Salad, salad and more salads!

We LOVE our salads! Salad for lunch, dinner, “Salad for Breakfast!”

One of the main staples of my new “cancer-killer” diet is salads. Lots of them! (I can hear you groaning now at the thought of it) Yeah, me too. As you might have guessed, salad is not my favorite food. It used to be on my list of things to order before dinner but that is when I could load it up with blue cheese dressing and savory croutons. Those days are gone but I’ve learned to embrace the new and to help get me through I’ve repeated to myself every time I eat something I don’t like, “This is way better than chemo! Here’s to being alive and thriving!”

Here are some of the salads I’ve made over the past 7 months. This gives you an example of what I put on them. I’ve also started adding chicken recently. Made some last night in my new George Foreman. Sprinkled it with rosemary…

Suffer the little children. . .
Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” (NIV)
(Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come to me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven. KJV)
Matthew 19:14

“Children must be taught how to think, not what to think.”
― Margaret Mead

I cannot allow one more day to pass without noting the terrible barbarism taking place in Nigeria.
With the abduction of the nearly 300 girls, taken from school–the place they had gone, thinking they would be safe in order to take their end of term final exams—my heart cries out within me.
I cry out as a mother who’s…

Keeping the World in Your Kitchen

Life Aboard the Traveling Circus

I’ve never been a foodie. I can’t tell you the difference between cooking with vegetable oil or olive oil, I rarely use measuring cups, and I’m still not sure how much pasta to throw in the pot for two people. However, I can tell you that nobody appreciates a gourmet meal quite like a kid who grew up on TV dinners.

When I was little and I would go to the grocery store with my mother, it seemed normal to just point out what microwave meals I wanted for the week. When I would eat them at the end of a long day, I would always feel empty, a little gross, and always hungry, hungry for something with a taste; with flavor.

Getting invited to other people’s homes for dinner was always a real treat, which was why I made it a point to get in…

LENA SHAREEF

Last Monday, my friend Olivia and I decided to launch this idea called #GIRLWITHABOOK. At the time we were venting to each other about how horrified and utterly disgusted we were by the Taliban’s sick attempt at killing Malala Yousafzai on her school bus, and we wanted to do something about it. We wanted to do something for Malala, and at the same time stick it to the Taliban. So Olivia says to me “Let’s get people to post pictures of themselves with books! A favorite book, a random book, a school book, you name it. And we’ll post it on facebook, twitter, etc. to show Malala our support.” My reaction: THIS IS AWESOME.

The Taliban showed what they are most afraid: A GIRL WITH A BOOK.

So that’s exactly what we did. We created a Facebook page, Pinterest board, Twitter account and a tumblr. It sounds…
