There's a virtual party taking place this evening in honor of C. Beth's birthday and I've decided to bring baked brussels sprouts to the party. You take about one pound of brussels sprouts, clean them and then place them evenly on a baking sheet coated in bacon fat. Stick these wonderful green delights in the oven on 400 degrees and bake until they are nice and tender and the leaves begin to scorch just a little.
What a wonderful veggie dish to bring to the party. I hope you all enjoy, a new twist on one of the blandest vegetables out there.

Today's One-Minute Writer Post:
Oh to have the youthful exuberance of a child again. Children have such vivid imaginations and even today they will hold conversations with "imaginary" friends. They see people as people and don't see color lines. Why if you put a group of children in a room and give them a few toys they will play and interact and make their new "best friend" in an inkling. If only we were all so open and free spirited in our beliefs, this world would be a much better place.

What's Missing in your life
The daily joys of life are missing in my life and I am desperately trying to find them. Those are the days when you awaken to sun streaming into the windows and the cares in your life are minimal. It also that point at which you say farewell to cares and just go with the flow.
Tomorrow I will have a carefree day!

One Minute Writer
Irony abounds in life and today is not different. The one-minute writer prompt for today is "What is the last thing that made you cry?" Below is my response, which carries over to my first post of the day.
Today I shed tears for the first time in 2009. These tears were for the tragic and senseless death of 6-month-old Ania Duncan. I never had the pleasure of meeting Ania, but from the bright, brown eyes that stared out at me I’m sure I would have loved to have known her. Today the world is a little darker and my heart aches for a better tomorrow and help for her troubled parents.~Hug a child today!
