Work is the miracle by which talent is brought to the surface and dreams become
reality.

The joy we feel has little to do with the circumstances of our lives and everything to do with the focus of our lives.
– Russell M. Nelson
None of us will become perfect in a day or a month or a year. We will not
accomplish it in a lifetime, but we can begin now, starting with our more
obvious weaknesses and gradually converting them to strengths. This quest may
be a long one; in fact, will be lifelong. It may be fraught with many mistakes,
with falling down and getting back up again. But we must not sell ourselves
short. We must make a little extra effort. Kneel before God in supplication. He
will comfort, sustain, and bless us.
– Gordon B. Hinckley
In this world there are many who are unable to read or write. For them there is
little light of ages past, and only diminished knowledge of the vast and
intriguing world of the present. The darkness that surrounds them, the bleak
shadow of illiteracy, condemns them to poverty, hunger, and ignorance. Do
whatever you can to help them, whether they be in your home, neighborhood, or
across the world. Bring light into their lives by helping them learn to read.
– Gordon B. Hinckley
Vice is a monster of so frightful mien
As to be hated needs but to be seen;
Yet seen too oft, familiar with her face,
We first endure, then pity, then embrace.
Alexander Pope
Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless.
Not to speak is to speak.
Not to act is to act.
– Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Of this I am quite sure, that if we open a quarrel between the past and the present, we shall find that we have lost the future. – Winston Churchhill
The major work of the world is not done by geniuses. It is done by ordinary
people who have learned to work in an extraordinary manner.
– Gordon B. Hinckley
“Remember that God is our only one trust. To Him, I commend you … My son, neglect not the duty of secret prayer.“

Cinnamon sugar coating
Preheat oven to 350.
Mix butter and sugar at medium speed until pasty. Add egg and vanilla, mix together at medium speed until creamy. Stir in baking soda, salt, cream of tartar, cinnamon, and flour. Roll dough balls in the cinnamon sugar coating. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls about 2” apart on ungreased baking sheet. Bake 12 minutes. Let cool slightly before removing from baking sheet. Yields approximately 24 cookies. Enjoy!
I live in high altitude so this recipe has been adjusted accordingly. If you try it and they don’t seem right, try reducing the flour a little or adding a little more butter (coconut oil works great too).
