Bible Cake

Probably the last place you’d expect to find a cake recipe is in the Bible. That is just where to look for the ingredients of this cake. You’ll enjoy hunting up the references and the mixing is simple. It is a most delicious fruit cake and the recipe is from an old English cook book:

Ingredients:

#  1 – 1/2 pound of Judges 5: verse 25 (last clause)
#  2 – 1/2 pound of Jeremiah 6:20 (Sweet Cane)
#  3 – 1 tablespoon of I Samuel 14:25
#  4 -  3 of Jeremiah 17:11
#  5 – 1/2 pound of I Samuel 30:12
#  6 – 1/2 pound of Nahum 3:12 (chopped)
#  7 – 1/4 cup of Numbers 17:8 (blanched and chopped)
#  8 – 4 cups of I Kings 4:22
#  9 – Season to taste with 11 Chronicles 9:9
#10 – A pinch of Leviticus 2:13
#11 – 1 teaspoon of Amos 4:5
#12 – 3 tablespoons of Judges 4:19


Preparation:

  • Beat #1, #2 and #3 to a cream. Add #4, one at a time, still beating.
  • Add #5, #6 and #7, and beat again.
  • Add #8, #9, #10 and #11, having previously mixed them together, and lastly #12.

SECOND ANNUAL OPEN HOUSE

The Polish Hall has once again started the tradition of inviting the public to our hall in an open house atmosphere. This custom was reintroduced last year.

This event is organized to allow the public and members access to our hall. The community can come in to view our hall and discuss details of events, memberships and bookings with our executive.

The open house will be held on Boxing Day, December 26, 2008. After a full day of Boxing Day shopping, we invite everyone to the Polish Hall for socializing, drinks and light snacks.

The open house will begin at 6 pm. At 9 p.m. we will open the microphone to everyone for a Friday night of Karaoke. Karaoke will continue until 1a.m.

Get Your Kids to Eat Healthy

Helping children develop healthy eating habits is a struggle for many parents. The vast majority of children don’t eat enough fruits and vegetables. Many parents count juice as fruit, but juice consumption is much less nutritious, don’t have needed fibre and excess juice consumption has been associated with obesity in some children. Fruits and vegetables contribute key vitamins and minerals, as well as fibre, to a child’s diet and are vital in preventing many chronic diseases later in life.

Prevent Blisters With Antiperspirants

Antiperspirant reduces the sweating that creates friction, and friction leads to blisters. Wash and dry your feet every day for five to six days before a major walk, run or hike. Cover your entire foot, in between toes, tops of toes, backs of heels and bottoms of feet. Whether you use stick, spray or roll-on, just make sure you didn’t miss any spot. Just one missed spot could lead to sweating and blisters. By reducing sweating, antiperspirant also helps existing foot blisters to heal faster. CLICK HERE to find out more health tips.

So, if you want to do practical, efficient healthy gardening, and do it with the least possible fuss and loss of time, than this is your “first aid” guide.
