This is ever the nature of true confession of sin, true brokenness. It is the confession that my sin is not just a mistake, a slip, a something which is really foreign to my heart (“Not really like me to have such thoughts or do such things!”), but that it is something which reveals the real ‘I’; that shows me to be the proud, rotten, unclean thing God says I am; that it really is like me to have such thoughts and do such things. It was in these terms that David confessed his sin, when he prayed, “Against Thee, Thee only, have I sinned and done this evil in Thy sight, that Thou mightest be justified when Thou speakest and be clear when Thou judgest” (Psalm 51:4).

When surfing the net a couple of weeks ago I came across this site:
www.virtualcities.com -- 1st Traveler's Choice Internet Cookbook. This
recipe was submitted by the Echo Lake Inn in Ludlow, Vermont. I made it
last Shabbes, and it is definitely a keeper!
Marinate vegetables in vinegar, oil, salt and pepper. Bring chicken stock
to a rapid boil and add couscous all at once, stirring rapidly. Remove from
heat cover and let sit 5 to 7 minuets or until all liquid is absorbed.
Place on a flat baking pan and separate with a fork. Cool in refrigerator.
Blend marinated vegetables with couscous.
