeling in my heart.. BUT when we are together..! Its like Thanksgiving Day!..
I love you D and K..
