YOU ARE A CHRISTMAS CAKE
(newfoundland christmas cake recipe)

1 cup of butter of faith--to make life run smoothly.
1 cup of sugar--life needs it's sweetness
5 eggs to make it light--this is prayer, which uplifts
1/2 lb of nuts--humor. Nuts to crack like good humour--
be sure they are clean!
1/4 lb of cherries--colour the cake like music on a dull morning
1 lb of raisins are old friends, always a delight
1 lb of currants are new friends, always interesting
1/4 tsp of allspice puts tang in it like initative
1/4 tsp of cinnamon is ambition
2 tsp of baking powder to make it rise. this is the holy spirit
1/2 c of pure fresh whole milk--
the perfect food which is the word from god
1/2 tsp of salt called wisdom
3 c of flour sifted finely to fold the whole cake together--
Love blends all life into one

Mix all well together and bake in the slow oven of experience.
When well done, allow to cool.
Add frosting to surround it with beauty.
Add red candles to light for all to see;
then slice the cake and share with others.


MERRY CHRISTMAS, my friend

love, NSangel
