Ms. Brown could forgive Deacon Jamison his holier-than-thou attitude, his boring Bible Study, his messing up the church kitchen and leaving it for her, his arrogant and pedantic way of demonstrating his no-mess-finger-dough-rolling technique, his dalliances with the occasional college coed, and never complimenting her cooking or giving HER a second look.
Not sharing the recipe for his oat-paste, raisin, walnut, almond, cinnamon, white chocolate cookies? That meant WAR.
*The butterfly tat made an excellent part of the stained glass, the wings made good wax paper and handiwrap, and the camouflage headgear made a wonderful dough-encrusted lecturing finger during the depicted ‘cookie sermon.’
