Name: Cabbage and Then Some

While the spiritual heart is most important, most relationships start off based on physical attractiveness (see Song of Solomon). Therefore, I submit to you that we demonstrate love toward our spouse by reasonably maintaining our attractiveness. After all, according to Scripture our bodies belong not to ourselves, but to each other (1 Cor. 7:4). What we are seeing to avoid is the popular mentality that says, “Get the ring and let my attractiveness do its thing.” Moreover, if the relationships are working correctly, our death is the most painful thing our spouses and children will ever encounter. I’ve done my share of funerals. I’ve seen this up close and personal. So how can we say we love them by willfully speeding up the process toward a premature death simply due to physical neglect? Is it a loving act if our grandchildren live the majority of their lives without us because we chose an unhealthy lifestyle?

INGREDIENTS

1	cn	Rotel tomatoes
2	md	Size cabbages
1		Bunch green onions
1		White onion
1	cn	Corned beef
		Garlic; salt & pepper to taste
		Flour to thicken gravy

INSTRUCTIONS

Cut cabbage into quarters, cutting out the core. Discard the cores. Clean
the leaves thoroughly. Put into pot, cover with water and boil until almost
tender. Drain in a colander and then chop, not too small, but bite size
pieces.
Put aside.
Chop onions; fry in a little oil until tender, first the white onion, the
white part of the green onions and last the green part which should not be
fried long.
Add the tomatoes and fry down a short time. To this add hot water (about 1
cup), 1/2 can corned beef and cook about 20 minutes, stirring periodically.
If more gravy is needed, add the amount of water needed to cover the
cabbage when put into a casserole.
Butter an oven dish. Alternate layers of cabbage and corned beef gravy,
finish off with the comed beef (remaining half), broken into pieces and
then Italian bread crumbs. Bake long enough to brown the crumbs in a 350
degree oven.
