- I had purchased a a $30 Byer hammock...was comfy, but was too short for me. My head and feet kept falling off the edges of the hammock and onto the netting. Main reason for this trouble is that the hammock wasn't long enough.
Then I got my claytor in the mail. It's so much longer (nearly 10 feet, compared to the nearly, but not quite, 7 foot Byer) so you can actually stretch out more and lay flatter without your head or your feet hanging off the edge. Length really is key here.
It has a lot of great features in a hammock that should be selling for a lot more (if we compare it to other commercial hammocks on the market). Nearly everything is double reinforced. There were a few loose threads that I had to take a lighter too, but nothing that compromised its stitching strength that I could notice.
The tarp that comes with it may leave you desiring more, though. I purchased a speer winter tarp (www.speerhammocks.com) to use with my claytor for better coverage to protect from wind, rain, and 'peepers' better.
Since there's a pocket to put a pad in (making this hammock a double layered hammock) I used that to help me stay warm this past weekend in the mountains. It only got around 34 deg. F., but with a pad and down bag combo I was able to keep toasty. Though, I am envious of folks who own an underquilt. I think if I had one of these, I wouldn't have suffered cold sides every once in awhile (every hammock will suffer this problem...so no biggie, I used hand/foot warmers for extra heat boost).
If you don't want to actually make your own hammock [yet], like myself, I think that this hammock is a good compromise. It's very affordable (even though he's been raising the price about $10 every year) and has all the basic features anyone could want in a camping hammock, including it being in camo.

Ced Hughes - Lights!
Artist: Ced Hughes
Producer: Xaphoon Jones
Album: One Day We'll Wake Up
Avg Rating: 3.9 ( 9 votes )
It was October of 2010 and we were hearing a lot about Ced Hughes' upcoming album One Day We'll Wake Up. In fact, judging by ratings for previous single Shoot Down the Stars it could be said that the Booth was eagerly awaiting the Virginia/N. Carolinian's project. And then….a mysterious hiatus that was recently broken with the release of Youth Blood and now the exclamation point enhanced Lights! For the latest stop in his comeback tour Ced grabs a haunting, Ellie Goulding sample originally created by Chiddy Bang producer Xaphoon Jones for his Mixtape Vol. 2 project and adds his own spin, adding a lyrical aggression absent the first time around. Touching on everything from his own commitment to escaping the Earth's creative gravity to dropping one of the better old school Transformers references you're every going to hear, this is yet another worthy addition to Hughes' widely expanding catalog. If you're feeling all of the Lights! on Ced's latest be sure to cop his One Day We'll Wake Up Mixtape, (finally) set to drop via DJBooth later this month.

Roasty Smoky Brussels Sprouts with Chickpeas
With all this talk of cold going around here, you might be reasoning it is because I forgot what winter was like while I was in Texas. I assure you, this is not the case. But it does kind of make me resent it slightly and appreciate the cold spells.
Truth be told, we have been having difficulties with our furnace. During the coldest days, it also goes on strike. I spoke about it briefly here and thought a new thermostat was going to keep us warm over the winter. Imagine my dismay as I come home after work to a frigid home… and I could not get the furnace to work. Our landlord told us to sit tight, he would get us a space heater and the repair man would arrive the next morning.
Um, yeah. Not a happy camper. I went upstairs and decided to warm up the bed. It would be a cold night.
Turns out when Rob came home, he had a bit more patience in the freezing basement and reset the furnace. We were saved!
Obviously I didn't make this with our frigid kitchen but it would have quickly warmed it up. (I opted for a quickie rewarming of leftover broccoli dal instead). It is a rather simple combination of spices and nooch for roasted chickpeas and brussels sprouts. Easy peasy and quite delicious. Definitely give it a try and let me know what you think.

Yellow Moong Dal and Spinach Curry
There is a special kind of familiarity to the Indian curries Rob and I cook up each week. Certainly, we have our favourites on a constant rotation, but most of our curries involve simmering some beans with garlic, ginger and turmeric with some tomatoes, perhaps some greens with a finishing tarka with cumin and a spritz from lemon or lime juice and a cilantro garnish.
This curry hits on nearly all those points. It did not disappoint.
As the weather remains cold, I am honestly considering making a curry each week. Definitely comfort food. My how things have changed. There was a time I would not have touched Indian food but over the years, Rob has shown me the way.

Jamaican Jerk Plantain Soup
Woosh! Can you see the steam? One perk of the black background, although it also picks up the dust, too! HA!
Hope you are keeping yourself warm during this recent freeze. It was -30C/-22F overnight with wind chill. It is times like this that you can remind yourself: only a few short months until our wedding/honeymoon in the Caribbean. And then you remind yourself: WHAT ELSE DO I NEED TO DO???? Thankfully my Mom keeps reminding me of all things I don't know: making the veil, finding something borrowed, etc. While Rob and I take care of the very hard decisions: garifuna dancers vs firedancer (we chose both!!) and where to go for photos (beach vs jungle… vs where are cliffs.. we want cliffs).
In any case, here is another bowl of a warm, vibrant soup/stew. Jamaican jerk inspired with allspice and thyme (and also cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg) with colourful red bell peppers, yellow plantains and chickpeas with a sprinkle of green onions swimming in a fragrant coconut broth. This is not a hot and spicy soup (like most things jerk), so add as much heat as you like.
Are you already longing for the summer?

Cozy Red Lentil and Kale Soup
I don't know how many of you were working last Friday. Friday, January 2nd. It was a weird sensation. Both a Monday feeling, with a mountain of work, combined with the excitement by the time it was 4:30pm and I realized the weekend was so close!
But yesterday was a brutal Monday. I missed my bus because I shovelled the snow that morning, all the time freezing in the cold gust of wintry air. Work was mostly back to usual and the gym, well, let's say we nearly doubled our gym goers.. you know, from the regular 5 people to over 10. I had to learn to share.
Suffice it to say, I was a bit cranky by the time I returned home. Thank goodness I knew it would be a delicious week. This is another one of my new simple recipes. I figured I already have a ton of red lentil soups that I have shared, this time, I winged it with what I had in my kitchen.
I loved your encouragement to share the recipe inspirations. Unlike the last time, this time I have a recipe. Red lentils, carrot, tomatoes and kale were combined in a flavourful broth made with smoked paprika, Old Bay Seasoning and Worcestershire sauce. I don't know what made it so flippin fantastic, but it was a nicely sweet soup (from the carrots??) that was balanced by the Worcestershire sauce and fresh garlic finish. It worked really, really well. And it was perfect to comfort me after my first day back.

Simple Lentil Chilaquiles
When I said our meals have become more simple, this is probably not what you had in mind. I had not planned on sharing this either, but the meal was delicious and I scooped together the little bits left unclaimed and snapped photos to share. I loved the meal, I loved these photos, and had to share.
In an honesty, Rob is a great cook. I merely helped to assemble the ingredients. Rob was making an off-the-cuff version of our tofu migas but as we ate it, we thought it reminded us of the chilaquiles we would devour from Radical Eats in Houston. Minus the deep-fried tortillas. Eerily enough, Erica shared her baked version of chilaquiles (recipe here with black beans and kale), which I read afterwards. Great minds think alike! We opted not to make it sopping in a tomato-broth, as we used sun-dried tomatoes to help keep the chips crispy.
In any case, while these were simple to make, it brought together a few components we already had. Namely, we made JL's Lentil TVP Taco Filling earlier in the week (I changed the spices slightly) as our ground meat substitute. My cousin also gifted us some homemade tomatillo salsa. It was quite spicy but worked well when mixed directly with the other ingredients.
In short, we started by using almost stale corn tortilla chips by baking them in the oven. Rob sauteed some sweet onions (reserving some for the topping) and sprinkled them with garlic granules (too lazy to pull the real garlic from the fridge). Next, he added the Lentil-TVP taco filling, heating it up. Because we were out of plain tofu, he added 4 eggs along with some soy milk and the tomatillo salsa, scrambling all the ingredients together. Once fully cooked, he stirred in the baked tortilla chips, heating all the way through. A sprinkle of fresh lime juice and a side of tomato salsa solidified this as a perfect New Year's Day brunch.
I am not sure if quasi-recipes like this help you. What do you think?

My 12 Favourite Recipes from 2014
If I thought 2013 was filled with change, it was nothing compared to 2014. Moving from Houston back to Toronto was bittersweet, leaving a community and friends I still miss dearly. However, I am finally working at my "forever" job, and it only took 14 years of school after high school. After a somewhat heart-wrenching vacation in Madagascar and South Africa wherein I broke my leg, and now lengthy rehab process, my health has remained important. In the kitchen, this has meant more simple recipes and now that I am back in the gym, I only go a few times a week. 2015 is going to be a wonderful year. At least the first part will be spent preparing for our upcoming wedding. Best wishes for all of you this upcoming year as well, wherever that may bring you.
These were my favourite eats from 2014:
As we embrace more minimalism, I certainly don't have enough mustards to host a party right now, but this bowl of my favourite foods was a delicious result.
2. Laotian Larb Tofu Lettuce Wraps
Perhaps an odd choice for recipe #2, but I veritably feasted on these wraps in Houston and this is a way to bring a small part of Houston wherever I may be.
Another fabulously oft-repeated recipe. A flavourful tomato-based marinade for roasted cauliflower.
4. Roasted Cauliflower Salad with Fried Capers and Pickled Currants
It is no surprise that 2014 was year of the cauliflower (Rob thinks it was year of the taco), but this was a delicious salad with roasted cauliflower, creamy avocado and my newest obsession: pickled capers!
Another favourite salad combination from this year: coconut bacon, creamy avocado and smoked tofu with quinoa and arugula.
6. Cuban Beer-Infused Black Beans
One cannot forget to include beans and this was one brew that was utterly delicious.
Certainly not authentic (my Indian Chickpea Curry with Mango Powder is more traditional), but this curry uses mangoes instead of mango powder for a fun twist on chickpea curry.
Probably the quintessential 2014 dish with both beans and roasted cauliflower, the spiced saucy sauce made this a wonderful bowl of goodness.
While I only shared this a few days ago, this has been repeated a few times over the year and it has yet to disappoint. Hearty leafy greens like kale work well against the flavourful broth.
10. Raw Brownie Cake with a Chocolate Avocado Frosting
In my quest to use massive amount of coconut flour, this was a delicious no-bake cake that was a deliciously decadent dessert.
Bonus: 11. Angela's Glo Bars
This recipe was the beginning of a relove of granola and granola-type bars. This was my favourite of the bunch packed with oats, chia seeds and sunflower seeds.
Bonus 12. Chai Spiced Rice Pudding
These are a bit labour intensive to make (which is why they are a bonus favourite) but the flavours cannot be beat. A luscious dessert that is sure to please.
What were your favourite finds from the year? Did I miss any of your favourites?
Here's to a happy new year!

Miso Hemp Split Pea Soup
This holiday was too short.
Rob is still at home but definitely not loafing about. He has decided he can do more cleaning (aka throwing things out) when I am not around. Apparently, I make throwing things out difficult. Case in point: now that we have zero devices that can read CDs and DVDs (except the car which can read CDs), we want to get rid of all our CDs. I completely agree. However, after Rob nicely packed them up, I went through them and pulled out ones to give to my parents. How could they not like Delerium, Orbital and Bjork?
Anyways, yesterday Rob decided to try to sell them. I was impressed Rob got almost $80 from the closest music store for their top picks. He will try another store tomorrow.
Now, I also want to sell my DSLR. Does anyone want a Nikon D80? Let me know!
Anyways, still learning the ropes with my pressure cooker. I really like yellow split peas but I knew my stash was old… and I don't like finicky beans that just won't cook. Pressure cooker to the rescue! I took a standard recipe and put it in the pressure cooker for 15 minutes, a bit longer than JL's recommended 6 minutes for her split pea soup and marginally longer than this recommended 10 minutes. Well, let's just say the pressure cooker pulverized my split peas. The extra liquid sopped it up nicely. No immersion blender needed for such a silky soup.
Even without a pressure cooker, this soup would be easy to make. And highly recommended, too. The miso adds a nice umami and the hemp seeds added a bit more texture which was lost with the split pea explosion. I added a garnish of crushed walnuts, too.
Need other ideas for split peas:
Split Pea Soup with Lemon and Spinach
Smoky Split Pea Soup with Roasted Garlic and Sage
Lemon-Ginger Split Pea Soup with Toasted Coriander
Finnish Double Pea Stew with Apples
Split Pea Dal with Ginger and Lime
Ethiopian Split Pea and Kabocha Squash Stew with Collards
Kik Alicha (Ethiopian Split Pea Puree)
Iraqi-Inspired Eggplant and Seitan Stew

Coconut Chana Saag
I had all the best intentions of sharing a chocolate-based recipe this week. Sadly, not one but two recipes were a flop. How could that possibly be? One we had to throw out it was that bad but the other will still be happily eaten.
This will be a quick post to share another of my favourite repeater recipes from this year: Isa's Coconut Chana Saag. I am still not sure why it looks like most of the curries I share, but this one is flippin fantastic. Perhaps the touch of fennel brought it to the next level? In any case, it is delicious and highly recommended.
While most people might be on holidays already (Rob is!!), I get 2 out of 3 statutory holidays off and otherwise working through the remainder of the days. Rob thinks I am working too much but I try to reassure him that this way I save my vacation for our honeymoon.
I may pop back in with a few quickie posts but if not, best wishes for the new year and happy holidays. :)

Black-Eyed Pea and Collard Green Chili & JL's Vegan Pressure Cooking Giveaway
Need a great idea for a gift? How about a pressure cooker along with a new cookbook.
Pressure cookers are not so scary. In fact, they are pretty awesome.
I have mentioned it only in passing, but Rob gifted me a pressure cooker for my birthday and I have been experimenting with it over the past few months. At first, I was experimenting with cooking different beans and grains. It felt awesome to think "I want some cooked chickpeas" and an hour later, after adding the dried beans to the pressure cooker, I had myself some chickpeas. The no-soak required beans has alleviated my freezer congestion (I oftentimes freeze leftover beans) and made me more creative in the kitchen.
First of all, let me not mislead you: Pressure cookers need time to come up to pressure. In my machine, it takes 20 minutes. So while it may seem incredible that you only need to cook black eyed peas for 6-8 minutes, that is in addition to a 20 minute warm up and more minutes cool down (unless you release the pressure manually). I have an electric machine, so that benefit is that it does not need a burner on the oven and you can safely walk away while it does its thing. The downside is that it does not come up to as high a pressure as the stovetop ones, which is what most cookbooks cater to. Also, any recipes that all for sauteing need a separate skillet. There are pros and cons of each, as JL points out in her fabulous new cookbook, Vegan Pressure Cooking (available online now! it arrived early!).
In addition to her approachable FAQ on how to begin pressure cooking, she also has a host of recipes to start you on your new pressure cooking journey. She answers your looming fear: How can I avoid blowing up my pressure cooker? as well as Why do cooking times vary? Which pressure cooker should I buy? and How does an electric pressure cooker differ from a stove top pressure cooker? She has reference tables for pressure cooking vegan staples (vegetables, beans and grains) and her recipes are categorized similarly.
In her Beans and Grains chapter, she includes basic recipes like Italian lentils but also (slightly) more involved recipes like Dill Long-Grain White Rice; Oat, Amaranth and Carrot Porridge and Cinnamon-Curried Chickpeas. In her Soups and Stews chapter, her recipes span Chik'n Lentil Noodle Soup, very Veggie Split Pea Soup and Tofu Chickpea Artichoke and Potato Soup. Personally, those looked like one-pot meals to me, but JL has even more one-pot meals in chapter four including Gingered Adzuki Beans, Greens and Grains; Vegan "Bacon" and Cabbage and Soy Curl Mac 'n Cheese. If you thought this was all beans and grains (yes, all the beans are dear to my heart), she also has a chapter for meal helpers and veggie sides which highlights recipes like steamed kabocha squash, savoury root vegetable mash, rosemary and thyme Brussels sprouts, and jackfruit and sweet potato enchiladas. Chapter six is for sauces and dips, and JL has a trick for her pressure cooker hummus and other savoury options like dal dip and ginger-cinnamon white bean gravy. And when you thought there was nothing more to make in the pressure cooker, the last chapter is for dessert! JL uses beans in a coconut-gingered black bean brownie but also includes recipes that rely more on the pressure cooker such as easy applesauce and peachy butter.
I think you know may understand why I may want another pressure cooker. I want to make all the things. Thankfully, I have had the cookbook for a while and managed to squeeze out a new recipe each weekend. In theory a pressure cooker may help me cook more often, but old habits die hard and I like my weekend batch cooking. Thankfully, I was able to share my favourite recipe thus far: JL' Black-Eyed Pea and Collard Green Chili. Only after I got the photos, did I realize it was from her cover. Good choice, JL, good choice. Also it is a good thing I am not your photographer. ;)
In any case, I even added JL's suggested 2 cups of celery and as a confessed celery hater, it was still very good. I still really liked it. The tomato sauce was deliciously savoury and worked well with the black eyed peas. This recipe, like nearly everything in the cookbook, could easily be adapted to use without a pressure cooker. You would just need to wait a bit longer. With that being said, I really think this is a good, solid vegan cookbook, pressure or no pressure cooker. I love its focus on quick and easy cooking featuring whole foods.

Sesame Wow Greens (A Spin on Oshitashi) + Vegan Eats World Giveaway
Another oldie but goodie. I have been waiting to share this for a while. And now that I think about it, while the flavours are not holiday-themed, they are quite festive and cute as little mounds of green. A fabulous way to eat your greens: slightly sweetened, with a nice hit of vinegar, balanced by a homemade tahini paste and a touch of heat.
Courtesy of Terry Hope Romero'sVegan Eats World, I have told you about it before. Earlier this year, it was re-released as a paperback. Exactly the same as the original (sadly, including the subpar index) but it reminded me of some of my favourite recipes (Rob loves the Ethiopian lentils) and a lot more I still have bookmarked. With 300 recipes, this is a treasure trove of international recipes with a creative twist from Terry.
While I have many favourites from the book, the Smoky Sauerkraut Mushroom Soup (Shchi) is still one of my favourites we both really like the breakfast spin on bahn mi, I thought it was great to share a quick and easy way to add more greens to your meals. I have only ever made this with spinach, as is more traditional, you could also try chard, kale and collard greens. You no longer have an excuse when you come home with vibrant greens and uncertain how to cook them. If you don't like leafy greens altogether, I suggest trying this similar dish which is Braised Tempeh with Green Beans in a Sesame Sauce. It is a bit more lemony but still very good.
Thankfully, the publisher allowed me to giveaway the cookbook to a reader living in the United States or Canada. To be entered in the random draw for the book, please leave a comment below telling me about your favourite international cuisine. The winner will be selected at random on December 20, 2014.

Mung Bean Tostadas & Lusty Vegan Cookbook Giveaway
I told you it was a good time for vegan cookbooks. Here is the latest cute offering, The Lusty Vegan. It is a cookbook focusing on relationships. Being vegan in a relationship can be a little tricky at times and there are approachable tips and delicious recipes to satisfy the most un-vegan. Trust me, there is almost nothing as sexy than a man that can cook and these recipes span the gamut of simple to complex, such that you might actually want to work together in the kitchen.
Heart of Palm Lobster Rolls, anyone? Tempeh Fries with Dill Avocado Dip? Miso-Vermouth Braised Drunken Bok Choy? Habanero Jackfruit Fajitas? Cherry Cobbler with Cocoa Nibs? These recipes are unique but I will admit, mostly on the elaborate side. They are matched by the stage of the relationship – trying to impress your partner, trying to impress the parents, classic vegan dishes and even desserts if you ever break up.
They make me want to try new dishes but let's be honest, right now I try to keep things stress-free in the kitchen and I think that helps both Rob and I. Of course, it is natural to want to impress your partner, but it isn't sustainable. Does that mean we've become a boring couple? I certainly hope not. Life just doesn't always revolve around food. :)
So now, a little about these tostadas. Instead of pinto beans, mung beans substitute in the refried beans. I was curious to try them in something new, although they were a bit mealy for my liking. Although after I covered it with toppings, I barely noticed. I added cooked quinoa, cabbage and carrots, as an ode to my Lime-Spiked Black Bean and Quinoa Kale Wrap. Feel free to add whatever you have lurking in your fridge.

Eat Your Greens Soup with Edamame
I had a good run of giveaways there. I was considering whether I could do an entire month of giveaways but quickly discounted that by writing this post. Although, to be fair, this was a recipe I discovered while previously reviewing a cookbook. This soup, in its original incarnation, belongs to Angela from within The Oh She Glows Cookbook. While I love the glo bar recipe I shared earlier, this is the soup I keep returning to, time and time again.
I have a hard time explaining what the soup is. Angela called it a detox soup which makes me cringe, but it is filled with a nicely fragrant broth made from ginger, cumin with a touch of cinnamon and filled with loads and loads of vegetables. Mushrooms, broccoli and carrot. Sometimes I use kale or collards, sliced into thin strips, but this time I used a crunchy cruciferous mix of kale, cabbage and brussels sprouts for more variety. I also continued with the green theme and used frozen edamame as my protein of choice. It fits well with the uniquely Asian twist brought by the last minute addition of shredded nori.
Like the recent article in The Guardian addressed, You can't detox your body. It's a myth. So how do you get healthy? A healthy mix of vegetables with protein is indeed the way to go.
Looking for more good articles, these were good finds:
The secret to a long, happy marriage – So far, I think Rob and I are doing very well in this regard :)
Everything I thought about recovery is a lie – An excellent post about recovery from an eating disorder.
Why do pigs oink in English, boo boo in Japanese, and nöff-nöff in Swedish? – Rob has always wondered why Polish dogs say "hau hau". But do you know what noises porcupines make? Very cute noises.
Floating feasts – Almost makes me want to go on a cruise. Almost… Anyways a great article about food on cruise ships
A Warning on Nutmeg – Beware of nutmeg overload!
Secret Lives of Passwords – What does your password say about yourself?
Anyways, it is a good time for vegan cookbooks and I have a few more to tell you about. I hope to finish my reviews before the holidays so it is like a mini present for the winners. :)

Balsamic-Maple Brussels Sprouts & Sweet Potato & Giveaway for But I Could Never Go Vegan!
Rob is away this week for work. He likes to update me on his day-to-day life…. like what they serve for breakfast at work, especially when it is unusual like Brussels sprouts. I would be excited about that, too! I have had Brussels for breakfast once, when we used them in this curried dill tofu scramble. Turns out I had just made Brussels sprouts as a vegetable side and it was so good, I could possibly consider eating it for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
I mean it includes all good things: roasted Brussels sprouts, roasted sweet potato, both in a sticky tangy-sweet glaze courtesy of balsamic vinegar and maple syrup. I like how the nutritional yeast adds a tackiness to the marinade and thickens it up, helping it to coat all the vegetables. I opted to skip the dried cranberries and I excluded them purely on principle. I had a sneaking suspicion that fresh/frozen cranberries would be surreal in here. I included them in this Balsamic Curry Roasted Vegetable dish and their tart juiciness would have complemented the dish well.
The recipe is courtesy of Kristy's new cookbook, But I Could Never Go Vegan!. I have been a long-time reader of her blog, where Kristy creates the creative recipes and her husband, Chris Turner, takes the most gorgeous photos. (You totally know he gets the credit for the top photo).
Kristy's book is a cute foray into vegan cuisine. She aims to convince you that will not be lacking anything while munching vegan-style. Each chapter was created with recipes targetted to bust vegan myths: All Those Special Ingredients are Way More Expensive; I Could Never Give Up Cheese!; Where Would I Get My Protein?; Tofu Doesn't Taste Like Anything; Vegan Cooking is Too Hard; Where's the Beef?; Just Thinking about Salad Makes Me Yawn; What About Brunch?; Fake "Foods" Freak Me Out; It's All Rabbit Food; Not Soup Again!; I'd Miss Pizza; Can't I Be Pescatarian Instead?; My Friends Won't Want to Come Over for Dinner; No Way. I'm Italian (or Southern/German/Mexican/French); But I Hate (Insert Vegetable Here); I Don't Want to be Left Out at Potlucks and Family Get-Togethers; You Can't Bake Without Butter Or Eggs; Wait, Is Chocolate Vegan?; But I Scream for Ice Cream.
Yeah, she definitely covers her bases! Her recipes span the simple and easy (see below) but also mostly on the elaborate side: Potato Sauerkraut Soup with Sausage Crumbles, Buffalo Cauliflower Calzones with Cashew Blue Cheese, Pretzel Dumplings with Mushroom-Sauerkraut Gravy; Salisbury Seitan Phyllo Pouches with Rosemary Mashed Potatoes. I may be wrong but I only recognize a few recipes from her blog: Spinach Artichoke Soup, Chickpea Sloppy Joes and Jackfruit Tuna Salad Sandwich. There may be others, but those were the ones I recognized and previously bookmarked. These sprouts and sweets are similar (and likely improved) from her Cheesy Maple Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Broccoli dish. I am certainly looking forward to cooking through these recipes. One can not help but to be inspired by the photography and recipes.

No-Bake Date Squares & Giveaway for 100 Best Juices, Smoothies and Healthy Snacks
Date squares have a long tradition in our family. I shared our recipe, modified slightly as a Cranberry-Date Square, shortly after I began blogging. (One of my first missions was to preserve our favourite family recipes). Even to this day, my brother still requests this. Just last month, when I heard he was hoarding the date squares, I thought out loud to my mom: "Wait, that should be really easy to veganize. No, really."
Sure enough, while reading through Emily's latest cookbook, 100 Best Juices, Smoothies and Healthy Snacks, I just knew I had to try out her no-bake date squares. With only 5 ingredients, and no oven, she has recreated a fabulous spin on the classic date squares. Rolled oats and buttery pecans substitute for the traditional butter and white flour. Dates sweeten and help towards the architecture of the snack with a touch of coconut oil adding in for texture and stability. I was impressed that the date layer was so smooth and luscious. I think I may try adding in a touch of lemon juice next time (like our original recipe) to see if that helps to balance the sweetness. While not traditional, I also wonder whether a touch of cinnamon would work nicely. In any case, Emily's rendition was spot on and encourage you to try it out.
Her "Dare to Date Squares" comes from her cookbook which also has 99 other recipes for juices, smoothies, mylks and snacks (which she calls energy bars & healthy snacks). It, however, is not a raw cookbook although it is entirely vegan. As an example, she includes creative savoury soups with cooked vegetables as spicy carrot smoothie with bell peppers and creamy onion and potato smoothie. It would be best to have a juicer for the juice section although the smoothies simply require a blender. Personally, I was drawn to her snack chapter, which I wish was a bit longer. Considering her success of her first dessert cookbook (I shared her tahini cups with a sweet coffee-infused filling previously), I can see how she may not have wanted to pursue that direction in as much detail. Her photos are gorgeous (see top photo) and her easy-going nature encourages you to try new recipes. My only gripe were some missing details, like the size of pan to use in a recipe. However, most recipes are so simple you just need the ingredient list.

That darned Abbey. The day before yesterday she rolled on a dead gopher and everyone complained of the terrible smell. I had told them before if I washed it off she'd just do it again but gave her a washing anyway. Sure enough she found the same rotting carcass and did it again yesterday. It was worse this time as the thing must have exploded when she rolled on it again. I think I'll keep her off the gopher trails for a while until the thing drys up. I'll take her on the downtown route where I keep her leashed and no chance of finding a rotting gopher.
Yesterday I said I'd post some photo's of prairie weeds in full bloom.

Hi Tony.Dogs will be dogs.LOL |
Awwww you washed off Abby's perfume and she was feeling like such a pretty dog while wearing it. |
Good morning Tony. Oh my allergies are flaring up just looking at your pics...LOL Ragweed season is upon us and all this dry weather made it worse this year. Aerius is a lady's best friend. Achhhhhh choooooo!!!! Overcast and a nice little breeze out, hopefully it won't rain this morning so I can get out and cut the front lawn. If not, oh well, we can always try again another day. Take care dear one. Love your pics and as far as smelly dogs, now you know why I prefer cats...LOL |
Dogs sure do like that smelly stuff, Tony! We used to have a dog that was fond of fresh cowpies! Fortunately, it wasn't an inside dog, but we had to bathe it anyway because it liked to rub up on us! :) Good luck; maybe in a few days the buzzards will have taken care of it! |

As an Occupy Wall Street activist goes to trial on charges of assaulting a police officer, author and lawyer Chase Madar asks what the rights to freedom of assembly, freedom of the press and freedom from warrantless search are worth in the United States today.

Independent journalist Kenneth Lipp attended a law enforcement conference in Philadelphia on Monday in which he discovered that soon authorities may have control over what's posted on social media sites. This includes allowing people to plan demonstrations using sites such as Facebook.

Things like freedom of the press and freedom of speech, which seemed like a good idea in 1789, now seem really dangerous to us and we've started to agree with King George III about the undesirability of those liberties. Our forebears minded the torture and cruel and unusual punishments imposed by the king. But we have gone back to torturing people.

Three Chinese activists agitating for officials to make public the value of their wealth and assets will be put on trial in a "co-ordinated crackdown" that makes the limitations of an "anti-corruption push by the new government" plain, according to a Reuters report in The Guardian.

DS9 revamp
So I've been spending alot of time in DS9 since this new release as its the best place to start STF's from. A thought occured to me. When they polished up the interior of DS9, why didn't they add an infirmary? Why stick the doctor where the exchange is? This seems like a pretty big oversight. They added a room for D'vak and the STF stuff, why not do the same for an Infirmary? This is one of those very (and I mean very) minor details that makes a huge difference with attention to detail.
They didn't add any NPC's to the promenade either , so it still looks like it's the middle of the night in an air port instead of a busy midway station ... . :(
ESD has officers patrolling the corridors , groups of NPC's chatting . Even K-7 and the other stations look "busy" . DS9 ... not so much . Aaaand they still have that hail-to-dock from that Bajoran in that fugly Fed uniform . Hello Cryptic .... , you do have Bajoran uniforms now ... , not to mention some prettier fed uniforms ... . :) Aaaand if I really want to be petty , then I'll note that the station is still missing the antenna rods that were on the top of their control tower (OPS) . :p |
The DS9 "revamp" is a huge disappointment (we should probably be use to that by now). They have been talking about the DS9 revamp for months now and all they did was change the lighting, some textures and add some minor objects. Sure, Ops looks better and the Commanders office is a nice big empty room, but other than that...
It's still ridiculously huge, inside and out. The viewer in Ops shows a frozen image of the wormhole. That ugly brown nebula still surrounds the station. You still beam onto the Promenade not Ops. They took away the shutters that separate Quarks from the Promenade, but replaced them with a solid wall. It's still empty, and devoid of life, most of the NPC's that are supposed to be sitting in chairs or benches stand on them instead. And so many other things, that just make it look unpleasant. After those child drawn signs on ESD, and so many new graphical glitches and bugs on Qo'nos it's almost as if Cryptic is trying to make the social areas look bad. Oh yeah we still have clones of three of our Bridge Officers sitting on our bridges. |
I like the adjustments made to the station, especially Ops, but I would like to see some updates made (which others have already mentioned):
1) Add an Infirmary and move the Doctor there. 2) Add a security office with a holding cell 3) Add a space/ground dilithium vendor. (I'm shocked that they don't have one, given the push for the new economy.) 4) Add a habitat ring deck that you can wander around. |
Would be cool if they added a "Beam to Ship" action button/dialog bubble to the Transporter Pad in Ops. (just like they have at Memory Alpha, etc)
'Course this would be nice for all Transporter Pads in STO (Earth Space Dock an so forth). And yes I know I can press my Com badge anywhere, but the pads seem non-functional without this option - and besides the coding is already done - just copy and paste! :D |

Gloria Molina: L.A.'s 'first Latina'
| Aug 29, 2009
Gloria Molina's life has been one of contradictions: the famous feminist politician from East L.A., the career policymaker/politician who still feels like an outsider. She can claim many "firsts," a lot of admirers and a lot of political foes. The first...

Best Family Practice In Town by Best Practice - 05/16/2013
Alliance Urgent Care and Family Practice is without a doubt the best medical practice in Colorado springs if not in all of Colorado! Dr. Carroll and his staff go out of their way to make treating their patients as enjoyable an experience as possible. You are always treated with complete dignity and hospitality. They truly listen and try to comfort their patients. They take the time needed to get as full a picture of your needs as is possible. I've had a great many medical issues in my life and have been treated by an army of doctors and their staff, but I have never been treated as well anywhere else!
My Testimonial by Fred - 01/02/2012
I have known Dr. Carroll for many years, since we were both active duty Air Force. He & his staff are fantastic. They are a caring & knowledgeable group of people. A few years ago I went in for an urgent issue & Dr. Carroll was right on it. He sent me to get a blood draw on an STAT request. As soon as he got the results he phoned my wife & told her to get me to the ER ASAP. I was going into renal failure plus I had pneumonia. The ER staff told my wife I was in critical condition & werenât sure I was going to live, that is how bad I was. Were it not for his quick thinking & medical know how I probably would have died. While I was in ICU he kept in contact with the staff to keep up to date on my condition. His office even sent a get well card. He saved my life & will always have my thanks. I would not switch docs for anything. He is by far the best doctor I have ever known, & I have known a lot of them. I trust him & his staff with my life. He has my everlasting gratitude
Outstanding Family Practice by Mike Moon - 04/14/2011
The staff and doctors are very personable and take the necessary time needed without making you feel rushed or unimportant! This is by far the best practice I've had the pleasure of being a patient at (and I've moved around a lot and have had my fair share)! Over the past 2 years I've been in with each of the providers - Fantastic all around! Thank you Alliance Family Practice!!
Impressive!! by Mackenzie - 03/29/2011
Impressive! I just moved to Colorado Springs, and I was a little skeptical about trying out a Urgent Care clinic - heard stories of the other ones in town and decided to go to this one. Boy was I wrong! I didn't wait long at all, and the doctor took her time with me and was very thorough with blood and urine tests. Very professional and knew their stuff. I felt that all the staff was friendly, efficient, and caring. Thank You.
WONDERFUL - ALWAYS!! by Soccer Mom Parm - 03/11/2011
I have walked in without an appointment 5 times over the past few years. Each time - a WONDERFUL place!! Always greeted warmly by the staff. Everything is electronic. Quick, easy, in, out. Everything we need is here. We even get a toy. Dr. Carroll is amazing. Loving, caring. My whole family comes here. Thank you Alliance.
Not this place by JW - 11/18/2010
I have been here twice and both times were bad. The first time, I had to wait for 1.5 hours to be seen, and there was nobody else in the waiting room. I saw no other patients in there either, and the staff didn't appear busy. I thought that was a one time deal, so I went again. The second time was worse. Again, no patients around, everything was pretty quiet. They got me out of the waiting room fast. and put me in a visit room. There I waited for over two hours. I stepped out of the room and saw the male nurse shooting the bull with the doc in their break room. I asked where the bathroom was, and the doctor said something like, "oh, I was just about to come in. Can you hold it?". I'll never go back here. I'm a patient guy, but the staff seemed like a bunch of 20 somethings with no boss around. btw....both times I went, It would have been a 5 minute procedure....easy stuff.
This urgent care rocks!! by J - 03/16/2010
This is by far the BEST urgent care that I have even been too!!! The staff is so friendly and caring. And to top it off they are efficient, I have never had a long wait here.
great by EGC - 12/29/2009

Landersheim is a commune in the Bas-Rhin department in Alsace in north-eastern France.
Surrounding communes are Saessolsheim and Rohr to the north-west, Willgottheim in the south-east, Zeinheim and Westhouse-Marmoutier to the south-west with Maennolsheim and Friedolsheim in the north-west.
Outside the village, much of the commune is devoted to arable agriculture. The commune contains some important employers as a result of which it employs far more people than the number of its residents: there is significant industrial and service sector employment.
The commune hosts the French headquarters of Adidas which employs four hundred people, as well as the Kochersberg hotel complex, a travel agency and an agricultural development business. Nevertheless, a fifth of Landersheim's own population still live from agriculture, with the production of Goat's cheese a speciality.
The name[edit]
Landersheim gets a mention in the Property schedule of Mauersmünster Abbey ("Besitzverzeichnis der Abtei Mauersmünster") which was produced in the early twelfth century. Here it is named as Lantheresheim ("Lanther's homestead"). In the fourteenth century it turns up as "Lantersen" which becomes "Landersche" in popular parlance. The "Landersheim" spelling first appears in the Middle Ages among the imperial nobility ("Reichsritterschaft") of lower Alsace.
Ownership and religion[edit]
In 1595 half of the locality was in the possession of the lords of Mittelhausen, which continued until their line came to an end in 1634. They introduced the reformation to the village which remained attached to the Protestant parish of Zehnacker until 1688. The other half of the locality was held by the Holzapfel family in common with the lords of Landsberg, and they also inherited the Mittelhausen share in 1634. They reintroduced the Catholic religion in 1688. A few years later, at the end of the seventeenth century, a large bourgeois family from Strasbourg and Colmar named Weinemer purchased three quarters of the village: the residual quarter remained with the Holzapfels. This ownership structure endured until 1789.
