He was conceived by the union of divine grace and human disgrace. He who breathed the breath of life into the first man is now Himself a man breathing His first breath. The King of kings now sleeping in a cow-pen. The Creator of oceans and seas and rivers afloat in the womb of His mother. God sucking His thumb. The Alpha and Omega learning His multiplication tables. He who was once surrounded by the glorious stereophonic praise of adoring angels now hears the lowing of cattle, the bleating of sheep, the stammering of bewildering shepherds. He who spoke the universe into being now coos and cries. Omniscient Deity counting His toes… From the robes of eternal glory to the rags of swaddling clothes. The omnipresent Spirit, whose being fills the galaxies, confined to the womb of a peasant girl. Infinite power learning to crawl.
Combine 1 1/3 cup flour and next 8 ingredients; beat at Low speed of
electric mixer until well blended. Increase speed of mixer to medium, and
beat 2 additional minutes; stir in remaining flour. Cover dough, and chill
at least 1 hour. Divide dough in half. Working with one portion at a time,
place dough on a heavily floured surface; roll out to 1/2 inch thickness.
Cut dough with a floured doughnut cutter. Heat 2-3 inches of oil to 375 F.;
drop in 3-4 doughnuts at a time. Cook about 1 minute or until golden on one
side; turn and cook other side, about 1 minute. Drain on paper towels.
Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar, if desired. Yield: about 2 dozen.
