JUST FOR TODAY<br />
By Dear Abby<br />
This is one of the more popular requested columns<br />
from the famous advice columnist Dear Abby. Read<br />
on: “Today is the day we have an opportunity to<br />
discard destructive old habits for healthy new ones<br />
and with that in mind, I will share Dear Abby’s often-requested<br />
list of New Year’s Resolutions, which<br />
were adapted by my late mother, Pauline Phillips,<br />
from the original credo of Al-Anon:<br />
LIFE IS THE MOMENT WE’RE LIVING RIGHT NOW.<br />
JUST FOR TODAY<br />
I will live through this day only. I will not brood about yesterday<br />
or obsess about tomorrow. I will not set far-reaching<br />
goals or try to overcome all of my problems at once.<br />
I know that I can do something for 24 hours that would<br />
overwhelm me if I had to keep it up for a lifetime.<br />
JUST FOR TODAY<br />
I will be happy. I will not dwell on thoughts that<br />
depress me. If my mind fills with clouds, I will<br />
chase them away and fill it with sunshine.<br />
JUST FOR TODAY<br />
I will refrain from improving anybody<br />
but myself.<br />
JUST FOR TODAY<br />
I will accept what is. I will face reality. I will correct those<br />
things that I can correct and accept those I cannot.<br />
JUST FOR TODAY<br />
I will improve my mind. I will read something<br />
that requires effort, thought and concentration.<br />
I will not be a mental loafer.<br />
JUST FOR TODAY<br />
I will make a conscious effort to be agreeable. I<br />
will be kind and courteous to those who cross<br />
my path and I’ll not speak ill of others. I will<br />
improve my appearance, speak softly and not<br />
interrupt when someone else is talking.<br />
JUST FOR TODAY<br />
I will gather the courage to do what is right and<br />
take responsibility for my own actions.<br />
JUST FOR TODAY<br />
I will do something positive to improve my<br />
health. If I’m a smoker, I’ll quit. If I am overweight,<br />
I will eat healthfully - if only just for today.<br />
And not only that, I will get off the couch<br />
and take a brisk walk, even if it’s only around<br />
the block.

Glazed Apple<br />
Cream Pie<br />
INGREDIENTS:<br />
1/2 cup white sugar<br />
1/2 cup milk<br />
1/2 cup heavy cream<br />
1/4 cup butter<br />
2 tablespoons cornstarch<br />
2 tablespoons milk<br />
1 teaspoon vanilla extract<br />
2 tart apples - peeled, cored and sliced<br />
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour<br />
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon<br />
1 (15 ounce) package pastry for double-crust pie<br />
1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar<br />
1 tablespoon milk<br />
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract<br />
1 tablespoon butter, softened<br />
DIRECTIONS:<br />
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 cup cream and 1/4 cup butter. Heat until butter is<br />
melted, stirring occasionally. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, 2 tablespoons milk and vanilla; stir into saucepan. Cook<br />
until thickened, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, and set aside to cool slightly.<br />
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). In a medium bowl, combine the apples, flour and cinnamon. Mix well. Line a 9<br />
inch pie pan with pie dough. Pour thickened filling mixture into pastry-lined pie pan. Arrange apple mixture evenly over filling.<br />
Top with second crust, seal and flute the edges. Cut slits in top crust. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until crust is golden brown and<br />
apples are tender. Cool for at least 30 minutes.<br />
In small bowl, combine confectioners’ sugar, 1 tablespoon milk, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla and 1 tablespoon softened butter. Blend until<br />
smooth; pour evenly over warm pie. Refrigerate for at least 1 1/2 hours before serving (longer is better). Source: allrecipes.com<br />

LIGHT JARS<br />
Do you get that let down feeling in <strong>January</strong> once all<br />
the decorations come down? My favorite part of the<br />
holiday season is the lights and my husband teases<br />
that YEAR ROUND I would have the inside of our<br />
house looking like the Griswald’s outdoors if he let<br />
me. (He is probably right, lol.)<br />
So my compromise is that I get Mason jars, mayo or<br />
pickle jars or even some vases and I use the battery<br />
operated string lights to make “normal” decorations.<br />
In one, along with the lights, I have the glass beads<br />
you can get at the dollar store in many colors; in<br />
another I have seashells we got in Galveston. I am<br />
sure you can find something that would match your<br />
own home and style to place in these.<br />
So if you are like me and just need that pick-me-up<br />
of some bright twinkling lights once the decorations<br />
are all down, make one or more of these and have<br />
them year round! - By Michelle Gray, KPC Editor<br />
