Give-Aways


I have been wanting to join for months now. This is the birthday gift I requested from my husband. I can't wait to select my software title that comes with joining and am hoping to get more organizing tips from the weekly letters.

All Things Vegetarian
by Patty Liston and Alice Osborne


We both have family members who are vegetarians. We are therefore, always looking for new recipes that we can use and share with others. So, whether you are a vegetarian or not, these recipes are good, and good for you.


Meat Free Sandwiches
From Marygrace Stergakos

1.Equal parts miso and tahini, cucumber rounds, avocado slices, and clover sprouts

3. Baked tofu, pesto, and romaine lettuce
4. Asian-style salad sandwich: Shredded red and green cabbage tossed with peanut dressing. Add baked, sliced tofu for extra staying power.
5. Sliced apple and almond butter with a sprinkle of cinnamon
