am I going to</div> <div> live there, being so small and helpless?" </div> <div> And God answered. "I chose an angel for you. She</div> <div> will be waiting for you and will take care of you." </div> <bR> <div> "But here in Heaven all I ever do is sing and</div> <div> smile and laugh. That's enough for me to be happy". </div> <bR> <div> "Your angel will sing for you</div> <div> and will smile of you every day. And you</div> <div> will feel your angel's love and be happy.'' </div> <bR> <div> "And how am I going to be able to</div> <div> understand when people talk to me if I</div> <div> don't know the language that men speak?" </div> <bR> <div> "Your angel will speak to you using</div> <div> the sweetest, most beautiful words you will</div> <div> ever hear; and with much patience and care,</div> <div> you angel will teach you how to speak." </div> <bR> <div> "And what am I going to do when I talk to you?" </div> <bR> <div> "Your angel will place your hands</div> <div> together and will teach you how to pray." </div> <bR> <div> I've heard that on Earth there</div> <div> are bad men. Who will protect me." </div> <bR> <div> "Your Angel will defend you,</div> <div> even if it means risking her life." </div> <bR> <div> "But I will be sad because</div> <div> I will not see You anymore." </div> <bR> <div> "Your angel will talk to you about Me,</div> <div> and will teach you the way for you to come back</div> <div> to Me, to Me, though I will always be beside you." </div> <bR> <div> At that moment there was much peace in Heaven.</div> <div> Voices from Earth could already be heard, and the</div> <div> child asked softly.

In a roasting pan, place onion slices, lemon slices and garlic. Lay brisket on top of vegetables.Mix together port, brown sugar, and herbs; stir until sugar dissolves, then pour evenly over brisket. Sprinkle brisket with pepper and cover roasting pan tightly with foil. Bake in a 300:F oven until brisket is very tender when pierced, about four hours. When brisket is tender, uncover pan and return it to the oven (raise temperature to 450:F to brown the meat slightly, about 20 minutes. Remove brisket from pan. Skim off fat from pan juices and put in sauce pan. Boil juices and vegetables, uncovered, stirring often. As mixture thickens, reduce heat to medium and stir constantly; cook until thick and shiny, and reduced to about 1-3/4 cups (20-30 minutes). Add salt to taste. To serve, slice across the grain. Spoon marmalade over brisket. Garnish with lemon "bows" and chopped parsley if desired.

Pour the boiling water over this but do not stir. Bake in a moderate oven, 350F, for 1 hour, until the cake that rises to the top tests done.****   There will be a layer of fudge sauce beneath. Can be served warm or cold, with or without cream.* I further reduce fat content by substituting 3 T. cocoa powder + 1 t. melted butter or margarine. ** I omit the nuts...to reduce fat and also because we prefer it without nuts, but if you're so inclined, walnuts work with this.*** When I cook this in the microwave, I use an 8" square glass or Corningware dish.**** If using the microwave, allow 8 to 9 minutes on high (750-watt oven, adjust for your own particular nuker), turning quarter way around halfway through the cooking time (or use lazy susan).   </div> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B> </B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="bed50500.gif" border=0 width="80" height="80" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="bf564640.gif" border=0 width="100" height="100" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <A HREF="id149.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Cantrell Family Holiday Pages"><U><IMG SRC="bff501c0.gif" border=0 width="80" height="28" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></U></A></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <A HREF="index.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Cantrell Family Website"><U><IMG SRC="c0078320.gif" border=0 width="120" height="50" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></U></A>   <A HREF="id27.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Native Americans "><U><IMG SRC="c0178320.gif" border=0 width="120" height="50" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></U></A></div> <bR> <bR> <div>  <script language=JavaScript>  </script>  </div> <bR> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="c026b620.gif" border=0 width="107" height="98" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <div> <B>This website designed and maintained by </B></div> <div> <B>John Cantrell of Cantrell and Son's Creative Services </B></div> <div> <B>North Royalton, OH</B></div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="b4c4a450.gif" border=0 width="74" height="69" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"> </div> <bR> <div> <B>Copyright © Cantrell and Son's Creative Services.
