Bon Appetite? What’s for dinner at your house?

:mdrmdr: “bringing in the sheaves”  Awe ... you sure had a gentle giant of a dog, Dan.

I’m leaning towards the heavenly animals will have new bodies kind of like our glorified ones in that they can eat and not make any more smelly cluster mounds of  waste.  I think they will be eating grass, grain or  veggies so perhaps they will be trained to go in the gardens?   Or if they do have accidents indoors ... I’m almost positive T.R  will be volunteering for clean up duties. B-)

"But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant."  So maybe TR could become the Grand Poobah maybe?

Or maybe he could develop a new line of Roomba automatically roving cleaning machines...  Think of it.  Our own beloved TR, the Roomba Grand Poobah!

:mdrmdr: :mdrmdr:  Yes, T.R. the  “Roomba Grand Poobah! :dieu:    Just give him a few gallons of brandy egg nog :wacko: and he will brainstorm the grandest roomba picker upper for the Kingdom castle. :yes:   His voice command of “Yabba dabba doo” will have it running. B-)

My dog is sooo afraid of that machine!  He barks at it and then when it changes direction and comes towards him ... he quickly makes a running jump for the sofa and hides under a blanket.

Brunch - egg omelet with cheddar cheese and sauté onions.  Hot Cocoa with marshmallows, whip cream and 3 cherries.

Dinner - small steak, bake potato, salad.

LOL!

The only thing grand about me is my ego.  I'm hoping to loose that forever!

Indeed we shall enjoy His animal creation in glory.  And will also enjoy satisfying our every desire in Heaven, culinary and otherwise!  Apart from this, the specifics elude me.

I dare say that I don't expect animal droppings to occur in Heaven.  No death, no waste, no mess!

But if anyone's ideal Heaven clashes with mine, I'll just blink it out of existence.  How's that for ego?!

TR

Well I don’t think you have an ego ... you’ve been such a good sport putting up with all our teasing. :yes:

I agree with you ... no worries of animal accidents in heaven.  But if there is ... well then you can wish it gone and our guardian valet or footmen angels will suddenly appear with a mop and heaven scent liquid cleaner and they will have everything sparkly clean and golden once more!   B-)

Speaking of Bon Appetite, may the Lord give us all a foretaste of Heaven in this life!

TR

Making BBQ chicken in the crockpot, the sides will be honey glazed carrots, homemade coleslaw and applesauce.

Dessert will be a Banana Split - with vanilla ice cream, caramel topping, whip cream, walnuts, cherries.

TR, you volunteered, "But if anyone’s ideal Heaven clashes with mine, I’ll just blink it out of existence."  Sounds a lot like Barbara Eden of the "I Dream of Jeannie" sitcom back in our youth.  So if she's up there blinking back, who should win?  It's good that Solomon will be around somewhere.

Good catch Dan!  Even Solomon couldn't figure out women.  Just human nature.

TR

Yep, Solomon sure was a complex character with all that wisdom he was granted from the Lord.

From “Men of the Bible” by Ann Spangler & Robert Wolgemuth

He orchestrated the building of a palace and the temple, a permanent house of worship and an apt dwelling place for the Ark of the Covenant.  Built to elegant specifications, this holy building mirrored Solomon’s love for God and his eye for beauty and attention to the smallest detail.

Politically, he organized the kingdom into 12 districts and appointed governors over each one.

Educationally, Solomon held clinics and “described plant life, from the cedar of Lebanon to the hyssop that grew out of the walls.  He taught the people about animals and birds, ... gasp ... reptiles and fish :negative: .”  A lover of the arts, Solomon spoke 3,000 proverbs and his songs numbered 1,005.

But in the end, Solomon’s wisdom could not save him.  All that wisdom and great accomplishments Solomon was a failure because of his unwillingness to “keep God’s statues”.  His insatiable appetite for foreign women was his down fall.

700 wives 300 concubines :wacko:  I wonder if he could remember all their names and their birthdays and anniversaries? :mail:   Or perhaps he was smart enough to just call them all “my dear ... my lovely one” and gave them all gifts everyday since it was bound to be their birthday.  :mdrmdr:
