Thoughts of the glory of Christ are too high and too hard for us. We cannot delight in them for very long without becoming weary and turning away from them. We are unspiritual, our thoughts and desires being taken up with other things. If we would stir ourselves to believe “the things the angels desire to look into”, our spiritual understanding and strength would increase daily. We would then show more of the glory of Christ by the way we live and death itself would be welcome to us!

This is acutally more a method than a recipe, but given the recent requests
for Halloween goodies I thought it might be of interest:
Prepare two cakes in bundt pans, cool completely.  Color most of the
frosting a deep orange, reserving about 1/2 cup, which should be colored
black (you may also use dark chocolate fudge frosting)
Place one bundt cake upside down (rounded side on the bottom) on cake
plate; frost top only. Place second bundt cake flat-side down on top of
first cake. Frost entire cake with orange frosting, making up and down
motions with spatula to simulate pumpkin.
Insert Ho-Ho in the middle of the top of the bundt cake to make the stem.
Use black frosting to make eyes, nose, mouth, etc.  Black rope licorice may
also be used.
I originally saw this in Parents Magazine about two years ago.  It has been
a favorite for our family celebrations since then!
