Cheesy Zucchini Rice
Even though I've moved on to apples, pumpkin and other fall ingredients, I haven't forgotten about my old friend, Mr. Zucchini. It's so versatile - whether you're baking or preparing dinner for your family, there's something you can toss it in to add extra nutrients, texture or flavor. I made this recipe for the first time last month when I still had a few zucchini lingering in the bottom of my fridge and it was the perfect dinner for one. You simply cook the rice as you usually would, then add the zucchini to the pot to let it steam for a few minutes before stirring in the cheese. It only takes a few more minutes than making plain white rice, but it's so much more flavorful. Personally, I'm not a fan of cooking my rice in chicken broth, but you could use that instead of water if you prefer to add another dimension to the dish. I was surprised to find I actually enjoyed this rice even more at room temperature than I did when it was hot - maybe the flavors had more time to meld, who knows. On the off chance you still have zucchini growing in your garden or can still find a good deal at your market, this is a side dish worth trying. And if not, bookmark it for next summer!
On a completely unrelated note, I am beyond excited that the hockey season starts tonight! I've been waiting for this day all summer. Looking forward to seeing the Bruins raise the banner tonight and get started on what will hopefully be another successful year :)
Cheesy Zucchini Rice
adapted from Pink Parsley (originally from Comfort of Cooking via Real Simple)
1 1/2 cups water
1 cup long-grain white rice
2 tablespoons butter
1 medium zucchini, grated on the large holes of a cheese grater
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar
salt and pepper
Combine the water and rice in a medium saucepan. Stir gently and briefly to incorporate. Bring to a rolling boil then cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook for about 20 minutes, or until most of the liquid has been absorbed.
Turn off the heat, then add the butter and zucchini to the pan. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Stir to incorporate, then mix in the cheese and season to taste with salt and pepper.

I love that you are a sports fan. ;) Hockey has never been my thing but I am perpetually getting cock-eyed looks from my female friends because I know the Sunday night stats on Monday morning for football or whatever sport is in season that I adore.
This looks like a great easy side dish for fall and I can't wait to try it. - October 6, 2011 at 10:12 AM
- Kayte said...
Looks delicious, and I haven't forgotten about Mr. Zucchini either, or Mrs. Zucchini for that matter, or any of the Little Zucchinis. ;-) Love side dishes like this, will give it a go soon. Love a post where we get recipes, food lore, and updates on sporting events! It's like one-stop shopping!

What a great idea to change up rice!
- October 6, 2011 at 10:45 AM
- Eva @kitcheninspirations.wordpress.com said...
What a lovely presentation. I would probably make it from quinoa or barley so that it's got a bit more fibre, but I don't think it would lose anything from the change.

- Lizzy said...
This looks wonderful, Tracey...I don't think there's enough zucchini to make my hubby balk and I love the addition of cheese~

What a great side, and great way to sneak in those veggies. Go Bruins!!

I love how simple this is to make and it totally falls into the comfort food category for me with the melted cheese. Now I'm hungry. Guess I should start dinner and stop drooling over blogs.

When we had our trip to SouthEast Asia, I was surprised at how I have developed my love for white rice, or just rice for that matter. We had rice almost every meal. I am very much excited to try different dishes with rice as main ingredient. Love this rice with veggies!

That sounds really good. My girls love cheesy rice, so who knows, they might even eat it. =)

The perfect side dish. Can't wait to give it a try for myself.
- October 12, 2011 at 3:23 PM
- Crafty Beth said...
I gave this a try using leftover rice from a couple of days ago--it was calrose white rice, and I just loosened up the rice with a fork, stirred in the shredded zucchini, and microwaved, covered, for 2 minutes. Then I added the butter and cheese and stirred it all together and added salt and pepper to taste--it was a hit!

I loved finally seeing you all! I bought tickets to the merriweather this past summer, and I was so bummed when I found out I couldn't go. I've been following you all for a while, listening to your music daily and watching gentlemen of the road ;), and it was such a fantastic and fulfilling experience to see you all live. I'm actually pretty glad I missed the one at the merriweather because I might not have seen you in Montreal. The crowd's energy and passion three nights ago really made the night quite an experience, which I have not had at any other concert before. Again, you guys were absolutely brilliant, as expected, and congratulations on such a successful concert!!

Other symposiums have examined already-existing trends and have looked at development in the near future. But unlike the others, the Jubilee Symposium organised by the IFA to mark its 50th IFA Congress took a uniquely long-term look at tax system development.
This book comprises the symposium outline, the two key-note papers, and the main points of the panel discussion, including the chairperson s introductions to the different segments of the discussions. The discussion focuses on several key questions:
Visions of the Tax Systems of the XXIst Century also covers indirect taxes, labour taxation, capital taxation, and business taxation.

What Records You Must Keep Relating To Your Charitable Contributions
You must keep records to prove the amount of the cash and noncash contributions you make during the year. Which records you must keep depends on the amount of your contributions and whether they are cash or property contributions. New recordkeeping requirement were established for all contributions made after January 1, 2007. You cannot deduct a cash contribution, regardless of the amount, unless you keep as a record of the contribution, bank records (such as a cancelled check or bank statement containing the name of the charity, date and the amount) or a written communication from the charity. This Financial Guide discusses which records you must keep. Table of Contents
Cash ContributionsCash contributions include those paid by cash, check, electronic funds transfer, debit card, credit card, or payroll deduction. You cannot deduct a cash contribution, regardless of the amount, unless it is substantiated by one of the following:
Cash Contributions of $250 or More: You can claim a deduction for a contribution of $250 or more only if you have an acknowledgement of your contribution from the qualified organization or certain payroll deduction records. If you made more than one contribution of $250 or more, you must have either a separate acknowledgment for each or one acknowledgment that lists each contribution and the date of each contribution and shows your total contributions. To determine whether a contribution is $250 or more, do not combine separate contributions. For example, if you gave to the church $25 each week, your weekly payments do not need to be combined. Each payment is a separate contribution. The acknowledgment must be written and state whether you received any goods or services in return. If something was received in return, a description and good faith estimate of the value of the goods or services must be included. For payroll deductions, the payroll records must include a pay stub, Form W-2 or other document furnished by the employer that shows the date and the amount of the contribution, and a pledge card or other document prepared by or for the qualified organization that shows the name of the organization. If the pay stub, Form W-2, pledge card, or other document does not show the date of the contribution, you must also have another document that does show the date of the contribution. Noncash ContributionsFor a contribution not made in cash, these general rules apply: The records you must keep depend on whether your deduction for the contribution is:
Amount of contribution. In figuring whether your contribution is $500 or more, combine separate contributions of similar items during the year. If you received goods or services in return, reduce your contribution by the value of those goods or services. If you figure your deduction by reducing the fair market value of the donated property by its appreciation, your contribution is the reduced amount. Deductions of Less Than $250If you make any noncash contribution, you must get and keep a receipt from the charitable organization showing:
A letter or other written communication from the charitable organization acknowledging receipt of the contribution and containing the information in (1), (2), and (3) will serve as a receipt. You are not required to have a receipt where it is impractical to get one (for example, if you leave property at a charity's unattended drop site). Additional records. You must also keep reliable written records for each item of donated property. Your written records must include the following information.
Deductions of At Least $250 But Not More Than $500If you claim a deduction of at least $250 but not more than $500 for a noncash charitable contribution, you must get and keep an acknowledgement of your contribution from the qualified organization. If you made more than one contribution of $250 or more, you can have either a separate acknowledgement for each or one acknowledgement that shows your total contributions. The acknowledgement must contain the information in items (1) through (3) listed under Deductions of Less Than $250, earlier, and your written records must include the information listed in that discussion under Additional Records. 1. It must be written. 2. It must include:
3. You must get the acknowledgement on or before the earlier of:
Deductions Over $500 But Not Over $5,000If you claim a deduction over $500 but not over $5,000 for a noncash charitable contribution, you must have the acknowledgement and written records described under Deductions of At Least $250 But Not More Than $500. Your records must also include:
If you are not able to provide information on either the date you got the property or the cost basis of the property and you have a reasonable cause for not being able to provide this information, attach a statement of explanation to your return. Deductions Over $5,000If you claim a deduction of over $5,000 for a charitable contribution of one property item or a group of similar property items, you must have the acknowledgement and the written records described under Deductions Over $500 But Not Over $5,000. In figuring whether your deduction is over $5,000, combine your claimed deductions for all similar items donated to any charitable organization during the year. Generally, you must also obtain a qualified written appraisal of the donated property from a qualified appraiser. Qualified conservation contribution. If the gift was a "qualified conservation contribution," your records must also include the fair market value of the underlying property before and after the gift and the conservation purpose furthered by the gift. Out of Pocket ExpensesIf you render services to a qualified organization and have unreimbursed out of pocket expenses related to those services, the following three rules apply.
Car Expenses. If you claim expenses directly related to use of your car in giving services to a qualified organization, you must keep reliable written records of your expenses. Whether your records are considered reliable depends on all the facts and circumstances. Generally, they are reliable if you made them regularly and at the time you incurred the expense. Your records must show the name of the organization you were serving and the date each time you used your car for a charitable purpose. If you use the standard mileage rate of 14 cents a mile for 2011 and 2012, your records must show the miles you drove. If you use actual expenses to complete the deduction, your records must show the costs of operating the car for charitable purposes only.

First things first: have you entered the PB Crave giveaway yet?? You have until Tuesday, May 29!
Now–it's officially Memorial Day Weekend! I am so ready for some relaxing time. Our office closed at 1 this afternoon, so I am footloose and fancy free until Tuesday. Woohoo!
I'm sure a lot of you are planning on grilling at some point over the next few days. Visions of burgers, hot dogs, and delicious pasta salads have definitely been dancing in my head all week long. Chances are, though, if you're going to be grilling, you want a setup and cleanup that are as easy and stress-free as possible. But did you ever think that you could be eco-friendly, too?

The Island School's Karoline Bellamy created this T-shirt logo. She is a fourth grade at the school. |
Lemon Bay Conservancy is working closely with the Boca Grande Chamber and Capt. Sandy Melvin as a "conservation partner" for the big four-day set of tarpon tournaments and the festival from May 17-20. The Lemon Bay Conservancy will be selling children's tarpon tournament T-shirts on Saturday and Sunday, May 19 and 20, at the street festival.
These kid's tarpon tournament T-shirts are very unique and special, as they were designed by a child attending The Island School, fourth grader Karoline Bellamy. The shirts were donated by Capt. Sandy Melvin to help fund the Wildflower Tarpon Project Student Intern Scholarship program.
Lemon Bay Conservancy's logo is on the front and a tarpon design is on the back.
The first major step in the implementation of Lemon Bay Conservancy's newest project has taken place, toward a goal of conservation and improvement of tarpon and snook habitat. Scientists will be able to begin on-site scientific tagging and tracking of the existing natural juvenile tarpon populations at Wildflower beginning late this summer, with the goal of gradually improving their habitat in our three saltwater Lemon Creek ponds.
"We are still actively seeking more donations for this unique University of Florida Mote biology student scholarship program study that will be taking place right here in our backyard, with a goal of improving our area's Lemon Bay and Boca Grande tarpon population over the next 50-plus years," said Jim Cooper, Lemon Bay Conservancy president. "It is a true legacy project."
By continuing the program after restoration, they will provide the first data on the effects of juvenile tarpon habitat restoration on juvenile tarpon.
Of the $120,000 needed to support the monitoring and tagging program, the Conservancy has raised $64,000.

Seneca County Board of Elections made a decision Friday night on how a one-time, 3-percent salary supplement given to all county employees by the previous county commissioners will be dispersed.
The board was given $3,392.53 to spread to its three employees, and the board voted to give $1,000 to each of two clerks and give $1,392.53 to director Andrea Carroll.
Board member James Fruth said the board decided to give Carroll more because she has worked without a deputy director since the retirement of Janet Leahy in December.
The money will be paid to the employees in two payments one after the primary election and the other after the general election.
The board also discussed the hiring of the next deputy director in an executive session. None of the candidates were given, but clerk Donna Theis has been previously mentioned as one of the candidates and has been given the support of the Seneca County Republican Party.

3) Did you use the 9 speed freewheels that came with both bikes? Any trouble fitting them (i.e. did you need a spacer washer and/or have to spread the dorpouts)?
4) How does the thuduster on the Alias hardtail ride? Tell me I don't need to buy a new bike as well...
Great build, thanks for sharing.

I'm very satisfied. It over passed my expectations. thanks.
Pickguard material was just like they said great pc of material. Easy to work with and looks great on my guild x79 guitar
This works well. Sanding this on very edge works wonderfull for thin white edge or sand more for a wider white edge. Take plastic covering off after cutting and installing. WOW! Nice.
I just wish you guys would post where the products are manufactured. I didn't know this was made in Korea until I received it and there was the big gold sticker on the back. I prefer to purchase made in USA products and will call before I order next time. Other than that this was a Good Product!
I ordered a sheet of the 3 ply stock to make a custom pick guard and other misc parts for one of my current projects, and was very happy with the results. Cuts easy, drills and routs clean, and is nice and rigid. Apply a little heat and it bends well and holds its shape for custom LP style jack plates too! Plenty of material for multiple pieces, and as always, shipping was super speedy. Thanks again StewMac!
I bought a sheet of the 3 ply laminate to make a pick guard for an archtop guitar. The material is easy to cut and file and the end result is what I had hoped for.
I used this pickguard material to create a custom pickguard for an epiphone junior project, as well as custom cut control and switch cavity covers. Using a fine tooth hand saw it rough cut like a dream. The material held up well to smoothing the edges with a dremel(using cutting wheel at the lowest possbile speed setting) without burning the plastic or warping the material. in my opinion, this is a great buy for the price and very easy to work with. Plus, with a small sanding block and some 220 grit paper, it was very easy to create a 45 degree beveled edge without needing to purchase a special router bit.This allows you to be totally in control of how much material you are taking down as long as you proceed carefully and take your time. Highly recommended product for custom pieces
Not much to report. It is good material. I replaced a white pick guard on a guitar with a handcut black one. Looks great!
Good stuff for pick guards, etc. Works well and does the job, but seems like the price is always going up and now it seems as if the blank is smaller than ever.. and made in Korea!?!
Fast delivery, good product and easy to work with, sounds like another win from Stew Mac to me. Thanks again! and as a plus there is enough product to make 2 pickguards with, I will be making a second one once I get my skill set up thanks again!

I've always had a lot of respect for the WW 2 generation. They grew up in the Depression and at 18 were handed rifles to go fight the Japs and Germans. Yet they did this with a hell of a lot less whinning than today's generation. My father passed away in May. He was in the WW 2 generation. He served in Patton's 3rd Army and was awarded a ton of decorations including the Silver Star and 3 Purple Hearts. My mother grew up in Hitler's Third Reich. She was a teenager at wars end. She talks so casually about what it was like getting bombed and being in a nation that was getting crushed by its adversaries. Things she talks about like going down stairs with blown in window frames from the bombs and while bombs are still falling and exploding she made her way to the bomb shelter. Or seeing Munich completely devastated. Makes me feel like all the whinning I did growing up seem so petty. This past Friday my mom's neighbor passed away. He was 95 and a vet of the 101st Airborne in WW 2. Its really sad to see this generation passing away. When I was little you couldn't turn around without bumping into a WW 2 vet. Now it seems that a great generation is almost gone. All that personal history will soon be soon gone. Just seems like we are losing so much history with the passing of this generation. |

Most of the Dads in our 1965 neighborhood were vets. They could band together, organize and get projects done. I remember a little league field getting built in 2 weeks. We're talking cinder-block dugouts, fences, backstop, turf infield and a concession stand. Everything up to 1960s safety standards The materials just 'showed up' and the Dads (and sons) provided the labor. One (or more) magical evenings (I think my memory is merging multiple events) they wandered out to the empty lot and played ball with the boys until about 15 Dads were playing alongside us shavers. This included the Dad missing 3 fingers on his throwing hand from shrapnel and the Dad whose joke about his jagged scars was 'there were 6 reported bayonet wounds in Europe and I have 2 of them'… |

Hank....they were a cut the BS and get it done generation. My dad wouldn't share his wartime experiences with anyone that wasn't family or a combat vet. He told me how when he was little the WW 1 vets were his dad and his friends dads. They would play baseball with the kids at the city park. Savez....That is sad about your grandpa. I don't see how anyone can go through what these guys went through and come out anywhere near normal at the end of it all. My dad was a link to the Civil War generation. His best friends grandpa was the last surviving Civil War vet in the small town my dad grew up in back in the 30's. He said the vet would go down to the local store and play dominoes. He taught dad how to play and would tell him stories of charging up Missionary Ridge and other memories of the war. |

I'd not say they 'cut the BS' but rather they knew how to work around it. As an 8-year-old I knew what SNAFU meant without knowing what it stood for |

BHR62- It is indeed sad to see the end of the WW II generation. Over 2/3 of a century has passed since the end of the war. As the link below shows, there are only about a million still living out of over 16 million that served in the military during the war. The National WWII Museum | New Orleans: Honor: WWII Veterans Statistics I knew many, many of them, including several that I was related to. (Some would be well over 100 years old if they were still living). I even served with a few WW II vets. Now ALL of those that I knew are gone. I miss them a lot.

No, not all the personal history. All the people to relate that history, yes. But at least some have recorded their experinces so generations to come will be able to read what life was like for these individuals. As for the fact that it will be sad to see them go, well that's a common feature of warfare. The vets get older and they slowly pass away one by one. It's sad to loose them because they were there and know even better what that was like. Their wives and girlfriends know what it was like on the home front, as your mother can attest to, and can paint us a picture there. I've been lucky to speak with a few vets about their experinces and always feel a sense of enthrallment to listen to them. But for me the saddest thing personally is that it wasn't until after my great-aunt on my father's side died that I learned my great-uncle had been a WWII vet (he'd passed before she did and I don't remember any mention of it at his funeral). I never knew either of my grandfathers, both men died when my folks were kids. I know my mother's father served in the Pacific during the war, but as I've understood things for whatever the reason my father's father never served and never learned why he didn't (was he a 4F or was there some other reason). I only found out my great-uncle had served when I went to help move some things out of their house after her death, which left me wishing I had known before he'd passed. Maybe he wouldn't have wanted to talk about it, maybe he would have, I'll never know. Never talked about this with either grandmother, with my mother's mother I did ask about what life during the Depression was like, and with my father's mother I talked a little about the Titanic (she was born the same day the ship set sail so she had a bit of a fascinaion with it). Something to think about, many of the same young men who fought in WWII served in Korea. And thirty to forty years from now the same thing will hold true for the men and women who served in Vietnam. |

Hellcat- In some cases, it is the same people who served throughout. A trip to a national cemetery will reveal memorials that say: "World War II, Korea, Vietnam." Some were on active duty at the end of World War II, only to find themselves in Korea five years later, and in Vietnam fifteen years after that. A few of these individuals remained in the military during the great drawdown in the late 1940s. Many others were recalled to active duty after the Korean War began. Some of those made the decision to stay in the military and do 20 years of active duty, often ending their careers around 1970 when they were perhaps 50 years old. |

The ironic thing is I never thought of Vietnam even though I knew some of the officer in Vietnam had served in WWII. I guess I thought more of the enlisted and just thought those who had served as enlisted in WWII, while they would have been five years older in Korea, would have been a little too old to serve in Vietnam. Never thought about the fact that some folks, officers or enlisted, would have remained in. Should have but I didn't. I wouldn't be so certain that every high school class from '43 to '45 went to war. |

Hellcat- I met a number of officers who fit into the WW II to Vietnam category. I feel compelled to present one who I had personal contact with. Jack L. Treadwell - Find A Grave Memorial (What better name could an infantry officer have than: "Treadwell?") I met COL Treadwell at then 4th Army HQ at Ft. Sam Houston, TX a few years before he retired. At that time I was a young officer whose duties included giving briefings to senior staff. One of these officers was COL Treadwell. He was greatly respected by superiors as well as subordinates. VIPs, both military and civilian, came to visit him at the HQ. At the time I knew him, COL Treadwell was quiet, even serene. He always put me at ease with a smile and encouraging words. I was sorry to see him leave, and saddened by news of his death in 1977. He was one of the finest of the: "Greatest Generation." |

On this 69th anniversary of the landings in Normandy, it is worthwhile to reflect on the passing of World War II veterans from the realm of politics, as well as from the society as a whole. With Lautenberg Gone, WW II Vets Fade From Politics | RealClearPolitics Over 16 million Americans served in the military in World War II, and 400,000 (one in forty) were killed. But the rest came home and millions took advantage of the GI Bill and got educations. For the most part, they prospered and advanced not only their own interests, but those of the society as a whole. Many of these veterans transitioned from a military life to a political one and were proven to be good leaders. They faced down a formidable foe in the Soviet Union, and history shows that they prevailed in the end. There was a time a few decades ago when World War II vets were prominent at all levels of government, as well as business, and every other type of endeavor. Those days have now passed, much to my regret. Even if I profoundly disagreed with some of them politically, I could still respect them for having shown that they had backbone in fighting a war for national survival. Our society is different nowadays. The percentage of leaders in government who have served in the military is the lowest that it has been since World War II. Veterans in Congress at lowest level since World War II - CNN.com The draft was ended 40 years ago. While my personal preference is for a professional military, I can see some advantages in requiring citizens to serve in the armed forces. Forty years ago, a young man still had to consider the military question when he pondered his future. That is no longer the case. Only about half of one percent of the population are currently on active duty in the military. That number will soon be reduced further. During World War II, most families were: "Invested" in the military. They had a family member serving, or at least some other relative, perhaps. These days, only a tiny percentage of the population has any connection at all to the military. This tiny percentage is called upon to make the sacrifices associated with fighting the country's wars, while all the rest are encouraged to go out and spend money. For its part, the small subculture that is the military feels more and more isolated from the general population. For the most part, those leading the country these days have never had any connection to the military. In my view, the country was better off when its leaders had proven themselves in the crucible of war, and knew well the costs and sacrifices that it demanded. |

Wales Audit Office / Swyddfa Archwilio Cymru
Available available in: Cymraeg / English
Header links:
The Auditor General for Wales has today published a new report on Neath Port Talbot Council looking at how well the Council is improving its services.
The Annual Improvement Report has been prepared by the Wales Audit Office (WAO) on behalf of the Auditor General for Wales. It asks if the Council is:
• well managed
• serving people well
• supporting people in need
• helping people to develop
• helping create a safe, prosperous, pleasant place to live, and
• knows what it needs to do to improve
The report focuses on the Council's own priorities for improvement, setting out what the Council needs to do to improve its services. Each year the WAO is set to produce a report looking into what progress the Council has made.
The WAO wants to find out what you think of the services the Council is providing in your area and will be giving you an opportunity to comment in the future.
Notes to Editors:
• The report has been prepared by the Wales Audit Office on behalf of the Auditor General for Wales as required by the Local Government (Wales) Measure 2009. The Auditor General for Wales assesses the compliance of Welsh improvement authorities (county councils, county borough councils, national park authorities and fire and rescue authorities) with the improvement requirements of Part 1 of the Local Government (Wales) Measure 2009.
• The Wales Audit Office is independent of government and is responsible for the annual audit of some £20 billion of annual public expenditure.
• Its mission is to promote improvement, so that people in Wales benefit from accountable, well-managed public services that offer the best possible value for money. It is also committed to identify and spreading good practice across the Welsh public sector.
