Okay, okay, after two attempts at the cake recipe, its not as good as I hoped it would be. Half of my family loved it and half didn't care for it. But here's a tried and true one that's sure to please. Only cut it into teeny-tiny pieces cause it is some-kinda rich! Its called chocolate & peanut butter fudge...
Ingredients & directions: mix the following together and spread into a greased dish (9 by 13) 1 cup butter, 2 cups confectionery sugar, 1 cup peanut butter, 1 & 3/4 graham cracker crumbs. Then melt 1/2 cup more peanut butter and 1 cup of chocolate chips in a pan on the stove. Pore this over the crumb mixture. Lastly, sprinkle a little more graham cracker crumbs over the top and then place in the fridge to harden (it doesn't take long). Then...enjoy!
In my devotions yesterday in the book of Mark, I read about two ladies...the widow who gave all she had and Mary who anointed Jesus. The Lord showed me the widow gave all, small as it was, because she wanted to. The scripture says "of her want." Why did she want to? Because she LOVED him! And Mary..the scripture said of her... that she did all she could do. Again, why? Because she LOVED him! Question: Do I love him enough to give my all? Have I done all I could for him today? If I constantly remember all he's done for me in the past, all he is doing for me in my life now, and all he's promised to do in the future....these two things would come naturally for me. Just a thought...

Mrs. Ralph,
Yum, that fudge recipe sounds tasty! My siblings and I make mug cakes occasionally. Certainly not the best-tasting cake in the world, but they don't taste too bad when you have a chocolate craving. =D (chuckle)
I appreciated your thoughts on the widow and Mary. Surrendering to the Lord our best--our all--makes serving Him that much more sweeter. We need to keep our eyes on Him!
God bless and keep you!
