A Mary T. Hoffman Commentary from All-Creatures.org

 

"Joyful Curmudgeon" An oxymoron?
No! I see all the beauty of God's creation and I'm joyful.  At the same time, I see all the suffering and corruption going on in the world, and feel called to help expose and end it so that we may have true peace and compassion.

Artichokes – 10 June 2008
By Mary T. Hoffman

My husband Frank and I bought artichokes from the fresh produce department of a supermarket today. We love to eat artichokes the way Frank cooks them (I think he learned this recipe from his Mom)! They are really a fun food; so guess what we had with our large tossed salads today? Artichokes! For details (including photos) on how we prepare artichokes, please visit:

The fresh tossed salad, that I made early this morning before going shopping, consisted of the following veggies cut in bite-size pieces: romaine lettuce, celery, broccoli, cucumbers, Vidalia onions, carrots, chicory, and cabbage. Today we topped our salads with chickpeas (cooked yesterday and refrigerated) and balsamic vinegar.
