Here’s a recipe inspired by one of my favorite movies, “My Blue Heaven”. In the movie, the manager of the supermarket asks Vinnie Antonelli (Steve Martin) if he found everything he wanted:
Vinnie: Arugula. I haven’t had arugula in six weeks.
Manager: What’s that?
Vinnie (with his mafia/gangster accent): It’s a ve-get-able.
Oh yes, arugula is a [...]
Ludacris is going bling green. Tommy Lee too. This is a pretty funny commercial:
This is an ad from Planet Green, the new eco-conscious television station launched in June by Discovery Communications. Ludacris and Tommy Lee are starring in the go-green reality show, “Battleground Earth”… should be interesting… As for other viewing options, the channel runs [...]
A few posts ago, we talked about cell phones and cancer. It’s interesting that cell phones have attracted so much attention as a potential carcinogen while beauty products have been largely ignored. Cell phones might be pinned to your head a few hours per day, but cosmetics (lotion, shampoo. soap, aftershave, foundation, lipstick, deodorant, [...]
I received many emails regarding the “Future of Food” post asking for more info about Monsanto. First off, Monsanto isn’t some far-off business that only makes products for farmers. Do you use Roundup? If so, you’re a direct consumer of Monsanto. Do you eat food? Then you’re probably consuming Monsanto. Yup, this company is definitely present in each [...]
Ah, Sunday. Here is my favorite “thing” for the week…
Laloo’s Goat’s Milk Ice Cream. I know, it might sound a bit frightening, but let me assure you, it’s amazing. I am mainly a vegan, so there are not very many animal products that I can recommend. But, holy goat, I would bathe in this [...]
We’ve recently come to the realization that practically anything in excess can cause or progress the development of cancer. Mobile communication devices have received special attention because these devices are plastered to millions of ears on a daily basis. After soaking in the research for a bit, my brain hurts after reading [...]
Oh goodness, time has really gotten away from me this week. My sleep log looks absolutely horrible (see “Pillow Gossip” post)…
Today’s post will be on cell phone use and cancer. But, because of my squinting eyes and comical attempts at putting together sensible sentences, I’m going to have to give you the real post this [...]
This film needs no words. It is the beautiful work of Gregory Colbert. You can visit his website to view a bit of his amazing portfolio. He has truly captured the dynamic relationship we hold with all living creatures. This film is entitled, “Ashes and Snow- Feather to Fire”. It is narrated by Laurence Fishburne (English), [...]
“We are not that much different in fact to many other forms of animal life; and it is because of subtle human conditioning- not the actual facts- that we are raised to believe there is a wide gap between what is human and what is animal.” -Gareth Patterson, Last of the Free (1994)
I imagine [...]
The National Sleep Foundation estimates that around 75% of Americans are sleep deprived (you can visit their site for more stats and helpful info). I am looking at my clock right now… 2:01 AM. My eyes feel heavy and I’m dreading the thought of my alarm in the morning. I’m realizing that I’m a definite contributor to [...]
