Good night, Em and Lexxie, save some cookies for me (and my dog, my cat, my bird will pass, and my horse says wants a carrot-cake)!

Put the flour, baking powder, baking soda, spices, and salt in the bowl of a food processor and process for 5 seconds.

Frost with cream cheese frosting after cake has cooled completely. Cream Cheese Frosting:

Recipe for
PEACE ON EARTH
The main ingredient is LOVE Use all you have, because there is always more where it came from. The other essential ingredient is CREATIVITY Make this by combining intelligence with
an open mind and faith in the underlying
goodness of the cosmos. Please not: Don't let any fear get into the
mixture, because that will prevent if from
rising. Season liberally with
PATIENCE and HUMOR. Stir everything together with a graceful,
flowing motion. Bake in the oven of time.
And there you have it! PEACE ON EARTH, Mmmm-mmm!! Makes enough to serve the whole world! --Lamb & Lion Studio, Tammworth, NH ------------------

My mind is on the new TLC reality show 'Long Island Medium' and the star Theresa Caputo and I dunno why but I cry throughout all her shows when it has her bringing msgs to the living. And I was dying to know her astro but she doesn't even have a wikipedia page. All I got from research is that she is now backed up for 2 yrs for readings and that her email is Longislandmedium@gmail.com to request. Bummer. I don't care if it's a reality show and prob scripted I turned into a complete pool of tears watching it. And no there is no crazy hormonal things going on (!) I watch the next episode thinking I won't and then boom when she starts on the details on some guy's dead friend or some girl's dad the tears are just automatic. So anyway last night I researched on the spirit world, the scientific research pointing to it, or lack thereof, where I got sidetracked thinking on the nature of reality and the difference between mind vs. brain (if there is one). I found this lady last night who was a believer in the spirit world, who sought to do hard research, and after 25 yrs became a skeptic. I saved her article in a bookmark but I haven't read it cos part of me doesn't want it to interfere with what I know to be true. http://www.susanblackmore.co.uk/Chapters/Kurtz.htm It may take months or yrs but I will eventually get around to it lol.IP: Logged |

Lonake, I forget the name of this British guy who had been doing a similar show on the British TV. He was wildly popular and yes his shows were so moving. I am not afraid of this kind of research and paranormal phenomena. It's a bit weird how much sense these phenomena make to me. I enjoy them very much and don't scare me at all (and I'm one who can't stand Halloween movies; I get scared ******** by most of them!).
I had two dead people (that I know) come to me in my dreams with messages and they both were extremely happy and there was no fear at all upon meeting them. My logical mind has abandoned all explanation but my Pluto in Virgo trining my Moon, Venus in Scorpio, Scorpio on MC, Sun in early Sag, Scorpio cusp, all make me feel good about the dead and afterlife. Thanks for the link.

I have a fear he might be a Cappie!
He's definitely an earth sign. If he's a Virgo, no good news for me as my Pluto and SN are in Virgo, I'm trying to outgrow them! LOL
