{ Recipe for a Happy Birthday }

 

Ingredients:

1- 5# bag of expectations

2 gallons water

1 cup possibilities

1 lb. gratefulness

1 cup sugar

3 1/2 cups whatever!

 

1. In a large bucket, mix expectations with 2 gallons water.  Stir until dissolved.
2. Dump this mixture outside. (Makes good compost.)
3. Chop possibilities into bite-sized chunks and set aside.
4. Using a blender, combine gratefulness with sugar and process until fine.
5. With fingers or a pastry blender, chop whatever! into coarse crumbs.
6. Layer the possibilities mixture alternately with the whatever!, sprinkling gratefulness / sugar mix liberally over each layer and on top.
7. Let sit 30 minutes, allowing flavors to combine.
8. Serve with coffee or tea.
9. Enjoy immediately, because it will be gone by tomorrow.
