God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Sure, people can counsel us on some strategies to overcome sin such as Bible memorization, prayer, accountability partners and providing no opportunity for the flesh, but our primary hope to be victorious is not faith in a technique but rather, 2 Corinthians 3:3, faith in a promise that we have power through “the Spirit of the living God.” Never shall a sin again, if we are truly saved, be able to dominate, enslave or defeat us. By God’s grace through the New Covenant provision of the Holy Spirit, we can rise out of the gutter of sin and stand joyously with the freedom we now have in Christ. We are as Paul said in 2 Corinthians 5:17 completely new creatures!
When you are tempted to any vanity – set the blessed Redeemer before you, consider His example, and ask yourself, “How would Jesus, my Lord and Master, have acted in such a case? Would He have spent His time upon such trifles? Would He have spoken such and such; or done this or the other thing, which I am solicited to do? And shall I give way to that which would be a manifest deviation from His holy example? God forbid!”

_Martha Stewart's Menus for Entertaining_ has a recipe for Duck-Filled
Beggar's Purses. Don't see why you couldn't substitute your filling of
choice. I'm not sure what to substitute for the chive tie, I'm sure
someone would have a good suggestion. Here are the assembly instructions,
excluding the duck filling. I don't know how big the ones in the movie
were, but she mentions these being bite sized. Hope it works for you!
"To assemble, spread 1 sheet of phyllo dough on a clean surface keeping the
rest of the dough covered with a damp dish towel. Brush the entire surface
with butter, then top with another sheet of phyllo. Repeat twice for a
total of 4 sheeps of phylo dough one on top of another brushing butter
between each layer. Using a sharp knife cut the layered dough into 6
squares. Place a heaping tablespoon of filling in the center of each
phyllo square. Pull the corners up to the center and gather the dough
pinching it closed over the filling. Tie each bundle securely with a single
chive. Using sharp scissors, snip the dough off one inch above the chive
ribbon so that the tops are even. The purses can be frozed on
parchment-lined sheets, well wrapped, at this point. To serve, preheat the
oven to 350 F. Place the purses on baking sheeps and bake for 10-15
minutes until golden brown."
