And when you feel sad, mad, fustrated, or just want to break down and cry, run.
And when you get tired of running run more.
And when you feel like you cant go anymore keep going.
And when you literally feel like your legs are going to fall off, keep going
Until they do
:D.
Garbanzo Burger & Fennel Radicchio Slaw
I made this garbanzo burger and fennel slaw for lunch yesterday. If you’ve never made homemade veggie burgers, it’s really easy and they taste so much better than the ones you buy at the store. You can make them with any combo of beans, grains & veggies and it’s fun to experiment. I always add an egg so they don’t crumble apart, but if you’re vegan you can use some oatmeal as a binder.
Cook 1/2 cup brown rice and 1 chopped carrot in some veggie stock or water. Chop 1 green onion and a couple tablespoons fresh parsley. Rinse and drain a can of garbanzo beans. Put the garbanzo beans in a food processor and process till just crumbly, and still chunky. Add the rice & cooked carrot, (or shredded fresh carrot), 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs, chopped parsley, 1 smashed garlic clove, chopped green onion, a pinch of cumin, a dash of smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Process to combine, but it should still be crumbly.
Put the mixture in a bowl and mix in one egg with a fork. Form into 4 or 5 patties and cook in a frying pan in a little olive oil spray until cooked through, about 2- 3 minutes per side. Add a slice of cheese at the end and cover till it melts. Serve on a toasted bagel.
For fennel slaw: wash and chop fennel, radicchio, celery, green onion, purple cabbage and whatever other crunchy veggies you have on hand. Dress with a mixture of 1/2 cup plain yogurt, 2 tblsp mayo, the juice of 1/2 lemon, 1/4 tsp celery saltand pepper, 2 tblsp fresh chopped parsley, a sprinkle of cayenne to taste & 1/2 tsp sugar. Yum!!

Is a person who stays on a sinking ship trying to save every last soul, even those who don’t wish to be saved strong and courageous or simply weak, unable to face facts?
You cannot be first
But on one knee, I will ask
Will you be my last?

I once watched a lesson on sexuality with some friends of mine for a study. The speaker compared our sex lives to a piece of duct tape. As it was passed around, the tape picked up lint and debris from every surface it was expose to until it was no longer sticky.
Our sex lives are similar. No…
