about smorgas_of_borg
Instead of trying to say who and what I am in this profile, I will simply post some things that have crossed my mind in thought, or on stickers or in print or overheard that may indicate why my brain seems to operate unlike those of other folks.
(this profile subject to change as more stuff gets stuck in my head)
Neurological Flatulence
At an early age I knew that I could never be part of any organized religion. That is why I became an Episcopalian.
Coincidence is when God wishes to remain anonymous.
It has always struck me as ironic that Jesus was a carpenter and ended up nailed to a board.
If God had intended for us to be naked, we’d have been born that way.
If you want to make God laugh, just tell him your plans.
"Never put a period where God has put a comma" - Gracie Allen
The Holy Land is everywhere.
I’m convinced that God’s favorite color is green. Just look around you.
Psst…..the meek are getting ready.
Pay no mind to those who talk behind your back. That just means you are two steps ahead.
People who lack the strength to be themselves are always trying to tear down those who do.
Ascend until your wings catch fire.
It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.
I’d rather be a failure at something I love than to be a success at something I hate.
People too weak to follow their own dreams will always find a way to discourage yours.
I have chosen this path, not to fit a mold; Not to join a trend; Not to follow a crowd; But because it is right for me.
It is better to be an open sinner than to be a false saint.
The primary problem with America is stupidity. Maybe we should just take all the warning labels off and let the problem solve itself.
It takes money to drink liquor and ride on the train.
A cigarette, as defined by my mother: A fire on one end and a fool on the other.
Truth inscribed on a club, which is then used to beat people up randomly, teaches nobody anything. No matter how much I might like to test the theory.
Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. [Psalm 19:14]
... and what does the LORD require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God? (Micah 6:8)
To those who have never seen the flow and ebb of God's grace in their lives, it means nothing. To those who have seen it, even fleetingly, even only once - it is life itself. (Adeodatus)
It's more important to be kind than to be right
“Your world is not the obviously right and true one just because you say it is.” - Archbishop Rowan Williams
'I write for the unlearned about things in which I am unlearned myself'- C S Lewis, Reflections on the Psalms.
Where you saw only one set of footprints... well, I could see you were finding it tough, so I thought it might cheer you up if we hopped for a while.

I have the following ingredients: unfilled lady fingers, mascarpone cheese, cream cheese, sugar, heavy cream, espresso, unsweetened cocoa, and heath bars that I am supposed to crush up and sprinkle on top.
It is a birthday dessert and I want it to be special so I was trying to make sure that I wasn't going to miss something by omitting the booze.

I want to make a Tiramisu this weekend and most of the recipes that I've seen call for some sort of liquor.
I can't use the booze because of a food allergy and was wondering what purpose it serves in the recipe; I can use espresso and get the same basic flavor.
Thanks!

Thank you so very much for your prayer! It was needed, especially as we draw closer to the funeral.
