This blog...

...is a compilation of my favorite recipes. They have been collected over several years found in various places: the internet, magazines, and cookbooks to name a few. These recipes are meals that I consider to "feed more than your body". These are meals that I hope nurish the heart and soul of those who eat them. I hope that when you have cleaned your plate, you feel like you have taken part in more than just a meal-that you have taken part in something bigger than yourself and food. Whether it is culture, your local place of living, or the life of the plant or those who share this planet, I hope these meals help your family-and mine-to appreciate that we are more than just beings consuming food; we are all connected. And more than that, I hope that these meals help you remember how fortunate you are and that "Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.".

Resurrection Rolls

Crescent Rolls
Melted Butter
Large Marshmallows
Cinnamon
Sugar

Oven at 350.

Give each child a triangle of a crescent roll. This represents the cloth that Jesus was wrapped in.

Read Matthew 27:57-61

Give each child a marshmallow. This represents Jesus.
Have the child dip the marshmallow in the melted butter. This represents the oils of Jesus' embalming.
Now dip the buttered marshmallow in the cinnamon sugar mixture. This represents the spices used to anoint the body.
Wrap the coated marshmallow tightly in the crescent roll. (Bring up the sides to completely seal the marshmallow.) This represents wrapping Jesus' body after death.
Place in the over for 10-12 minutes. (This represents the tomb).
Let the rolls cool slightly. When the children open their rolls they will discover Jesus is no longer there-HE IS RISEN!
