Sitting in Erin Loechner's session at the Influence Conference, as she spoke on the topic "Lean Back: Encouragement for the weary, the tired, the women in the trenches," I felt myself relax a bit.
I had walked into that room with makeup on, in my cute dry-clean-only schoolboy blazer and favorite oxford shoes. But heart-wise I still felt weary, and tired, and in the trenches of motherhood, like the day-old sweats you would often find me in at home. I was raw from mentally rehashing a decision to quit a job working with women I loved, chock full of encouragement, in favor of a job that is unseen with very few pats on the back. A while ago, I read in a parenting book that small children are like cavemen. As a parent you begin by teaching your little ones all the basics of civilization: how to talk and put on clothes, how to bathe and use the restroom, silverware, toothbrushes, pleases and thank yous. And some days it is tiring to be surrounded by cavemen. I crave the company of the five civilized, smart, lovely women I worked with for two and a half years.
But calling doesn't always mean comfortable. I felt peace about this decision in March to step back for a season and focus on our kids. I willingly put my love of work, production, and accomplishment down, in favor of taking a turn carrying the baton in the long marathon of parenthood. I know work will be waiting for me when they start school. I know this season is short and sweet and valuable. Some days it does feel long though. Some days I feel weary from reminders to say please, the teething, and potty training of my cute cavemen. Anything else would surely be more glamorous. But that doesn't mean I wasn't called to fill this particular role as Evie + Tommy's mama, at home, today.
So, sitting there listening to Erin talk about rest, self-care, and calling for help (especially to God, but also those nearest to you), was like a gust of refreshing sweet spring air to my soul. Here are the things I want to remember and rub into my brain:
- Lean back instead of in. Sometimes it is ok to say no to some things, in order to say yes to others. For this season, I know that volunteering in my kids' Sunday School class is not the right choice, even if it is the "good girl" thing to do. I really need some time with adults to take care of myself. It's ok to lean back in the church pew and not feel guilty about serving that Sunday.
- Calling is slow and steady. I first heard this at Q Women last year, and it has stuck with me. I do not have to have my calling completely figured out in my 20s. Calling doesn't always mean your life is comfortable, passionate, easy, or impressive. Sometimes it is hard, messy, unique and you might question it. Calling doesn't equate with a job title or a paystub. It can feel like a trench in a war zone – but trenches are the safest place you can be. Living out what God has called me to is the absolute best place I can be…even when I'm weary.
- Don't focus too much on the future. I've been reading The Screwtape Letters again, and one favorite passage (Ch. 6, if you want to read it) reminded me that today is what matters. God has given me daily bread for today's tribulations. Erin spoke about manna – how there was just enough for one day at a time. God always provided more the next day. Sometimes I catch myself worrying about five steps down the road or looking sideways and wondering how I would handle someone else's tribulation. But God is calling me to submit to my day, just today. Seeing God's provision is simple when I remember to go one day at a time.
- Self-care looks different for each of us. I love how Erin pointed out that Instagram is showing us everyone's best day – their favorite self-care method. It might be a good book, or a healthy meal, or a girls' night out, or a tidy home, or a long run. When I see it all strung together, suspecting I have to do ALL those things to take care of myself, self care becomes stressful. But it should be basic.
For me, self-care always starts with a shower. Add in this shower oil or this salt scrub, and for less than a dollar, I feel like I went to a fancy spa. (Read this for more ideas from Erin.) I'm also learning the art of an epsom salt bath, which has all kinds of benefits apparently. Pilates and yoga are my favorite kinds of exercise since they remind me of how strong and lithe I felt as a gymnast. And sleep.
ps. This post on Erin's blog, Design for Mankind, is a little excerpt from her conference session. Her blog remains one of my go-tos, and it was a treat to meet her. Her writing is insightful, poetic, honest yet gentle. Worth reading.
pps. If you're on a self-care kick, here are two other posts I found very helpful: Sometimes You Need to Mother Yourself + A Simple Guide to Self Care.

Were you enjoying Android Jelly Bean's App Ops feature and the extra privacy options it offered? Because as of KitKat's version 4.4.2, it's already gone. According to Google, it was never supposed to be in there in the first place, and it doesn't sound like there are any plans to include it anytime soon.
Beyond being a step back for Android, this could cause some problems for developers. A post from OpenSignal's blog details a sudden drop in their app's ratings caused by user hesitance over a new set of app permissions that OpenSignal was not aware of. It's not entirely clear, but OpenSignal suggests in their post that the removal of App Ops is a likely culprit.
So, one way or another, be aware of the change and consider the impact it may have on your apps!

We rate female sexual enhancers like Morgasm cream using several criteria including customer testimonials, safety, value, medical studies, customer service, money back guarantees, and - most importantly - which ones produce the best results.

Morgasm Review:
Morgasm cream has been around for a short time now but is not one of the better known female sexual enhancement products. Morgasm is manufactured by a company called Morecare Enterprises LLC, which only manufactures this single product as far as we have seen.
Morgasm cream is a hormone free clitoral cream designed to help improve a woman's sexual sensation and pleasure during sex. According to the website, Morgasm cream is equally effective as a sex enhancer for men. Morgasm contains Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) as well as Menthol - and should be used with caution when applying to sensitive skin areas.
Morgasm Cream Product Claims:
Morgasm Cream Results:
It's unclear what results - if any - the average woman will experience while using Morgasm Cream. The product literature refers to a "cool tingling sensation", but this is most likely due to the inclusion of Peppermint in the ingredients. The website states that "It starts out with a cooling sensation and ends in a warming tingling sensation."
Some readers report feeling increased sensation while using Morgasm gel, and this may lead some to have an increased desire to have sex more often. Customer feedback indicates that Morgasm gel is not nearly as effective as leading competitors like Provestra, Femestril, or Vigorelle cream - and in many cases Morgasm will not provide noticeable improvement in sexual sensation or arousal.
Product Guarantee: 30-days

Morgasm is a female clitoral arousal cream which is manufactured by a company called Morecare Enterprises LLC, which lists its address as a PO Box in Spring Lake, MI. From the Morgasm product website:
"Researchers at our Lab specialize in ONE THING ONLY: Creating sex creams that increase female sexual arousal and improve male sexual arousal with an all-natural easy-to-use product utilizing the benefits of L-Arginine cream to enhance libido. MORGASM® Arousal Cream will change your sex life forever and although you may find this hard to believe, it's as easy as turning on a light switch! You may be telling yourself that DOUBLING or TRIPLING your pleasure in bed cannot be possible, let alone easy. But just think about how much better your sex life and relationship would be if you could dramatically increase sexual pleasure AND sexual desire for both you AND your partner. And you have absolutely NOTHING TO RISK, because we offer a 100% Money-Back Guarantee!
Discover for yourself how the Morgasm Proprietary Formula with L Arginine benefits libido for women and men. Experience the best L-Arginine supplement available which contains a little miracle amino acid protein (a male and female arousal enhancer) that can dramatically improve the sex lives of men and women everywhere. Morgasm cream contains a unique blend of added all-natural ingredients that increase the absorption of L Arginine – the key to fully stimulating orgasms. Morgasm produces IMMEDIATE results – in fact, 76% of women and 83% of men report having a BETTER orgasm on their first use. For men, Morgasm works to escalate and also greatly amplifies l-arginine effects through prolonged orgasms. Not only is the penis able to increase in size and hardness, but stamina and desire is magnified, leading to improved sexual enhancement, producing stronger, firmer erections and longer-lasting orgasms! So, check out the top-rated L-Arginine cream for men."
The Morgasm product is somewhat confusing as it seems to be aimed at both women AND men - or apparently whoever wants to buy it. Morgasm is a topical cream which contains peppermint and is manually applied to the clitoris 5-20 minutes before intercourse. This is rather interesting as the website goes on to warn women to "be careful whenever you use Morgasm Cream on sensitive skin areas." We can't imagine too many more sensitive areas than the clitoris - yet that's exactly where this product is intended to be used!
Morgasm cream must be applied immediately prior to sex to see optimal results. Personally we find it hard to believe that a cream for female sexual arousal can also be effective as an erection enhancer in men! If you're looking for a product specifically to improve sexual sensation and arousal - then Morgasm is probably not your best choice. While possibly providing enhanced lubrication, Morgasm cream is unlikely to address the more complicated aspects of female sexuality such as low female sex drive, and orgasm or arousal problems.
Morgasm has a 30-day money back guarantee.
Apply by massaging Morgasm arousal cream into the clitoris 5-30 minutes prior to intercourse.
"Incredible! My husband got some "morgasm cream" and we tried it out last night. I had the best orgasm I've had in a long time - maybe ever. That stuff has a cooling effect and then it gets warm - what a great sensation. We've tried other creams before but they were not very strong. This stuff lasts a long time - I loved it!" - Brittney K
The ingredients in Morgasm Cream gel are Organic Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera), Isopropyl Palmitate (Palm Oil), Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Organic Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower Oil), Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond Oil), L'Arginine, Mentha Piperita (Peppermint Oil), Laevo Menthol (Menthol), Methyl Salicylate (Wintergreen Oil), Mentha Spicate (Spearmint Oil), Eucalyptus Globulus (Eucalyptus Essential Oil), Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree Oil), Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose Oil), Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot Kernel Oil), Organic Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba Oil), Panthenol (Vitamin B5), Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), Tocopheryl (Antioxidant), Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A), Organic Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea), Citric Acid (Vitamin C).
There are no reported side effects associated with using Morgasm Cream. Morgasm should not be used if you have any type of active vaginal infection, genital lesions or irritation. Morgasm Cream contains Mentha and should be used with caution when applying to sensitive skin areas. Women with yeast infections and other irritating conditions of the genitals should refrain from using Morgasm Cream until the condition is resolved. Morgasm Cream should not be used by pregnant or lactating women.
Current Morgasm Cream Free Bonuses:
We are not aware of any doctor or medical endorsements for Morgasm cream.
Free USA shipping via USPS Priority Mail.
Morgasm can be purchased online at the manufacturer product website at http://www.morgasmcream.com.
Overall, we feel that Morgasm arousal cream is at best a mediocre product to help women's sexual enjoyment, and it does has some definite drawbacks. Morgasm female cream is somewhat one-dimensional in that the cream is mainly designed to provide short term benefits of "increased tingling" during sex. However, Morgasm will not really work to help address the main female sexual problems - which is low female sex drive (also referred to as low female libido). In other words, Morgasm may produce a slight "tingling" sensation during sex due to the Menthol in the ingredients - but it won't do anything to actually increase your arousal or desire to have sex in the first place - the main complaint that most women have. Morgasm cream is applied by "massaging" the cream into the clitoris, with the aim of producing a "cool tingling" sensation. In actual fact, the tingling sensation is just a mild numbing as a result of the Peppermint in the formula.
Another drawback is we don't think any truly effective female enhancer can be taken seriously when it also claims to be just as effective for men. The Morgasm website repeatedly states that Morgasm helps with male erectile function, as well as improving sexual stamina, male libido, and strengthening male orgasms. We feel that women should stick to a female enhancer specifically designed with a woman's needs in mind - and several such products do exist. As you can see from the ingredients chart above - Morgasm is lacking several key ingredients found in the leading female enhancement products.
On the plus side, Morgasm cream is quite reasonably priced and comes at a cost that most women should be able to afford. You should consult your health care professional prior to using Morgasm cream if you have or suspect a medical condition, are taking prescription drugs - or are pregnant or lactating. Overall, Morgasm gel may be a product to consider for some - but if you're looking for dramatic results in a female sexual enhancer, then Morgasm Cream probably isn't for you. There are several superior products like Provestra, Femestril, and Vigorelle which have been around for many years and have been proven extremely effective. Research from our editors and customer feedback from readers indicate a user rating of #78 for Morgasm cream - not horrible - but still far, far behind the top-rated female sexual enhancement products. Find out more.
Millions of women are now successfully using female sexual enhancers like Morgasm cream to dramatically improve their sex lives and re-ignite the spark in their relationship. Safe and effective, herbal sexual enhancers for women are one of the most successful options as a treatment for low female libido - and should be considered among the top methods for improving your sexual enjoyment and satisfaction. Female sexual enhancement products can bring back the passion and pleasure in the bedroom that many women now find so elusive.
While not a top-rated female sexual enhancer, Morgasm may provide some positive results for many of the women who try it. All of our consumer recommended products have proven repeatedly that they work - through numerous clinical trials and overwhelming positive feedback from the women who've used them. We encourage you to learn more about the top rated sexual enhancement products for women - and start experiencing the thrill of revitalized sexual health and desire. Many options are now available that will help restore your sex life and make sex fun again!

Last month President Barack Obama signed the new G.I. Bill 2.0 that eliminated many inconsistencies and exclusions found in the previous Post 9/11 G.I. Bill, and enhanced the benefits for veterans and active duty personnel wanting to return to school.
There are plenty of stories ideas that can come from knowing what the new law entails:
- Disabled Veterans: Raising monthly vocational rehabilitation benefits by nearly $800 per month. This will help 21,000 disabled veterans be able to afford to live and go to school.
- Improved Tuition Benefits: Simplifying the confusing tuition cap system and increasing the benefit rate in 45 states. More than 58,000 students will now receive higher tuition benefits.
- Distance Learners: Granting over 25,000 full-time distance learners, a monthly living allowance, including disabled veterans, single parents who provide at-home childcare, and rural veterans.
- Vocational Training: Authorizing New GI Bill benefits for apprenticeship and on-the-job training. This will help more than 6,000 veterans participate in vocational training.
- Trade Schools: Approving benefits for students studying at trade schools such as a fire academy, truck driving school or a barber college. Approximately 6,000 students will now be able to attend a trade school next year.
- Full Time National Guard: Including full-time service in the National Guard as qualifying service toward New GI Bill eligibility. This will help over 85,000 previously excluded National Guardsmen.
- Active Duty: Granting more than 19,000 active duty servicemembers using their GI Bill benefits an annual book stipend of $1,000 per year.
- New Recruits: Saving new enlistees to the military $1,200 by not requiring them to sign-up for the old and inadequate GI Bill. This will help 180,000 new service members per year.
Not only will the New GI Bill 2.0 extend benefits to 400,000 additional veterans and families, it includes a provision that will protect student veterans from predatory for-profit schools.

Acute pain originates from a source that eventually heals. "You expect it's going to go away over time and it usually does." There are ways of managing acute pain, such as drugs.
Cancer pain can arise from both a malignancy and its treatment, such as surgery and radiation. It's particularly challenging to manage as "it can be acute and chronic all at once," says Morrison.
Chronic pain frequently begins as acute pain that hasn't been properly cared for. Its source may be difficult to identify, as seen in ailments such as arthritis and fibromyalgia.
"We are beginning to understand that if we get on top of it quickly, [we] can do a lot better than we used to. We're beginning to learn that there are a number of chronic pain conditions that we can make a difference in," she says.
Morrison teaches clients to become more aware of their pain. She alerts them to its many nuances.
"One of the first things I would do, regardless of what type of pain you have, is I would say to you, 'what is the worst that your pain gets?' I usually use the 0 to 10 scale, where 0 is no pain and 10 is the worst imaginable pain. I'd say, 'OK, how good does it ever get on your best days?' I'd [ask], 'how do you get it there?' So many [people] have no idea what the [factors] are. Nobody's worked with them to take a look at it, to teach them how to learn about their pain."
Morrison encourages her clients to be methodical in educating themselves about their pain. Be persistent, she advises. Take notes and keep a pain diary: When the pain is felt, what makes it better, what makes it worse, what foods are eaten, types of activities and activity level, weather, and stress level.
Alternative methods for chronic pain relief focus on calming the mind, body and spirit. Good nutrition and vitamin supplements nourish the body. Relaxation techniques such as meditation, deep breathing and aromatherapy relieve physical tension that can exacerbate pain.
Moderate, low-impact exercise such as walking, swimming and biking yields numerous benefits. Exercise strengthens muscles, increases flexibility, helps restore balance and co-ordination, invigorates the heart and lungs, aids in the maintenance of a healthy weight, improves sleep and promotes a sense of well-being, all of which can diminish pain.
As an adjunct to exercise, massage stimulates blood flow and relaxes muscles. The hands-on, touching aspect of massage is very soothing, says Morrison, particularly when one "connects" with the massage therapist.
Guided imagery taps into the healing power of the imagination. A relaxation technique that can improve one's quality of life, it evokes physiological changes that promote healing. Patients listen to a recorded message that instructs them to relax, close their eyes, breathe deeply and feel the air flowing in and out of their lungs. They are invited to imagine being in a favourite place, and to describe the sights, sounds and smells in order to engage their senses fully.
In studies done among women suffering from osteoarthritis, guided imagery has increased mobility. Cancer clinics in the U.S. use it to relieve pain and nausea. Although a scientific explanation for its efficacy eludes practitioners, the technique has much to recommend it. It's easy to use, inexpensive and has no adverse side effects. All that's required is the ability to visualize images in the mind's eye.
Used for centuries in China, gently swirling needles inserted into acupuncture points in the body have proven effective at relieving chronic pain. Acupuncture points can also be stimulated with deep massage.
To ease the anxiety and depression, which frequently accompany pain, spiritual counselling, psychotherapy, joining a support group, and journalling one's thoughts and feelings are recommended.
Cognitive reframing teaches people to monitor negative, self-defeating thoughts and images and to replace them with positive, more realistic ones. Morrison sees her role as empowering people to learn all that's required to become healthy.
"I want to figure out with them what's going on, what's working, what isn't working. I do a tremendous amount of teaching, not just about pain but about medications, what they are, how to take them, how not to take them."
She addresses the issue of pain and how it can mould one's identity, asking sufferers, "who are you in this world? How do you get on with your pain?" Pain may be a formidable adversary, but with the help of specialists, it can be targeted, tamed and transcended.

What's in the news about food choices
- Walmart keeps talking about produce – local, fresh
- A growing number of consumers want to know if food is gluten-free or non-GMO
- Traceability for meat and poultry is becoming more visible – food safety, humane, sustainable
- Allergens were the primary source of food safety reports in 2012
- Are saturated fats so terrible? It may be time to re-evaluate recommendations
Here are links and summaries for recent news and opinion about food choices.
Produce – retail and rooftop
KU expands rooftop garden May-20-13 Food Management
Kansas University Dining Services expects to get about twice as much fresh produce this year as before from its rooftop garden thanks to a major expansion of the available space.
Walmart to purchase produce directly from local growers Jun-3-13 HuffPost Food

Produce consumption varies within the USA; low Jun-4-13 PMA From Field to Fork
Overall in the United States, 37.7 percent of adults report consuming fruit less than one time a day and 22.6 percent eat vegetables less than one time a day.

Some 36 percent of adolescents report eating fruits less than once a day, and 37.7 percent say they eat vegetables less than once a day.
Walmart offering money-back guarantees on fresh produce Jun-2013 Facts, Figures & The Future
Phil Lempert: The nation's largest grocer, Walmart, achieves so much with one bold move to offer money-back guarantees on fresh produce, that it earns our kudos. It shreds consumers' single biggest reason for not buying more fruits and vegetables. No longer do people have to fear their produce might spoil before they get to eat all of it.
Unnatural foods – obesogens, GMO
Is lettuce making Americans fat? May-21-13 New Hope 360 / Natural Vitality Living
Environmental chemicals known as obesogens are found in many places, including pesticides used on conventional produce. They program our bodies to store fat and develop disease and do so to such an extent that, in theory, a head of conventional romaine could actually cause more weight gain than a grass-fed burger.
Seeking food ingredients that aren't gene-altered May-26-13 New York Times
A growing number of consumers are demanding increased information about what is in their food, whether it is gluten or genetically engineered ingredients. Pressure is growing to label products made from genetically modified organisms, or "G.M.O."
Ben & Jerry's to cut all GMO ingredients from products Jun-4-13 Food Product Design
Ben & Jerry's recently set a goal to cut all GMO ingredients from its ice cream products by the end of 2013, while also supporting mandatory GMO labeling legislation.

Ben & Jerry's also wants all of its flavors Fairtrade certified and sourced.
Traceability – meat, chicken
Improving meat traceability in the U.S. May-20-13 Food Safety News
Food marketing has become more and more about the story of the product and how it got to the shelf at the grocery store or onto the plate at a restaurant. The ability to follow meat to its source is important not only from an integrity standpoint but from a safety standpoint. In the case of a foodborne illness outbreak, tracing contaminated meat back to its source quickly is key.
New site brings transparency to buying poultry May-23-13 Food + Tech Connect
Buying Poultry hopes to take the guess-work out of choosing the most humane and sustainable poultry products and plant-based alternatives. Online buying guide featuring animal, farm worker and environmental ratings for every poultry producer in the country.

Tropical Smoothie Café debuts chicken-free strips May-24-13 FastCasual
The Chicken-Free Strips are a blend of soy and pea protein and mirror the taste of real chicken. "Beyond Meat's research shows that nearly 50 percent of the U.S. population is at least open to the idea of eating less or no meat in their diet, and this aligns well with our healthier customer base."
World Environment Day aims to curb food waste Jun-5-13 Food Product Design

British Columbia's privacy commissioner says she isn't backing off her investigation of a request by the B.C. NDP for party leadership candidates to provide social-media passwords even though a high-profile dispute on the issue has been resolved.
Elizabeth Denham said Tuesday that she is pleased that MLA Nicholas Simons has reached a compromise with the party, which is poring over candidate sites to look for embarrassing information.
However, she said she worries about similar requests, which may be at odds with provincial privacy legislation.
"Yes, they have resolved this with one individual, but what's going to happen next time, and with other political parties and like or similar organizations? I wouldn't want this to be setting a precedent," she said from Washington, D.C., where she is attending a conference of the International Association of Privacy Professionals.
"This is a teachable moment for other organizations."
She said this was a good opportunity to provide guidance to organizations that are subject to the Personal Information Protection Act, or B.C.'s privacy act applying to commercial, private-sector organizations and non-profit organizations, including political parties.
Ms. Denham has said there is nothing new in companies assessing social-media sites for information on job applicants, but that the demand for social-media passwords was unusual.
Word of the case has spread way beyond B.C. with delegates at the meeting coming up to ask her about the case, Ms. Denham said.
BC New Democrats asked leadership candidates to provide their social-media passwords so the party could assess the relevant sites for material that might be politically embarrassing.
The party argued the request and process, part of an approval process for candidates, was necessary before investing resources in someone who might become the NDP candidate for the premier's office.
Ms. Denham said she is concerned about other individuals who may not have the clout Mr. Simons did to exercise their rights, but noted that he did not request the investigation. She launched it herself.

April 27, 2012: Senate Passes VAWA, Including Key Housing Protections
S. 1925 would substantially increase the number of survivors of domestic and sexual violence who are protected against evictions and denials of housing due to the violence committed against them. The National Housing Law Project provided technical assistance to legislative staff and several national advocacy organizations to ensure that survivors of violence receive notice of their housing rights and are able to relocate within subsidized housing for their safety. The House is expected to take up its own version of the legislation in May.

After successfully completing my 14 day detox (all vegan, no alcohol, no caffeine, no pasta, no bread, no fun), I have to admit I was feeling a little bit tired of salad. But not wanting to just dive back in to eating whatever the hell I wanted, I decided to persevere and hunt around for recipes that packed a little more punch than the standard, garden variety salad. That's when I came across this cheeky Mediterranean number over at cookieandkate, and I think I have to say, yep, I'm calling it — this might just be one of the best salads of all time.
Think fresh flavours of mint and basil, combined with the earthy goodness of roasted eggplant and zucchini, plus a few bonus treats (read: cheese!) A total winner in my book, plus it keeps really well in the fridge for 3-4 days — perfect for lazy lunches. That said, it's best served at room temperature so be sure to grab it out of the fridge before you're ready to eat.
Here's what you'll need:
1 cup cooked quinoa (or 1/3 cup uncooked)
1 small eggplant, diced
2 small zucchini, diced
3-4 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Juice of 1 medium lemon
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
1/4 cup kalamata olives, pitted and roughly chopped
2-3 tbsp fresh basil leaves, chopped
2-3 tbsp fresh mint leaves, chopped
2 tbsp pine nuts, toasted
25g crumbled feta
Pre-heat your oven to 200°C and line two large, rimmed baking trays with baking paper.
Divide the diced eggplant and zucchini between the two trays, drizzle with 1-2 tablespoon olive oil and toss — you want just enough to lightly coat the vegetables, not drown them. Season with salt and pepper, then roast for about 30 minutes, until the veggies are softened and beginning to brown. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
Toast the pine nuts in a small frypan over low-medium heat, stirring frequently, until they are lightly golden — about 5 to 10 minutes. Be sure to keep an eye on them so they don't burn, then transfer to a bowl to cool.
In a large serving bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and garlic. Slowly pour in the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil while whisking constantly to emulsify the dressing. Add the tomatoes, basil, mint, olives, roasted vegetables and pine nuts, gently stir to combine, then stir through the cooked quinoa and crumbled feta. Season generously with salt and pepper, and get ready for a trip to flavour town.
Serve at room temperature.
Makes 4-6 servings.

First Pounder Toy
Almost every child receives a joyful pounder toy when young - so make it special with the First Pounder from Hape Toys! It is so much fun to use the hammer and pound the pegs through their holes, only to then flip the stand over and pound them right back out. Hape Toys has updated and produced its own version of the pounder toy that is brightly colored and just as fun. The 6 pegs are easy to pound through the holes with the included hammer, and kids are still able to flip over the bench and pound them right back out. This toy is great for improving hand/eye coordination and dexterity while allowing your child to learn about cause and effect. Made of maple wood and non-toxic paint, this toy is great for the growing toddler!
