This is one recipe I would like to share with you (out of the kitchen) that you will save, cherish and hopefully prepare over and over again!

A quart of gratitude
A cup of good deeds
A heaping teaspoon of sheer kindness
A pinch of charity
A quart of sweet words, hugs and kisses
A dab of delight
A gallon of pure giving
A pint of empathy
A score of forgiveness
A lb. of intent listening
A handful of heartfelt gestures
A ½ cup of loosely packed compliments
A stick of joy
A smear of grace
A splash of laughter
A tad of touch
A tablespoon of dancing and singing
A course chop & discard ~ of anger

    Stir all the ingredients together each day, taste as you prepare and feel free to add more flavor until you have perfected your recipe. Share with loved ones and you will have all the ingredients blended well enough… (The straight A’s To A Good Life~this year and forever.) Let Rest. Preheat oven to 500 degrees. This can be refrigerated for 365 days! Now head back into your kitchen and you’ll see each meal you create will be enhanced and most delicious! Happy “Good” New Year! Do not be discouraged if at first it doesn’t rise, you can try this recipe again each day!  Now, do pour that glass of wine and eat outdoors. ~ xoxo Denise
