Poppyseed Strudel – We Love God!

We must not become so "spiritual" in our Christian life that we forget about meeting physical needs, and we must not become so "worldly" in meeting those needs that we lose sight of God's ultimate design. Or, to say it in specifically "pro-life" terms, we must not become so "spiritual" in our Christian life that we write off the daily slaughter of 4,000 innocent human beings as a political issue (beyond our jurisdiction), and we must not become so "worldly" in intervening for them that we lose sight of the bigger picture (reconciling people to Christ through holiness and love). This balance is the essence of pure and undefiled religion.

Dissolve the yeast and 1 T of sugar in the warm milk, add 1 T of

(bubbles will indicate active yeast).  Now add slowly all above
ingredients and beat, dough should be soft, if necessary add more  warm
milk.  Lift the dough from the bowl and knead on a floured board until
blisters appear on the dough's surface. Shape the dough into a ball,
return it to the bowl, cover with wax paper. Let rise for one hour in
a warm place (100').  Now divide the dough in two balls, roll it out to
about 1 finger  thickness, spread the poppyseed filling and roll
together. You will  have 2 strudels. Preheat the over to 325'. Bake 1
hour.  Di Note:  I worked with Raisa when I was with CBS.  She had come
over  from Russia and she and I would chat on the phone (she lived in
New  York). One day, I described this strudel thing and asked her if
she  knew what it was and she sent me her recipe.  Very good.  Di
