After-dinner Wontons – We Love God!

The main reason [we do not forgive others is] because we don't want to. You might not want to forgive because you want to see them suffer for what they did. You might not want to forgive because you want them to feel the same hurt that they made us to feel. You might not want to forgive because you want to give them the message that if they hurt me then they will feel pain also, so they better think twice about hurting me again. You might not want to forgive because you are angry or frustrated. You might not want to forgive because you want revenge. You might not want to forgive because you enjoy playing the victim. You might not want to forgive because you really don't like that person and you want to keep it that way.

"Crispy, sugar-dusted wonton wrappers cache a sweet chewy filling of
fruit and nuts, adding a perfect touch to the end of the meal." For
filling, in a medium bowl toss together pears, apples, cherries and
lemon juice. In a large skillet cook fruit mixture in 2 tablespoons
butter over medium heat 7 minutes. Reduce heat. Stir in Marsala,  nuts,
cinnamon and ginger. Cook 3 minutes or until liquid has  disappeared
stirring often. Stir in syrup; set aside. For each wonton  spoon 2
teaspoons filling into the center of a wrapper. Lightly  moistened
edges of wrapper with water. Fold top edge of wrapper over  filling to
opposite edge making half-moon. Press edges together to  seal. Arrange
wontons on a greased baking sheet. Brush with the  melted butter.
Sprinkle with coarse sugar. Bake at 350F 12-15 minutes  or until
golden. Cool slightly. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Makes 36  wontons.
