Breakfast yesterday, yes ... my Egg-Tastic eggs with a little parsley, some Mrs. Dash seasoning, and Parmesan cheese added after cooking is done to just sit on top and melt. Along with that a chicken thigh with gravy and a pear off my tree.

If you bought an Egg-Tastic, like so many of you have after my love affair with the egg cooker, and it didn't come with the two pages of recipes, let me know and I'll either mail them to you or email them and you can print them out.  Just let me know.

Yesterday was shopping errand day. A stop at Brian's office to make a donation. Sami's school, Highland Elementary (BTW whose PTA President is Jen!) is having a jog-a-thon to raise money for an AC system. Then to Safeway for groceries. The pharmacy for a prescription, and ACE to inquire when the deer blocks will be back in stock. Home to put everything away.  Dinner was the Taqueria Mexico leftovers.

The sunset was beautiful!

.... and my Dude watching it too:

 

All I know. Nuff said. Happy TBT. Ciao.

World Vegetarian Day

World Vegetarian Day encourages us all to eat our vegetables and fruits. Countless studies have proven that a diet filled with fruits and vegetables is good for our health. Vegetarians, have taken this path either for their health, or from a conviction that they should not eat, and therefore, kill animals.

A vegetarian, by definition, eats no meat. That includes fish and other forms of seafood. Bottom line is, a vegetarian eats no animal. Their diet consists of plants....fruits and vegetables. They are ethically and morally opposed to killing animals for food.  They are also against poor treatment of animals at farms and slaughterhouses.

There are plenty of groups and organizations that support the vegetarian effort. If you are considering becoming a vegetarian, a quick web search, or a look up in your local phone directory should produce a group near you. While you are online, check out the wide range of sites offering vegetarian recipes.  

This day is used to promote awareness of the issues, and encourages others to become vegetarians. Seeing as fruits and vegetables are very healthy for you, World Vegetarian Day is a good day to try a vegetarian diet. You might just be surprised at how good it tastes, too.

Here are 25 vegetarian recipes from one of my favs, Cooking Light (believe it or not, that is a vegetable meatloaf!)
