I dug out from a packed box a spice I just love but havnt used ‘in my kitchen’ for a while. I actualy used to grab it off the shelf & literally shake it onto whatever I was making as if the actual spice of LOVE was being sprinkled into it LOL
K enough said, here;s the Actual words on each side & back of the the sweet, white spice box in red lettering:
Love
Spice for Living
Net WT. Immeasurable
Ingredients: Faithfulness, Gentleness, Goodness, Joy, Kindness, Patience, Peace, Perseverance, Protection, Trust, Truthfulness, & Unselfishness.
>isn’t that cool?<

THE STORY BEHIND “LOVE”…
For many years a man watched his wife take a locked box down from the cupboard. She would unlock the box, take a pinch, sprinkle it over whatever she was cooking, re-lock the box & return it to it’s place.
One day, while his wife was away, his curiosity got the best of him. He went to the cupboard, took the box down & opened it. To his surprise it was empty! He turned it over & on the bottom was written “LOVE”.
Don’t keep your “LOVE” locked up in a cupboard. Keep it within easy reach & use it generously.
SO…
Though not in your recipe book, Into everything that you cook, Put a big pinch of “LOVE”.
****************
Ok, so yes it’s really simple but there’s something really simple, cool & very sweet about it.
that’s all for now, just wanted to share it. I think @MisterNoodle for letting me read into one of his posts & expound on it LOL…
I love that about Twitter. We (@ least I) can just jump into any conversation & inject ourselves. LOL.. maybe some think that’s rude but hello..it’s Twitter.
