MY FAVORITE RECIPE




MY FAVORITE RECIPE

From Verna Aldred (poem included with our wedding gift, 1973)


Take two heaping cups of patience,
Two hearts, full of love,
Two handsful of generosity.

Add generous dashes of laughter,
two full cups of understanding,
and two cups of loyalty.

Mix well and sprinkle generously with kindness.
Add plenty of trust and honesty to one another.

Above all else have faith in God,
and remember to give Him thanks for all things large or small.

Stay as sweet as you are...that's why you fell in love!
Spread this irresistible delicacy over a lifetime,
And, I guarantee a very happy marriage and I hope for many, many years.

Bake this at a "moderate" temperature for years and years
and you will find the frosting grows more delectable.
