Artichoke Preparing For Cooking Whole

I am His by purchase and I am His by conquest; I am His by donation and I am His by election; I am His by covenant and I am His by marriage; I am wholly His; I am peculiarly His; I am universally His; I am eternally His. Once I was a slave but now I am a son; once I was dead but now I am alive; once I was darkness but now I am light in the Lord; once I was a child of wrath, an heir of hell, but now I am an heir of heaven; once I was Satan's bond-servant but now I am God's freeman; once I was under the spirit of bondage but now I am under the Spirit of adoption that seals up to me the remission of my sins, the justification of my person and the salvation of my soul.

INSTRUCTIONS

Rinse artichokes. Cut off the tip of each large leaf with a scissors,
so you won't be pricked by the sharp tips when you're eating the
leaves. Then with a knife, cut off the top inch or so of the
artichoke. Cut off stems if you want; you can pare them and cook them
in the pot alongside the artichoke.  Baby artichokes, of l/2-inch
diameter or less, do not need trimming.  Cook immediately after
trimming to avoid discoloration. Lemon may be  used.  After trimming
artichokes wash your hands well; they tend to give your  fingers a
bitter taste and will affect the next food you pick up and  eat.
