Etsy, Ebay, & Curry!

Etsy, Ebay & Curry; three things that I thoroughly enjoy!  It sounds random, but I promise there is purpose behind the title of this post.

Let me begin with Etsy.  Have I mentioned that I LOVE Etsy?  Because I do!
It is a one stop shopping trip of hundreds and hundreds of handmade creations by so many talented people from around the world.  And it can all be done while sitting in a comfy chair and sipping on a cup of coffee!  I likey.... A LOT! ;)

So, there's my Etsy spill and here's my own personal Etsy ad.  After a much needed break from things, I am now back and slowly adding items to my Etsy shop again, Teapots and Robots.  And even better than that, I have new prices that I think you'll love!  I will also be adding some completely new items in the coming month that I hope you'll love.  I would so appreciate if you took a minute to take a peek at my shop. If you like what you see, then pass it along to some friends and please let me know what you think in the comments. I love to hear from you! :)

Now, moving onto Ebay.  I am very new to the whole Ebay scene, but since the local store where I sold many of my pieces had to close their doors (sniff sniff), I took home several pieces with me.  I don't have the time to seek out other local stores and I don't have the room in my house to store everything, especially when I am itching to make more!  So, I listed some of my older inventory on Ebay and I think you'll like those prices too.  But hurry because the bidding ends in just 20 hours! Check it out here.  If you would like to view all of the items I have listed on Ebay, simply the click the "see other items" link on the right of the page.

And last, but certainly not least, let's talk about some delicious curry! Do you have a love for curry and Indian food in general like me?  Have you ever tried it?

As I am typing this, I am finishing my delicious meal, Alu Methi, a traditional Indian dish made with Potatoes (Alu) and Fenugreek (Methi), served over rice and a side of flat bread. Delicious!!!

If you are local, I have the perfect solution for you, Grace For Nepal.

Grace for Nepal is a ministry that was started by one man whom had visited Nepal on a mission trip and has never been the same since.  God burdened his heart for the orphans in Nepal in a BIG way.

When he returned to the states, his heart and thoughts were still in Nepal with those children.  He wanted so badly to help them in some way and then God called Him to do just that.  This man is Steve.  Steve is just a man but he serves the Almighty God and God is using this ministry to provide for and bless the orphans in Nepal.

Steve is an amazing cook and specifically cooks some really tasty Indian and Thai dishes, and did so long before his first trip to Nepal.
As he thought and prayed about what he could do to help these children, God gave him an idea and so it all began; a website created, menus printed, and curry cooking! You can place your order for some delicious curry; Steak, Chicken, & Vegetarian (to name a few) complete with rice and homemade flat bread for a mere $6 donation and......it will be delivered to you for lunch on Friday!  What a deal!  You can enjoy a delicious meal for only $6 while helping to provide food for the orphans in Nepal!

Please take a minute to go check out the website and read a little more about this amazing ministry, Grace For Nepal.

If you are not local, then there is still something you can do to help. 
All of the work that goes into this ministry is done by Steve and a team of volunteers.  They come together every Thursday evening and prepare and cook everything, sometimes until the late evening and early morning hours. Then on Friday morning, more volunteers help Steve heat and package all of the orders and deliver them.

The monetary expense of this ministry is provided by these same people and donations that have been made by many others.  God is in control and is providing and blessing this ministry.  This is also a way that you can be apart of it.  Every penny that is not spent on actual supplies is sent to the orphans in Nepal; four to five dollars of the $6 you pay for a meal is sent to Nepal.

And in the months to come, there will be another new and exciting way to help these children, through this same ministry!  Soon, you will be able to order some very unique items imported from Nepal and a portion of those proceeds will also be sent directly to help these children.  More on that to come.
