Thursday, March 27, 2014: The Aquarius Moon is void for almost the entire day (9:13 am - 8:10 pm EDT). Which means another entire day (see Tuesday) of going with the flow, taking on routine tasks and not freaking out over minor crises that will, in the end, be much ado about nothing.
You're more receptive to opportunities and possibilities, but delicacy and discretion are required. Just keep in mind that thoughtful small steps are more useful than giant leaps of faith when exploring new terrain.
So... As you move from this to that, on a don't start anything new day, take a new look at your current situation. Contemplate on the importance of teamwork and of being a part of something bigger than yourself. Meditate on how your past behavior contributed to the relationship situations you found yourself in. But also bear in mind that you didn't do anything wrong. You're just in a different place now and a different place often calls for a different approach.
Be willing to liberate your thinking, change you modus operandi and adjust how you connect and relate to others going forward. Keep in mind that everyone on a team brings with them unique expertise, knowledge, and experience... and each member of the team is an important part of the whole.
Still, there really is an "I" in team. As much as your work is integral to the success of your team, the success of your team is integral to your success.
Today's Quote
Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control over what you don't. ~ Steve Maraboli, Life, the Truth, and Being Free

If the pair answers correctly, they win whatever the prize the Dabarkads is holding and if they have the fastest time, will head to the Jackpot round. Also, if the contestants answer the Pinoy Henyo Word of the Day, they will receive an additional 5,000 pesos and gift packs from sponsors. In the Jackpot round, each pair must finish in two minutes. In the Jackpot round, the winning pair will play again following the same concepts except this time, both of them would have to guess, taking turns. Also, they are only given one category and answer three words correctly in under 3 minutes. If they answer one correctly, 10,000 pesos, two, 15,000 pesos and three is the Jackpot prize, 50,000 pesos. The top fastest time pairs will reunite on a special day to compete for the Semi-Finals. The winning teams from the Semis will then compete in the Finals for the Pinoy Henyo trophy and the grand prize of the current game.

Having asked Moon Bakery to make me something that reminded me of my school days and what my friends & I used to do, I never thought that Moon Bakery would come up with Packman. It took me back and I love the design. They also tasted as good as they look. Chocolate cupcakes with marizpan. yummmmy . Delivery service was also excellent.

I ordered the tuna and black olives + sundried tomatoe/feta cheese savoury muffins for a party which were really lovely. Perfect bite-size mini-muffins which I served as starters. I also ordered the chocolate mousse in the orange and plain dark chocolate flavours. I personally preferred the orange flavour, it was simply delicious, smooth and could instantly smell the orange. The chocolate mousses were also delivered in an iced- cool box which I was very pleased about. All in all, I was very satisfied with my orders and the delivery and will be ordering from Moon Bakery again.

"If John Hughes made a horror comedy for today's generation it would be All Cheerleaders Die!"
The new film from directors Lucky Mckee and Chris Sivertson is an entertaining little romp that will remind you of films made popular by the youth in the 80's and 90's. Clearly set up more for this MTV-less generation fixated with glamour and vanity All Cheerleaders Die is a nice compliment to the ever rising bro culture that exist today. All Cheerleaders Die is a hilarious movie that should do well once viewed by mainstream audiences.
The story follows Maddy (Caitlin Stasey) who feels like she must get the ultimate revenge against the cocky and insensitive star of the football team Terry (Tom Williamson). She knows the only way to do so is by stepping out of her comfort zone and teaming up with the Cheerleaders. Well after a night of partying goes foul she and the other cheerleaders have an horrible accident and are left for dead. Due to unforeseen supernatural happenings the girls are resurrected with a little more angst and hunger than before.
All Cheerleaders Die will be a very polarizing film for most critics primarily due to the directors involved. Both Mckee and Sivertson are both known to create films of a "smarter and edgier" quality but aren't we all allowed to have fun sometimes? The quality of All Cheerleaders Die is fine in regards to the look and presentation of the film but there is no true serious nature or groundbreaking concept behind the film. The Craft, Mean Girls, Urban Legend, and more all exemplify similar traits to what we see here. It's fitting since a director like Sivertson has worked with talent involving one of those films. The original idea and video for Cheerleaders were created by the two directors back in 2001 so the project was something that was already developed while the two were making the films they are most famous for.
The cast does a decent display of capturing the feel behind the iPhone generation that this film is directed towards. We will be surprised to see how well the film does but in all honesty this has been marketed all wrong. Not that we are glued to channels like MTV all day but there was little promotion on an outlet that this film was made perfect for. If this only hits select theaters it will be travesty and missed opportunity. Similar to the remake of The Evil Dead the younger generation would eat this movie alive (no pun intended). It makes sense that this is a film surrounding the football team as this is clearly the Varsity Blues of the horror culture which could be a good or bad thing.
All Cheerleaders Die is nod to the stereotypical teenage films we come to love or hate. From the token black guy to the goth girl you can name almost any comedy, horror, or romance about teens as find similar qualities to Cheerleaders. What that says to us is no matter how well or bad the film does in the box office, there is an audience for this movie and they are looking at Instagram while we speak. It is an enjoyable affair if you take the film for what it is. Hot chicks, bro studs and some effective kills and gore allow All Cheerleaders Die to flourish. It is true that All Cheerleaders Die has set the bar high in regards to horror comedies this year as it is full of laughs and intrigue that will warrant more than one watch.
All Cheerleaders Die is now available on demand and most VOD outlets. It is directed by Lucky McKee and Chris Sivertson. It stars Caitlin Stasey, Sianoa Smit-McPhee, Brooke Butler, Amanda Grace Cooper, Reanin Johannink, and Tom Williamson. All Cheerleaders Die is being distributed courtesy of RLJ/Image Entertainment and will be in theaters June 13, 2014.

Click here for a PDF of the 2012 Louisville Slugger Preseason All-American Teams
Arizona State baseball players Deven Marrero and Brady Rodgers have been selected Louisville Slugger Preseason All-Americans by Collegiate Baseball newspaper.
Marrero, a junior infielder, was named to the first team after earning Pac-10 Defensive Player of the Year honors and First Team All-Pac-10 last season. He hit .315 (69-219) with two homers and 20 RBI and also was named ABCA Second Team All-West Region, Second Team Academic All-Pac-10 and Second Team Academic All-District VIII.
Rodgers, a junior right-handed pitcher, earned a spot on the second team after going 9-4 last season with a 2.75 ERA. He struck out 87 batters while walking only nine, and allowed just one home run all season, tied for fewest in the Pac-10. He was a 2011 All-Conference honorable mention.
The Sun Devils are one of two Pac-12 schools with two players on the All-American teams.

This morning at Preston Miller Park more than 800 people walked in support of those with Alzheimer's.
The chairperson said it's the largest fundraiser event of the year for Alzheimer's research, family caregiver education and the 24-hour help line that helps those involved with the disease.
The goal was to raise $68,000 and they passed it with more than $70,000.
"I'm the owner of Home Instead Senior Care and we take care of people every day that have Alzheimer's and we've seen firsthand the devastating effects this disease can have on, not only the person with Alzheimer's, but with their families. So that's why me and my company get involved with this every year," said Brad Cannon, the chairperson for the event.
Cannon encourages those who have never participated in the walk to do it next year.
WKU Cheerleaders, Boy Scouts and local singers were also there to show their support.

There remains a distinct possibility Miami could find themselves 10-6 and on the outside looking in. Based on all the tiebreakers, Jacksonville could still edge out Miami, or so could Baltimore....and the Jets could keep it interesting by forcing the tiebreaker.
Here's who Jax has left: Indy, at New England, and Cleveland
Baltimore: vs Chicago, at Pitt, at Oakland
And of course Miami has: at Tennessee, Houston, and Pittsburgh
I'm going to go out on a limb and say Baltimore probably will win all 3. I'm going to root for Jacksonville to beat Indy (sentimental reasons) and also New England, since that could Miami the division crown and eliminate the need for the tiebreakers (or at least I think it would?)

Schulz, N; Dave, M H; Stehberger, P A; Chau, T; Wagner, C A (2007). Differential localization of vacuolar H+-ATPases containing a1, a2, a3, or a4 (ATP6V0A1-4) subunit isoforms along the nephron. Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 20(1-4):109-120.

Vacuolar H(+)-ATPase are multi-subunit containing pumps important for several processes along the nephron such as receptor mediated endocytosis, acidification of intracellular organelles, bicarbonate reabsorption and secretion, and H(+)- extrusion. Mutations in the human a4 (ATP6V0A4) subunit cause distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA). There are 4 known isoforms of the 'a' subunit (a1-a4). Here we investigated the expression and localization of all four isoforms in mouse kidney. Real-time PCR detected mRNAs encoding all four 'a' isoforms in mouse kidney with a relative abundance in the following order: a4>a2=a1>a3. Immunolocalization demonstrated expression of all 'a' subunits in the proximal tubule and in the intercalated cells of the collecting system. In intercalated cells a1 and a4 isoforms appeared on both the apical and basolateral side and were expressed in all subtypes of intercalated cells. In contrast, a2, and a3 were only found in the apical membrane. a1 and a4 were colocalized in the same cells with AE1 or pendrin, whereas a2 was only found in AE1 positive cells but absent from pendrin expressing intercalated cells. These results suggest that vacuolar H(+)-ATPases containing different 'a' isoforms may serve specific and distinct functions and may help explaining why loss of the a4 isoform causes only dRTA without an apparent defect in the proximal tubule.

Looking for Leaders in all the Wrong Places
By jimgris-Oracle on Apr 01, 2009
Yes, I do think the rearview mirror distorts our view, but I also think the current crop of leads out there is poor at best. And I disagree with the presupposition in the article (and in most of these articles) that leadership is only for leaders. That`s what keeps us always looking up to the special people for answers. Leadership is not just for leaders. Leadership is for all of us. And just because our so-called leaders turned out to be obviously so small, that doesn`t let all of us off the hook for our own laziness to take responsibility for our own lives. I mean after all, we believed those guys, right? That part is our problem, not theirs. Don`t look up for leadership. Look in the mirror. Weave that notion into the article as you read it. I think it works.

Former Liberal boys basketball coach Dick Scofield (62) passed away Sunday due to a massive heart attack. Scofield retired from coaching last month after 40 years. Scofield has been coaching at Liberty Christian in Denton County, Texas. He also coached at Moore, Oklahoma and Sulphur Springs, Texas after his stint at Liberal. Scofield was the head coach three years at Liberal from 1975-77 leading two teams to state. The 1976 team went 18-6 and the '77 team was 17-5. He assisted Gary Abercrombie before getting the head coaching job when Abercrombie left. He also assisted LHS football coach Noel Thomason.

First Bank to buy two Four Oaks branches
Published: Tuesday, October 2, 2012 at 12:02 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, October 2, 2012 at 12:02 p.m.
TROY | First Bancorp, the parent company of First Bank, and Four Oaks Fincorp, the parent company of Four Oaks Bank & Trust Company in Four Oaks, announced that First Bank has entered into a definitive agreement to purchase the Southern Pines and Rockingham branches of Four Oaks Bank & Trust Co.
The terms of the agreement provide for First Bank to acquire all of the deposits of each branch (approximately $64 million in total) and selected performing loans (approximately $22 million). First Bank has branches in each of these markets.
The agreement calls for First Bank to purchase the Rockingham branch building while the Southern Pines branch facility will not be sold in this transaction and is expected to be closed by Four Oaks Bank upon completion of the transaction. The purchased loans and assumed deposits at the Southern Pines branch will be initially assigned to First Bank's office located nearby at Pinecrest Plaza.
The transaction is subject to regulatory approval and is expected to be completed during the first quarter of 2013.
Jerry Ocheltree, president of First Bank, addressed the customers of these branches, "We look forward to continuing Four Oaks Bank's excellent tradition of customer service. We consider it a privilege to serve you. We'll be in touch soon regarding the details and timing of the transfer of your account to First Bank. Thank you for the opportunity to serve your banking needs."

I have one interior door that is solid wood (84"x36"x1-3/4") in a metal stud wall with single layer of gypsum board on each side. When I close the door, and the door slab hits the door stop it makes a hollow sounding bumping noise. The other doors in our apartment which was renovated three years ago, do not make this noise. When closing it, it sounds as though the door is bouncing off the door stop a few times. To me it makes me wonder how well the assembly was framed, but I am hoping for suggestions on why the noise occurs, and what solutions there are to remedy it.
It's a bit hard to say what is causing the noise without an onsite inspection. Why not just try to muffle it (unless you are concerned about a structural problem).
Consider small bumpers, either vinyl, cork or felt, something like these
These are all self-stick and any of them could be put on the top and/or bottom edge of the strike side of the door frame. The can be cut to fit and may eliminate or at least reduce the banging.
Is the door frame metal or wood?
A pet peeve of mine is metal door frames that are supposed to be poured full of masonry (mortar, plaster/gypsum) post-install, and are not. The "hollow sound" leads me to ask.
It's a pet peeve because it turns out they are really easy to pry open without leaving marks, as the thieves who hit us when we lived behind one did. The masonry fill stiffens them up.
Otherwise, felt weatherstripping does wonders for muffling noisy doors.

Companies which offer air transport services.
An Airline is a company that provides transportation services by air of both cargo and passengers. Airlines trace their origins to mid XIX century when Rufus Porter and Fraderick Marriott attempted to provide commercial service between New York and California using an airship and while project was unsuccessful the idea was born.
The first commercial airline was founded in Germany back in 1909, which was using airships. The first airline using heavier then air crafts started in 1913 in Florida.
The Oldest Airline still in operation is KLM founded in 1919.

A chance meeting with fellow artists led to this photo of their doves. Pairing that photo with one of a peacock feather fan seemed natural. He seems to be trying to convince her to accept him as he is - that he will never be so colorful.

It only takes about half an hour or so to get out to the Peralta Trailhead from central Mesa, but just after you get off the freeway, you'll hit a dirt road and suddenly you're in the middle of beautiful Nowhere.
Peralta Trail is a moderate-to-strenuous 12.4 mile round trip. The terrain and scenery change throughout the hike, from easier to more difficult, as you move through the trees, over rocks, around cacti, and past a creek.
Once you make it just over 6 miles in, you have the choice of turning back the way you came or scooting over to the Dutchman Trail to create a full loop back to where you started. I recommend coming back later to make the loop, as the view coming back down the trail, overlooking the Peralta Canyon, is gorgeous and just demands attention. Get the view from another angle on your next trip. You'll be back.

Multiple faith communities are nothing new, but how about faiths or practices that don't exactly line up with each other, and that may cause a good amount of theological debate among the thousands of practicing individuals? What happens when a faith such as Christianity, finds itself living openly among faiths such as Wicca or other faiths containing magickal overtones? Is it possible for there to be a coexisting peace and an understanding? Or, will division and discord ultimately hit the community? Will the attitude seen in the witch hunts and burning times of years before still be present today, or will the spirit of love unite them.
Terre Haute Indiana has many denominations of many different beliefs. In these modern times however, faiths that were once scorned by the christian church, are now beginning to practice out in the open, and are seen working side by side with many church members . Has the face of Christianity changed? Has the love of so many magickal believing people, showed the church that they may have just been wrong in some of their actions in the centuries before? Do these church members realize who they are working with? If they did, would it change their attitude of harmony? If those outside the church can find love and harmony and be willing to work side by side with church members, can the church deny such unity without sacrificing it's character?
I'm going to be investigating this idea over the next few months. I will be interviewing several people of many faiths and practices to see their opinions and their stance on the topic. With each interview I hope to bring a new light and understanding to many. To bring about a new prospective and understanding towards peace among religions and practices. It will be a chance for the silent to be heard and for walls of division and separation to come down.
I urge you, to make your voice heard. Sign up for an online, over the phone, or personal interview with myself.

I learned to walk there, so it is a huge place in my life."--Brian Esparza, Guillain-Barre syndrome patient Read More RIO put him on the right path "Without them pushing me and adapting their practice to meet my needs, I would not be as far as I am today, no way."--Dale Neely, spinal cord patient READ MORE Skills for the rest of his life "While I was there I had a whole lot of supporters and staff who were behind me to give me a base of skills for the rest of my life. They are great people, too –– they are my extended family." --Dave Pierson, spinal cord patient Read More Good people, there to help "I woke up knowing I was in a hospital and thinking the doctors, therapists and nurses were good people who were there to help me."--Elizabeth Hovde, brain injury patient Read More A complete approach Located at Legacy Good Samaritan Medical Center, Legacy Rehabilitation Institute of Oregon (RIO) is an inpatient rehabilitation facility offering the highest level of care available. We offer patients and their families a complete approach –– round-the-clock medical and rehabilitation services in a caring environment, as well as therapy, skills training and counseling –– all in one location. That approach offers an extra level of care that sets us apart from other programs. What is RIO? Under the direction of doctors who specialize in rehabilitation (known as physiatrists), we create a personalized plan to best meet our patients' needs that includes goals and a target date for discharge. Each week, the team meets to review and revise the plan to get the best possible results. Family members and patients are an important part of the team. Legacy Rehabilitation Institute of Oregon was the first in the state to coordinate job training, counseling, and physical and occupational therapies in the same location. This coordinated approach remains the foundation for the positive results our patients enjoy. Common diagnoses Our team at RIO can help patients through a range of conditions, including: Stroke Spinal Cord Injury Brain injury Multiple sclerosis Multiple trauma Amputation Burn Special technology RIO is the first in the Pacific Northwest to offer the ZeroG® Gait and Balance Training System, a robotic body-weight support system. The system prevents falls and uses dynamic body weight support to allow patients to practice walking, perform balance exercises, and move from sitting to standing. Patients using the system may start exercising and walking faster and may have a shorter length of stay. Why choose RIO? Patients and families may have many options for rehabilitation care. The levels of care and expertise of the staff varies within these programs. Understanding these differences can help you make the right choice. As an inpatient rehabilitation facility, RIO offers the highest level of care available.

» Huskies Sign Four In Early Signing Period
SEATTLE - Just this past month, an outstanding group of senior GymDawgs were handed their diplomas to officially become University of Washington graduates. Head Coach Joanne Bowers and staff have been hard at work assembling the next class, and today they announced the addition of two newcomers set to make their own mark on the Husky program.
The newest members of the Husky family are Faith Morrison of Leesburg, Va., and Janae Janik from Simi Valley, Calif. They bring the total incoming class for 2013-14 to six student-athletes, as Washington previously announced the signings this past fall of Stephanie Stowe and Alexandra Yacalis, with Katilyn Duranczyk and Jessica Nesis walking on. Duranczyk, after a successful senior season that saw her place top-40 in the JO Nationals all-around, has now earned herself a scholarship, said Bowers. One fall signee, Megan DeLallo, will be pursuing other opportunities next year.
"Led by our five graduating seniors, our program has been moving in the right direction," said Bowers, "and we are now ready to make another jump. These new recruits, along with the other four incoming freshmen, have the talent and are very capable to help us further our program. They are fierce competitors and even better people. We are getting a fantastic group of young women to join our Husky family and couldn't be more pleased."
A level 10 gymnast from the Capital Gymnastics National Training Center, Morrison tied for 17th in the all-around at the 2013 Junior Olympic Nationals, highlighted by a 12th-place finish on floor. The Flint Hill High School grad placed seventh on vault and sixth on uneven bars at the Virginia State Championships in 2012 despite a sprained ankle in warm-ups. She previously was a Regionals qualifier back in 2010, her first year at level 10. In 2009 she was second in the all-around at the Level 9 state meet, and at Level 9 Regionals she was second on vault and first on floor.
"Faith will provide us with more difficulty and power on floor and vault but has the potential to compete all-around," Bowers said of Morrison. "She is an amazing young woman, from a great family--oldest of five children. We feel fortunate to have gotten her after seeing her at JO Nationals."
Janik has competed at level 10 since 2010 and since 2009 she has trained at AOGC (All Olympia Gymnastics Center) with two years before that at Cali Gymnastics in 2006 and 2008. Big achievements for Janik start most recently with a win on bars at 2013 Regionals and fifth-place all-around finish to qualify for nationals. She proceeded to finish 12th on bars at 2013 JO Nationals. In 2012, she won the California State title on floor and was second in the all-around. Janik also took second on bars in 2012. In her first year of Level 10 competition in 2010, she won bars at the JO National Invitational Tournament and won beam at both State and Regionals. She is also an AAU National Champion and five-time national qualifier on the diving board, competing at one meter, three meter, and platform.
"Janae is a very talented gymnast and diver, with absolutely beautiful lines and dance quality," says Bowers. "She is strong on all four events and should be able to help us right away. She was a former elite gymnast and has that elite `look' in her performance that will help her scores in college. We are excited she decided to do gymnastics in college instead of diving!"
Four of the six newcomers will be on campus starting July 8 to participate in the LEAP program. Those four will be Duranczyk, Nesis, Morrison, and Stowe.

Dow Named to MIT Technology Review's 2013 50 Disruptive Companies List Recognizing World's Most Innovative Companies
Dow Named to MIT Technology Review's 2013 50 Disruptive Companies List Recognizing World's Most Innovative Companies
Midland, Mich. - Feb. 20, 2013
The Dow Chemical Company (NYSE: DOW) has been identified in the field of Energy and Materials as one of 2013's 50 Disruptive Companies, MIT Technology Review's annual list of the world's most innovative technology companies. Dow was chosen for commercializing the DOW POWERHOUSE™ Solar Shingle, a first-of-its kind solar roofing product that combines the benefits of solar technology with the durability and performance of traditional roofing materials, all with an integrated design that complements the look of the home.
The honorees are nominated by MIT Technology Review's editors, who look for companies that have demonstrated original and valuable technology over the last year, are bringing that technology to market at significant scale, and are clearly influencing their competitors. Spanning energy and materials, internet and digital media, computing and communications, biomedicine, and transportation, the companies on the list represent the commercial disruptive innovations most likely to change our lives.
The POWERHOUSE Solar Shingles are the latest innovation in energy efficient solutions by Dow, and a breakthrough for homeowners who want to invest in reducing their cost of home ownership by offsetting their energy costs and living more sustainably, without sacrificing the aesthetics of their home. For homeowners needing a new roof, POWERHOUSE provides a replacement option that can pay for itself, generate revenue through energy offset, and add to the value of the home. Homebuyers purchasing and financing a new home with a POWERHOUSE roof can generate immediate savings, and be cash-flow positive from year one.
Jason Pontin, publisher and editor in chief of MIT Technology Review, states, "The pace at which technology changes is astounding. This issue celebrates organizations at the forefront, displaying "disruptive innovation'" that will prove to surpass the competition, transform an industry, and change our lives."
"The DOW POWERHOUSE Solar Shingle is indeed a disruptive innovation for homeowners as well as the building industry" said Jane Palmieri, Vice President of Dow Solar. "This pioneering product is reinventing the roof by turning it into a source of value for the homeowner. Builders now have the opportunity to differentiate their high-performing homes with a solar product that does not compromise the home's overall aesthetics. In addition, a simplified installation process allows roofing professionals to participate in the growing solar marketplace, which is a real game-changer for the industry."
Made in the USA, and backed by a 20 year performance warranty, the DOW POWERHOUSE Solar Shingle is a dual-functioning system that is certified as both a roofing and solar product, and built to withstand rain, hail and wind. It is a complete turnkey package that includes a custom designed system for each home, the inverter to convert DC to useable AC electricity, the utility interconnection so that credit is obtained for the electricity generated, and a web-based monitoring system that enables homeowners to engage with the performance of their POWERHOUSE System, and gives them peace of mind that they have made a smart and reliable investment in their home.
Dow and the other honorees will be featured in the March/April edition of MIT Technology Review, available on newsstands worldwide March 5, and online at technologyreview.com on February 20. Previous recipients include Apple, Google, GE, Facebook and Twitter.

roasted carrot and avocado salad
print now | return to original post
Roasted Carrot and Avocado Salad
Inspired by The Spotted Pig
1 pound carrots, scrubbed or peeled and cut into two-inch segments (angled if you're feeling fancy)
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 an avocado, pitted and sliced (we had a mega-'cado and only used 1/4 of it)
Juice of half a lemon
Roast the carrots: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Toss the carrot chunks in a medium bowl with two tablespoons of the olive oil, cumin and as generous of a helping of salt and pepper as you like. (We like a lot. Especially with sweet things like carrots.)
Spread them on a roasting sheet (I lined ours with foil because despite having a dishwasher these days, old must-create-fewer-dishes-at-all-times habits die hard) and roast for about 20 minutes, or until tender and browned. Of course, roasting time will vary depending on the thickness of your carrots. Our heftier chunks took over 30.
Finish the salad: Once the carrots are roasted, arrange them on a serving platter with slices of avocado on top. Drizzle the salad with the last tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice and extra salt and pepper, if it needs it. Eat immediately.
roasted carrot and avocado salad was originally published on smittenkitchen.com

Sister Sarah and I had supper at Mucho Burrito on Davie Street this evening.
The fella making our burritos was great. He was very helpful and friendly. Here's Sister Sarah ordering her veggie burrito.
I got a pork burrito with rice, beans, pork, cheese, medium salsa, green pepper and burrito sauce.
I love burritos and am particular about them. This was delicious! Sister Sarah enjoyed her burrito too.
Part of my combo was dessert. I chose cinnamon roll. It was made in-house and was okay.
Sister Sarah got cookies for her dessert and said they were good.
I looked online and see there are locations in downtown Toronto ... yay!
