Unexpected blessings

About twenty years ago this fall, I was busy on a Saturday morning, preparing for the cold New York winter ahead. As I shifted the warmer clothing to the front of the closet, I came across my favorite coat. It's funny how after 6 months and article of clothing can feel new again. I donned the coat and out of habit, put my hand in the pocket. What's that paper ... A note? A receipt? Oh, it's money! A hundred dollar bill!!

It was one of those moments when you stop ... and express gratitude for unexpected blessings. It's not something you can plan. It just happens when it does and everything is as it should be at that moment.

Similarly, I met my husband through an unknown neighbor, discovered meaning in unexpected experiences, and found one of my favorite recipes inside an unopened box of quinoa – Coconut Curry Quinoa Stew. Oh yeah! 

Get the recipe!
