We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

A cheerful spirit is one of the most valuable gifts ever bestowed upon humanity by a kind Creator. It is the sweetest and most fragrant flower of the Spirit, that constantly sends out its beauty and fragrance, and blesses everything within its reach. It will sustain the soul in the darkest and most dreary places of this world. It will hold in check the demons of despair, and stifle the power of discouragement and hopelessness. It is the brightest star that ever cast its radiance over the darkened soul, and one that seldom sets in the gloom of morbid fancies and forboding imaginations.

From the Ries area.  These bacon tarts can be made in two ways.  The
dough base is always  the same, however, the topping is different.
Dough  In a bowl, mix the flour and salt.  Dissolve the yeast and sugar
in  half the lukewarm milk.  Form a well in the flour, and pour the
yeast  mixture into this well. Dust the liquid with flour, and cover
the  bowl. Let rest, in a warm spot, for 1/2 hour.  Then add the melted
butter and knead and beat the dough until it starts to form small
bubbles. Shape into rounds that are about half a finger's width
thickness and about 5 inches in diameter.  Tweak the edges of the
dough into a raised rim. Cover the dough circles with  egg yolk and
then lightly press in the bacon and add the remainder of  the
ingredients, OR lard and then lightly press in the cracklings.  Season
with salt.  Bake at medium heat for 30 minutes.  Serve hot.  Serves 4.
