Name: Easter Goody Nests
Ingredients: Dried flaked coconut; Green food coloring; PAM (or comparable non-sticking spray), optional; 6 tb (3/4 stick) margarine or butter; 1 pk (10 oounce) regular marshmallows (about 40); 6 c Corn flakes (or, substitute Rice Krispies); 1 Marshmallow chicken for each "nest"; Several jelly beans of jelly bellies for each "nest"; Cardstock (for poem); Clear plastic wrap (to protect completed nests); Custard cups (optional)

Husbands, do you love your wives enough to die for them? Wives, do you love your husbands enough to live for them? That is what the latter part of Ephesians 5 is all about. The husband must learn to love his wife as Jesus Christ loves His church. A husband, if need be, should be willing to give up his life for his wife. On the other hand, a wife should so love her husband that she is willing to live for him. She must be willing to pour her life into being his helper. This involves living for him, just as the church is required to live for Jesus Christ.

INGREDIENTS

		Dried flaked coconut
		Green food coloring
		PAM (or comparable non-sticking spray), optional
6	tb	(3/4 stick) margarine or butter
1	pk	(10 oounce) regular marshmallows (about 40)
6	c	Corn flakes (or, substitute Rice Krispies)
1		Marshmallow chicken for each "nest"
		Several jelly beans of jelly bellies for each "nest"
		Cardstock (for poem)
		Clear plastic wrap (to protect completed nests)
		Custard cups (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Tint coconut green. Set aside until dry.
2. Spray PAM inside custard cups. Set aside. (If you don't have custard
cups, omit this step.)
3. Put all but two teaspoons (1/3 cup) margarine or butter in large
saucepan. Cook over low heat until melted.
4. Stir in marshmallows. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until
marshmallows melt and mixture is syrupy.
5. Remove pan from heat and stir in cereal.
6. Butter your fingers with remaining 2 teaspoons butter or margarine.
Working quickly, form cereal mixture into balls.
~ If you are using the custard cups, press each ball against bottom and
sides of each cup, forming a nest.
~ If you are not using custard cups, simply make free- form nests
sufficiently large to hole the marshmallow chicken and a few jelly beans or
jelly bellies.
7. Sprinkle a little green-tinted coconut over each nest to simulate grass.
8. Place a few jelly beans or jelly bellies over the grass (varying the
colors) to simulate eggs.
9. Place a yellow marshmallow chicken in the middle of the nest (so that
the mama hen appears to be surrounded by her eggs).
20. If you _KNOW_ that _ALL_ of the recipients are Christian, print the
following quotation onto cardstock. (The poem adds a wonderful touch, but
only if all of the recipients are Christian ... e. g., it would be wholly
inappropriate for a public school class comprised of children of different
faiths.) Posted to EAT-L Digest 13 Mar 97 by Teasel <teasel@JUNO.COM> on
