The Present
Imagine there was a bank that credited your very own account each morning with a
large sum of money. But, it carried over no balance from day to day. Every
evening it deleted whatever part of the balance you failed to use during the
day. What would you do? Draw out all of it, of course!
Each of us has such a bank. Its name is - Time. Every morning, it credits you
with 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever of this you
have failed to invest to good purpose. It carries over no balance. It allows no
overdraft.
Each day it makes a new deposit for you. Each night it burns the remains of the
day. If you fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours. There is no going
back. There is no drawing against the "tomorrow". You must live in the present
on today's deposits. Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in health,
happiness, and success!
The clock is running. Make the most of today. And remember that time waits for
no one. Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. But today is a gift. That's
why it's called The Present!

"Don't wait until everything is just right. It will
never be perfect. There will always be challenges,
obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get

stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and
more self-confident and more and more successful."

Blackcurrant
Sorbet
This luscious
sorbet is easily made by hand, but it is important to alternately freeze and
blend or process the mixture five or six times to get the best result. If you
make lots of ice cream and sorbets, it is worth investing in an electric ice
cream maker.
Ingredients:
-
Serves 6
-
150g or 1/2
cup easter sugar
-
225g or 2 cups
fresh or frozen blackcurrants
-
5ml or 1 tsp
lemon juice
-
30ml or 2 tbsp
creme de cassis or other blackcurrant liqueur (optional)
-
2 eggs whites
(optional)
Directions:
-
Pour 300ml
water into a saucepan and add the sugar. Place over a low heat until the
sugar has dissolved. Bring to the boil and boil rapidly for 10 minutes, then
set the syrup aside to cool.
-
Meanwhile,
cook the blackcurrants in a saucepan with 30ml/2 tbsp water over a low heat
for 5-7 minutes until tender.
-
Press the
cooked blackcurrants and their juice through a sieve placed over a jug. Stir
the resulting blackcurrant puree into the syrup with the lemon juice and the
blackcurrant liqueur, if using. Allow to cool completely, then chill for 1
hour.
-
Pour the
chilled blackcurrant syrup into a freezeproof bowl; freeze until slushy,
removing and whisking occasionally until it reaches this point. Whisk the
egg whites, if using, in a grease-free bowl until they form soft peaks, then
gently fold into the semi frozen blackcurrant mixture.
-
Freeze the
mixture again until firm, then spoon into a food processor or blender and
process. Alternately freeze and process or blend until completely smooth.
Serve the sorbet straight from the freezer.
