Garlic Rosemary Lamb Chops and Jogging

Sunday afternoon, David marinated lamb chops in some serious garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt and olive oil. They were delicious for dinner, with Gruyère-toasted-walnut-polenta and bright green buttered peas. They made good leftovers for Monday lunch, too. Thank you, my love!

The kids went out for a 45-minute jog this morning through the local Wildpark, before 8am. This after our day of skiing yesterday. Apparently that got them into a fitness mood.

Speaking of fitness, these men have finely tuned arm and leg movements:

Another great part of fitness: rest. It's rest week here. Or ski week, catch-up-on-things week, do-homework-at-a-leisurely-pace week, etc. Rest is good. It was instituted early on. And referred to often thereafter:

Six days do your work, but on the seventh day do not work, so that your ox and your donkey may rest and the slave born in your household, and the alien as well, may be refreshed.

Exodus 23:12

I like that God is concerned for our refreshment and rest. What consideration and forethought. He knows we get tired, since we're made of dust.
