Name: Deep-Fried Baby Artichokes (Mf)
Ingredients: 16 oz Baby artichokes; quartered, or two large artichokes; Flour for dredging; 2 lg Eggs; beaten lightly; 3 c Fresh bread crumbs; Combination olive and vegetable oil; for deep frying

Perhaps most of all, our children need to hear that we love them. And why do we love them? Simply because they are our children. Period! They do not earn our love, nor can they lose our love regardless of what they do. This is modeling the divine love of God. Why does He love us? Because He chooses to do so. The love is unconditional and not based on our performance. And the Bible says the only reason we love Him is because He first loves us (1 Jn. 4:19). And how did He show that loved? Through His own sacrifice. “In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins” (1 John 4:10). Children can easily see where your priorities are and where your love is directed.
