Like a lot of kids, I had a Superman cake or different theme cakes, but then I hit the age where I think my mom thought I was ready for the German chocolate cake that she makes for my dad. Just the sight of that, the taste of that frosting, just reminds me of being at home with my mom and my dad and my sister and my friends.
My mother raised me in the church. I was not allowed to stay home on Sunday; there was no option. I sang in the choir all the way up until I went to college.
I actually started singing in church when I was about five years old. I remember looking at the choirs and just hearing all of those great big beautiful voices. And there was this one woman who could just wail. And I remember trying to sing like her when I was like going home.
I once choked on a chip at a friend's birthday when I was seven and had to be sent home, as I'd broken my collarbone coughing.
For those of you who do not know Him, choosing your eternal home is the most important decision you will ever make.
When my girlfriend's away, I cook a big vat of meaty pasta and sauce and eat that for about a week. Then I eat out the rest of the time. When she's home, we eat at home probably twice a week. I chop, she cooks.
No two composers were more totally at home in front of the piano than Debussy and Chopin, hands to keys to strings to sound waves to pen and paper in one perfect gesture of inspiration.
I will say one of my favorite Russian side dishes is beet salad. It is dehydrated beets chopped very finely with nuts. It is a great side dish. I would like to try to make this when I get home. The nuts make it!
After a lifetime of feeling at home in my plus-size body, I was a 27-year-old having self-esteem issues. Clothes shopping stopped being fun and became a chore; I couldn't wear the curve-showing styles I loved without Spanx - and I worried that my new body would affect my training.
I love to go home and do the chores and read.
I was brought up in a Christian home in Australia with a father who was very bold about his faith.
I was brought up in the modern world of all the luxury and the highlight of show business. I was born into a Christian home.
Being born in a Christian home does not make you a Christian.
I grew up in a Christian home with amazing parents.
It was only after 20 years of being dunked in the religious culture that I got caught up in 'religion.' I had no exposure to Christianity as a child. I was not raised in a Christian home. I became spiritually hungry in high school.
I grew up in a very devoutly Christian home.
In the first decade of my life, I came to know and love God, as I was raised in a Christian home and community.
I was raised in a Christian home and, in fact, my mother led me to Christ as a youngster.
In my house, I'm not allowed to shout at anybody. It's very strict. It's a very Christian home.
Most of the music I grew up listening to was not Christian music, although I definitely had a lot of that at home, too.
