Things do not change; we change. Henry David Thoreau

This is true -- you can't sit around and wait or change -- you have to get out there and make change.  Be part of the change.  If you want to learn to cook, get together with someone who can teach you or take a class.  If you want to learn a computer program, get with someone or take a class.  Nothing will change with out you putting some effort into it.  You will not just wake up tomorrow and know something new.  Sure you can teach yourself, but you have to put an effort into what ever you want to learn or do.

Don't depend on someone coming from out of nowhere and begging you to learn something for your own good.  Not going to happen either.  Let's get to it !

A lot of you have had this since I baked it not too long ago for a function at church.  Most people loved it and wanted the recipe.  Here it is -- I hope you enjoy it.
