"Love your enemies!
Do good to them.
Lend to them without expecting to be repaid.
Then your reward from heaven will be very great,
and you will truly be acting as
children of the Most High,
for He is kind to those who are unthankful and wicked.
You must be compassionate,
just as your Father is compassionate."
Luke 6:35-36, NLT
Oh, January! Where have you gone? We started out together with such good intentions: the house would be deep cleaned throughly before we met February.
Laundry Room? Check.
Hall Bathroom? Check.
Master Bath? Check.
And then my battle with old Procrastination became real again.
Hallway? Partial Check.
Kitchen? Partial Check.
The phone calls started coming. You say you need a Cake for a Funeral Dinner? Absolutely! You'd like two Pineapple Cream Cheese Danish? Delighted to help you out! And oh, yes! We must host Bible Study.
And here it is, the day before meeting February face to face and the deep cleaning has stalled.
But on the upside, you, dear reader, get to have the recipe for Marbled White Chocolate Raspberry Cake (the cake that went to the Funeral).
Pretty and Pink and just in time for February and Valentine's Day.

Aren't these plates pretty?
Aimee gave them to me for Christmas and I've been having such fun with them!
I like to swirl the frosting in a cursive 'C' shape with the tip of my knife to make a pretty design.
