Blessed is the roast meat which is

Blessed is the spong" cake which is

Blessed is the extra half teaspoon
Of cream Of tartar added to the soda
in making any white cake: it will
make the whites of eggs SITTER.
Blessed is the Tablespoon of melted

Blessed are the flour sacks-but

the sack over night in kerosene, and
the coloring will be easily washed out
next day.
Blessed is the tepid water used for
