Now not everything that we get is "organic", but recently I read in 1 Timothy 4:4-5 "For everything God made is good, and we may eat it gladly if we are thankful for it, and if we ask God to bless it, for it is made good by the Word of God and prayer." So this verse convinced me that everything I eat need not be entirely organic. If God brings it may way and I am thankful for it and ask His blessing on the food, it is good to eat.
So I took the potatoes and milk the Lord provided and started making a pot of potato soup.
Then I used the peanut butter and made up a batch of peanut butter cookies, which I gave the boys as a snack when I picked them up from school.
We prayed over our meal and we are most certainly thankful for the Lord's blessing. Hmm, next I will have to come up with a way to enjoy that chorizo.

Such a bounty to be enjoyed in such a tummy-warming fashion. :o) I love potato soup and I love peanut butter cookies, and both look so delish in your pictures.
Chorizo. Mmmm. I say take a little bit of it (freezing the rest for later) and fry it up with onions and potatoes with scrambled eggs on the side along with sour cream and orange slices. :o)

You are so right! I love the way you look at things. I also love potato soup and peanut butter cookies! My mom always made potato soup in the winter, so it's one of my comfort foods.
