Sobriety's Favorite Dish

Take equal parts of honesty, tolerance and unselfishness and a shake of serious thinking; let simmer in a sauce pan of conscience until it thickens to the consistency of a Group Ideal. Add several cups of unity of purpose and generous portions of modesty and humility; a cup of pure unadulterated tears of sorrow and direct amends. Skim frequently of all defects and shortcomings that may rise to the top. Season with spices of personal inventory, prayer and meditation and a dash of anonymity. Bake in a kettle of iron, resolve to have a new life. Serve in a crystal bowl with a sauce of spiritual awakening and garnish with spiritual experience.
