    “Choose your battles carefully because they reflect your values. Is it just vanity or anger prompting your ambitions, or is it some genuine, heartfelt belief that you cannot ignore?”

    Also……

    “When we forgive, we free ourselves from the bitter ties that bind us to the one who hurt us.”

    Just some thoughts ….

    They told me you had been to her,
    And mentioned me to him;
    She gave me a good character,
    But said I could not swim.
     
    He sent them word I had not gone.
    (We know it to be true.)
    If she should push the matter on,
    What would become of you?
     
    “I gave her one, they gave him two,
    You gave us three or more;
    They all returned from him to you,
    Though they were mine before.”
     
    If I or she should chance to be
    Involved in this affair,
    He trusts to you to set them free,
    Exactly as we were.
     
    My notion was that you had been
    (Before she had this fit)
    An obstacle that came between
    Him and ourselves and it.
     
    Don’t let him know she liked them best,
    For this must ever be
    A secret, kept from all the rest,
    Between yourself and me.

    Welsh Rarebit

    serves 2

    1 tsp English mustard powder
    3 tbsp stout
    30g butter
    Worcestershire sauce, to taste
    175g lancashire cheese, grated
    2 egg yolks
    2 slices bread

    1. Mix the mustard powder with a little stout in the bottom of a small pan to make a paste, then stir in the rest of the stout and add the butter and about 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce – you can always add more later if you like. Heat gently until the butter has melted.

    2. Tip in the cheese and stir to melt, but do not let the mixture boil. Once smooth, taste for seasoning, then take off the heat and allow to cool until just slightly warm, being careful it doesn’t solidify.

    3. Pre-heat the grill to medium-high, and toast the bread on both sides. Beat the yolks into the warm cheese until smooth, and then spoon on to the toast and cook until bubbling and golden. Serve immediately. :lol:
