                                                 Happy Memorial Day Weekend! 
                                                       
Long weekends such as Memorial Day means cookouts, spending time with family and friends, and the anticipation that summer is almost here!  How will you be spending your memorial day weekend?  We're looking forward to cooking some good BBQ and relaxing on the patio with an iced cold beverage (margarita for me)!

 I wanted to share one of my favorite dishes that I will be preparing this weekend for my Memorial Day cookout!  If you're looking for something delicious, and at the same time isn't time consuming try making Zesty Italian Pasta Salad.  It's simple to make and can feed a large group of your hungry friends and family.

 This has to be one of my favorite summer salads (so yummy)! You can make it with plain noodles or with tri-colored noodles; pretty bow pasta. I prefer colored noodles because they add a little more color to the dish. You can make this salad with all your favorite veggies! If there is one you don't like; you can leave it out it's up to you. Some like to add cheese or pepperoni but I prefer just veggies. So whatever your preference is, go crazy!

Ingredients                          

  • I pkg colored noodles1-2 medium tomatoes
  • 1 small red onion
  • 1/2 cup green pepper
  • 1/2 cup yellow pepper
  • 1/2 cup red pepper

Partake of the beautiful Lotus to inspire your mind. It sedates and seduces..

By
Lotus - Its God's favorite flower...Its mysticism may also be linked to the  mild narcotic or sedative effects   from flowers that are eaten, smoked or steeped in wine and drank. Also called the world's most beautiful flower, the lotus is the most sacred, and it seems there never was a time when man did not adore it.....Of all the myriad buds and blooms, the most revered and esteemed--by God and man--is the magnificent lotus in the sub continent and all across China and Japan. According to Buddhism and Hinduism, within each human inhabiting the earth is the spirit of the sacred lotus. It represents eternity, purity and divinity and is widely used as a symbol of life, fertility, ever-renewing youth and to describe feminine beauty, especially the eyes. One of the most common metaphysical analogies compares the lotus' perennial rise to faultless beauty from a miry environment to the evolution of man's consciousness--from instinctive impulses to spiritual liberation.

Mother Earth, Mother Nature, We the Children & Easter

By
Did you know the first Greek God was actually a Goddess?. he is Gaia, or Mother Earth, who created herself out of primordial chaos. From her fertile womb all life sprang, and unto Mother Earth all living things must return after their allotted span of life is over.  Gaia, as Mother Nature, personifies the entire ecosystem of Planet Earth.  Mother Nature is always working to achieve and maintain harmony, wholeness and balance within the environment. Mother Nature heals, nurtures and supports all life on this planet, and ultimately all life and health depend on Her. In time, Nature heals all ills. The way of Mother Gaia is the passive, feminine, Yin way of healing. All we need to do to regain our health is to return to the bosom of Mother Nature and live in accordance with Her laws. The Gaia archetype underlies all notions of the Nature Cure. Mother Nature is a healing goddess for the ancients whose glory was celebrated each spring, long before organized religion came into play.
