[recipe] Festive Apple-Cheese Log

[Guest guest]

This is quite delicious and looks very nice on a holiday

appetizer buffet. I have also rolled it in chopped walnuts

when I didn't have toasted pecans and it works well.

All cravings are the mind seeking salvation or fulfillment

in external things and in the future as a substitute for the

joy of being.Ê So don't seek to become free of desire or to

" achieve " enlightenment.Ê Become present.Ê Be there as the

observer of the mind.

~ Eckhart Tolle
