I’ve been stewing a lot lately and I decided that I needed to get back to cooking.
Today I will be mixing up some Ugly Grumbly Pie. This might sound daunting to you, but it’s really quite easy. All you have to do is mash up some hate. Then cut in a fair amount of prejudice. Cram in all the negativity you can find. Sprinkle on equal amounts of fear, jealousy, ignorance and intolerance. Finally dash in a bit of fanaticism and self righteousness and bake until slightly charred on the ends. I caution you, this is a really tough pie to swallow, but if you chew on it enough, it will become part of you and take over your soul.
If you want to try a sweeter recipe that goes down much smoother, you might want to give this recipe for Lovely Peace Compote with Humble Bits a whirl. This one takes a little more time and effort on your part. You might have to go back several times to get it just right. First, you have to put your ego off to the side, so it doesn’t contaminate the mix. Next, find all the love, sweetness, compassion and broadmindedness that you have. Make sure you pat it in all together nice and solid. Pick out all the bitter pieces and toss them in the garbage. Then throw in some understanding, but don’t let any judgment get in or it will become cloudy. Cover it with a blanket of harmony. Bake until it is all warm inside. Take out and only let cool ever so slightly. Eat a little everyday until it becomes part of your regular diet and it will make you a much stronger, healthier person. Feed your mind, body and spirit with goodness and you will get health in return in more ways than one.
Please let me know how your attempts come out and if you have any suggestions to make them better. I welcome all feedback.
