Kidney recipient meets donor's family, thanks them for second chance at life
Submitted: 08/10/2014
Karolina Buczek
- Organ donors give many people a second chance at life. A Merrill teen saved many lives after he died in a car accident in 2009.
Jordan Buehler's organs were given to people who were on the organ waiting list for a long time. Matthew Meyer is one of them.
"I was near death, two steps from death's doorway," said Matt Meyer. "Now, I have a brand new life."
Meyer will never forget the amazing gift Buehler gave him: the gift of life.
"I was born with only one kidney and it was golf ball sized. The doctors always knew it was going to fail. They just didn't know when," explained Meyer. "Then, I hit puberty and started growing like crazy. I grew like five inches. Eventually, my kidney just couldn't keep up anymore so I started kidney failure."
Matt's family members tried to give him one of their kidneys. But, doctors couldn't find a good match.
"I rejected my entire family for a new kidney," said Meyer.
Then, he started getting very sick.
"Dialysis stopped working for me. I started retaining all the water. I was carrying around 40 extra pounds of water weight," explained Meyer.
Matt was put on the organ waiting list in June 2009.
It was up to a stranger to save his life. Jordan Buehler did just that.
Jordan died in a car accident in November of 2009. His parents donated his organs after they found his organ donor sticker on his driver's license.
"Parts of him can live on and he can do good for other people, whether he knows it or not," explained Jordan's parents, Bryan and Joleen Buehler.
Doctors decided to give Jordan's kidney to Matt.
"I got a call at 11:45 at night on the 25th of November saying they had a kidney in Madison, Wisconsin. Within 15 minutes, we were on the road, driving up," said Meyer.
The moment was bittersweet for the Meyer family.
"[I thought] oh my gosh, he's finally going to get better. Oh my gosh, something happened to somebody. They told us there was an auto accident in Northern Wisconsin," explained Matt's parents, Karen and Jim Meyer.
In the operating room, doctors were hopeful that Jordan's kidney would save Matt's life.
"They told me the kidney started working right then and there. Even before they sewed me back up," said Meyer.
Matt quickly got better, but he wanted to know more about the person who saved his life.
"I was very curious. I wanted to see who it was and what he was like. But I couldn't contact the family because I thought it was too soon," said Meyer.
Five years later, Matt reached out to the Buehler family.
"It's my five-year anniversary and I wanted to meet the family. I wanted to see who brought me new life," said Meyer.
In between tears and smiles, Matt showed the Buehler family the tattoo he got in Jordan's memory.
"He's shocked us with his tattoo on his arm. It was very nice for him to do that. It shows us how appreciative he is for a second chance at life," explained Jordan's father, Bryan.
The Meyer family got the chance to show how grateful they are for Jordan's gift.
"Jordan will always be a part of our family. In March, we wish him happy birthday and we thank him every thanksgiving and pray for the family," said Matt's parents.
The families will forever share a special bond.
To become an organ donor, all you have to do is select the donor option when you apply for a license or ID card. You can also apply online. The link is attached below.

Gun deer hunt brings business to the Northwoods, some worry new rules could affect tourism
Submitted: 10/22/2014
Play Video
- Some Northwoods businesses worry that new deer hunt regulations could hurt tourism.
The gun deer hunt brings traffic to area businesses after the summer is over.
But new rules could keep people from traveling up north.
"Several guests have called and some have cancelled because they say that there's not going to be any doe tags being issued in this area," says Hiawatha Lodge owner Scott Frickson.
You can't get an antlerless deer tag in Wisconsin north of Marathon County.
That could lead to less hunting tourism in the Northwoods.

Dumbing down, Minister? Michael Gove gets his educational facts from marketing surveys for Premier Inn and UKTV Gold
Education Secretary's attack on lack of pupils' knowledge not based on any academic research
Jonathan Brown
Monday 13 May 2013
They may provide comfortable accommodation at a reasonable price and broadcast some of the finest repeats on British television but few would consider either Premier Inn or UKTV Gold to be organisations on the cutting edge of educational research. Few that is except Education Secretary Michael Gove.
A Freedom of Information (FoI) request by a retired teacher has left Mr Gove facing a torrent of criticism after it was revealed that he cited PR surveys commissioned by the two companies as evidence of British teenagers' alleged ignorance of key historical figures and events.
In an article in the Mail on Sunday in March headlined "why I refuse to surrender to militant Marxist teachers hell-bent on destroying our schools" Mr Gove railed against the "enemies of promise" undermining the prospects of young people.
The minister, whose new plans for a fact-based history curriculum have outraged some teachers, wrote: "Survey after survey has revealed disturbing historical ignorance, with one teenager in five believing Winston Churchill was a fictional character while 58 per cent think Sherlock Holmes was real."
But Janet Downs, a member of the Local Schools Network, asked his department to reveal the evidence for the minister's claim. It however could only identify the 2008 survey commissioned by UK TV Gold whose 3,000-strong sample included all age groups – not just teenagers.
Undeterred, the grandmother from Lincolnshire again asked civil servants to justify the assertion that "survey after survey" rather than a single source proved the point.
In its next reply, the Department for Education, which has previously been criticised for failing to respond to FoIs, cited a survey by Tory peer Lord Ashcroft which revealed gaps in secondary age pupils' knowledge of the Second World War.
Yet it also emerged that Mr Gove had cribbed from a press-released survey carried on newspaper websites produced by hotel chain Premier Inn which claimed teenagers thought Sir Bruce Forsyth was a former British Prime Minister and Delia Smith was married to Henry VIII.
The three other sources used to support Mr Gove's claims included a pamphlet by think tank Politeia, an article in London Mum's Magazine and an article in the Daily Telegraph detailing a poll carried out by Sea Cadets.
Writing on her blog Mrs Downs, who has previously caught Mr Gove out on a number of claims including that Asian students worked harder than British pupils, said: "Gove says he is in favour of 'evidence-based' policies. However, it's unclear what value there is in 'evidence' which includes surveys of dubious reliability – unless, of course, they're chosen simply because they support Gove's point of view."
Mrs Downs, who taught English and business studies for 20 years in Lincolnshire, said she had first become "riled" with inaccurate comments made by Mr Gove in 2010.
"I think he has got an agenda to play down state education. It is demoralising to pupils and teachers.
"It shows a bit of disrespect for the public and the readers and the right wing press pick it up and run with it," she told The Independent.
Press releases cited by Gove
Premier Inn
"Teenagers believe Delia Smith, Jerry Hall and Camilla Duchess of Cornwall were among Henry VIII's wives, research has revealed... Other clangers included thinking telly builder Nick Knowles built the pyramids and believing that William Shakespeare was the chairman of the BBC."
Sea Cadets
"One in 20 children believe the Spanish Armada is a tapas-style cuisine, not the fleet of ships that sailed against the English. And one in six thought Raleigh was the brains behind the Chopper, not the adventurer responsible for bringing tobacco and potato back to our shores."
Lord Ashcroft
"Children were shown pictures of various current and historical figures. All but a tiny handful recognised the Queen (and a stunning 97 per cent recognised Jedward). More than nine out of 10 identified Churchill the insurance dog – half as many again as correctly named Sir Winston Churchill (62 per cent)."
UKTV Gold
"Shame-faced Brits are increasingly confusing fact and fiction when it comes to historical knowledge... most people believe that fictional figures such as King Arthur, Sherlock Holmes and Eleanor Rigby really existed."
More 'facts' debunked by Mrs Downs
Far Eastern education
In Far Eastern countries "school days are longer, school holidays are shorter." Not according to OECD data.
Free schools
Department for Education claims Free schools are over-subscribed. In fact many "oversubscribed" free schools have free places.
Illiterate school leavers
Are 20% of school leavers functionally illiterate? Not according to ONS definitions.

Open Up The Five-Hole
12/07/07 at 05:52 PM ET | Comments (0)
from The Good, The Bad and The Duthie,
Turco's job is to keep pucks out. But he also cares deeply about the game, and believes the league needs more pucks going in. Unlike many keepers who shriek in terror at the thought of more equipment shrinkage, Turco is open to the idea…As long as it is in the right places. And for him, that means those darn kneepads and flaps.
"The problem is a lot of the guys wear a pad under their socks, and then another one over their socks. So when they go down, they are several inches higher. Then you have these flaps which are like putting a board in front of the five-hole."
He told the NHL's Competition Committee in the summer that all this extra knee "protection" was excessive. Nothing came of it.

Canucks Issue Public Statement
Blog: KK Hockey By Alanah McGinley
12/07/07 at 05:34 PM ET | Comments (0)
From TSN,
Throughout this matter, the Canucks and their counsel have refrained from public comment, preferring to have this matter dealt with in the courts. The Canucks organization feels compelled at this time to respond to some of the inaccuracies in the media stories relating to court documents and the allegations made in the proposed Claim.
- Contrary to impressions made by some reports these allegations are not yet formally before a court and will require a court order before they are permitted to be made. The Ontario Superior Court will be considering whether to allow these amendments on January 21, 2008.
- We believe that many of the proposed allegations now being advanced on behalf of Mr. Moore against the Vancouver Canucks are inaccurate or speculative. The Vancouver Canucks believe they are intended to inflame the public and create further media interest in the case.

Can Kovalchuk Score 70?
Blog: KK Hockey By Alanah McGinley
12/07/07 at 04:50 PM ET | Comments (0)
From Craig Custance at Thrashers Blog,
As we sit here right now, Ilya Kovalchuk is on pace for 70 goals. It's been quite awhile since that's been done (since 92-93 season) but do you think he can do it? I asked around the Thrashers lockerroom this morning, if players thought it was going to happen. My new favorite corner is the Eric Boulton - Eric Perrin and Chris Thorburn corner of the room, so I presented it to them. I asked Perrin, and Boulton piped in, saying basically 'good luck answering that. If you say yes you jinx him, if you say no, you're saying no.' So Perrin thought about it a moment and said "If anybody can do it, it's Kovy." Thorburn refused to talk about it altogether. So what would you put the odds at — How about this, I'll set the over/under at 64 goals. You going over or under?

Toivonen: Past & Future
Blog: KK Hockey By Alanah McGinley
12/07/07 at 04:43 PM ET | Comments (0)
From Jeremy Rutherford at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch,
"He's a young guy, and he's big," Blues President John Davidson said. "He has good work habits, and he's a good person. We expect him to be a really good goalkeeper, and he is. He's a pup, but there's a future there."
It was less than eight years ago that Toivonen chose hockey over soccer, a difficult decision that changed his life for good.
"I was like 15 or 16, and there were two camps at the same time," Toivonen said. "There was a soccer camp, the top select camp in my area, and there was a (Finnish) national team camp for hockey.
"The hockey guys basically laid it out to me. They said, 'If you go to soccer, catch you later.' I just decided to go to hockey. I thought I had a better chance making it as a hockey player where I was from ... because of the money and support that was being put into hockey. I don't think I ever played a soccer game after that."

Larionov Mixes Hockey & Wine
Blog: KK Hockey By Alanah McGinley
12/07/07 at 04:03 PM ET | Comments (0)
From the Oakland Press,
After his retirement, the player known as "the Professor" turned his hobby into a business, naming his import company after his game-winning goal in the third overtime of Game 3 of the 2002 Stanley Cup Finals. He is partnered with Mike Davis in distributing wines from Australia and California in Michigan as well as both Switzerland and Russia.
Of course, hockey is not far from Larionov's business, as names of his wines include, "Hat Trick," "Slapshot," or Triple Overtime Chardonnay, Cabernet and Enela—which is the name of his wife spelled backwards, according to a release by his company.

Avs Have Been Up & Down
12/07/07 at 02:52 PM ET | Comments (0)
from Terry Frei at ESPN,
Some days, they're in a playoff spot. Some days, they're out of it, period.
"I think we're a ways away from finding out how good we are," Avalanche coach Joel Quenneville said this week. "I don't think we've had any consistency at the top of our game to clarify that identity and find out how good we can be. We've had some stretches where we've been good and sporadic games where we've been at our best. It's still a motivation to be able to capture that at a consistent level."
Some of the Avalanche's problems, but not all of them, can be laid at the crease of goalies Jose Theodore and Peter Budaj, who have been so-so at best and often worse.

Penner A Work In Progress

from Terry Jones of the Edmonton Sun,
Penner has six goals and eight assists for 14 points so far this season, including goals in back-to-back games on the road trip.
Linemate and interim captain Shawn Horcoff says he's good with Penner.
"He's a little bit of a work in progress," he said. "It's not easy to play like he did in L.A. every night. That's real tough to do. But he has potential to do that. You have to remember he's essentially in his second year in the league. You have to be patient.
"I think he's going to be there. This year? Maybe not. But by the second half of next year ..."

The Old NHL Creeping Back
12/07/07 at 01:20 PM ET | Comments (0)
from Ed Willes of the Vancouver Province,
Crosby, it seems, has already provided some enduring moments in his short career, but when you watch the highlights these days, it's other images which stand out. He's trying to stickhandle through four defenders on the way to the net. Or he's carrying a couple of backcheckers to the goalie. Or he's operating in spaces tighter and more congested than the Tokyo subway during rush hour.
True, he still produces numbers. But the new NHL promised a game in which Crosby and Alexander Ovechkin and so many others could flourish.
Right now their going back on their word and that's a problem because there's a lot more than Crosby's point totals at stake here

Saturday Night Live fans have been speculating for weeks whether the king of digital shorts, Andy Samberg, is leaving the popular sketch comedy show. Now it's official.
Samberg was recently interviewed by The New York Times and he confirmed that he'll no longer be a part of SNL. He was featured on the NBC show for almost a decade and pioneered the SNL Digital Short.
"It's an incredibly emotional and strange moment in my life," he told The New York Times. "Obviously it's not a huge shock, but I did officially decide not to come back."
In honour of Samberg, here are some of his funniest moments on SNL.

I was the companion he referred to. What he failed to mention was the rest of the story. That was a cold, foggy, Sunday morning. As we sat in the train station, we saw 3 beggar kids climb out from under a box bench seat. As they left for their day on the streets, I looked under the bench. I could see a couple old blankets, a couple old pair of shoes and socks, and the remains of a very old coat. I still have a lump in my throat as I remember that experience. Every ounce of feeling sorry for myself, because I wasn't home with my family on that great celebration day, hung in my throat like a giant lump as I realized just how lucky I was.

Berne Coveralls: Black Insulated Duck Coveralls I417 BK
Do you wear long johns, thick jeans, undershirts, T-shirts, and long sleeves in cold winter weather? Did you know that you can simply wear warm Berne I417 BK Insulated Black Coveralls instead?
These black coveralls are made with 100% cotton duck, an incredibly tough material that's water-repellent and abrasion-resisting. Cotton duck is smooth and strong like canvas, natural and breathable like all comfortable cotton fabrics. An edge-stitched corduroy collar tops off the design. Hood snaps and a snap at the top of the zipper help give you even more cold-weather protection when needed.
A soft, permanent press twill blend (7.5 ounce 65% polyester and 35% cotton) creates the warming, medium-weight insulation. This material is softly quilted to 100% smooth nylon taffeta. A pleated bi-swing action back offers plenty of moving room to give you a loose, comfortable fit.
The water-repellent finish, storm cuffs and wind flaps work to seal out the worst weather, keeping you warm and well-protected. Leg zippers extend from the very bottom up to the waist, so it's easy to wear these coveralls with work boots. Pleated elbows make it easy for you to move your arms as well.
Two reinforced hip pockets (the left side has a secure brass zipper) and two front swing pockets with side openings give you lots of storage space. You'll also find an extra tool pocket and hammer loop on the left leg for other odds and ends. A tape measure loop gives you one more convenient carrying place.
Reinforced knees, triple-needle stitching, reinforced bartacks at stress points and the four-needle stitched waistband (with stretchy elastic inserts) create incredibly tough construction. Why wear a lot of clothes in bad weather, when all you need are Berne I417 BK Insulated Black Coveralls?
Manufactured Sizes: Short S-6XL, Regular S-6XL, Tall S-6XL
Just so you know: larger sizes have higher prices for this item.

Customer Reviews For Berne Coveralls: Black Insulated Duck Coveralls I417 BK
Being big, it's hard to find things that fit. I prefer American made products like the new balance shoes, and I thank you for offering American Made products. The Riggs jeans, Dickies shirts, and the new balance shoes I ordered today, all fit very well and I'm very pleased. Note, I also ordered a Dickies jacket recently that did not fit around the waist (wasn't even close) and wasn't long enough to reach my belt line. Defect or incorrect size marking, I don't know, but we returned it, and ordered another brand jacket today. Your service and return policy is the best and was very helpful, especially when I tried several types of work boots last year before you found me one that fit. Thanks very much for being there, and please do not go out of business or change anything. You're perfect the way you are!"
Bob G. from Scottsburg, Indiana

do people think this is like really romantic or something he can't hold her because he has fucking scissors for hands
no people think it's really fucking sad 'cause he loves her and cant hold her because he has SCISSORS FOR HANDS
I never realized before that she's asking to be held knowing he can't hold her without hurting her, that it's worth the pain and possible death to be with him. that he's worth that.
this is the dangerous type of love we never learn about in fairytales, that you may love someone who hurts you by just touching you but the pain feels good because it's given to you by a lover and it breaks my heart

IDC Retail Insights today announced a new report, Business Strategy: Developing an IoT Technology Strategy (Doc #RI250271), which outlines how retailers must plan now for the Internet of Things (IoT) even if IoT hasn't made it to the top of their priorities list. According to the new report, applied IoT technology positively impacts top- and bottom-line business performance by improving omni-channel operations and enabling personalized and contextualized interaction with consumers. Understanding the technology landscape and defining a roadmap for IoT implementation requires uncommonly long-range planning, but is rewarded with reduced long-term implementation costs and total cost of ownership (TCO).
ClicktoTweet: #IDCRetailInsights arms #Retailers with #IoT #TechnologyStrategy - outlines strategic plan to guide the #reducedcost of ownership of IoT technologies
The convergence of cloud, mobile, big data/analytics, and sensors has created an opportunity for retailers to engage consumers and employees in radically new ways. Within five years consumers will expect that retailers engage them with personalized and contextualized interactions. In the same time frame, if the retailer hasn't figured out how to improve real time inventory accuracy to 98% or better, they will struggle to close the online or click and collect sale.
The report provides the following insights for retailers:
- A definition of IoT technology
- A thorough examination of the technology landscape for IoT (for retailers)
- Specific steps to developing an IoT technology strategy
- Guidance for driving retail IoT programs forward
Leslie Hand, Research Director at IDC Retail Insights, reports that, "Retailers can improve operations, reduce risk and loss, and wow the consumer with IoT-enabled capabilities. Now is the time to establish a strategy and develop a roadmap for IoT. A well thought out plan will guide the reduced cost of ownership of IoT technologies and enable continued agility and innovation."
In another new report announced today, Business Strategy: Understanding the IoT Use Cases For Retail, discusses many of the most common use cases currently being implemented, including product tracking/traceability, interactive consumer engagement and operations, mobile payments, asset management, and fleet and yard management.
The IoT journey, rich in opportunities, is also full of challenges – the biggest of which is enabling tactical applications sometimes in isolation of a plan for an architecture designed for IoT. IoT requires an event-oriented paradigm, which includes listening, bi-directional messaging, information distribution, and communications over a variety of networks. The architecture for IoT stretches the limits of retail legacy networks. When evaluating IoT technologies, IDC Retail Insights recommends retailers gain an understanding of the technology landscape for the variety of technologies and the related intersection points as soon as possible.
The new report also outlines specific steps to developing an IoT technology strategy and emphasizes that retailers interested in engaging the omni-channel consumer with consistent personalized and increasingly contextualized physical and digital interactions should consider how to build an architecture for IoT that will continue to adapt to consumer interaction patterns and needs. Meanwhile, technology vendors and consultants should help retail enterprises define and understand the IoT opportunities and the path forward.

The Who play Quadrophenia at ACC; Bob Dylan coming too
Beloved album gets a full airing Nov. 23; Dylan and Mark Knopfler here Nov. 14.

The Who — such as they are in 2012, anyhow — will play Quadrophenia in its entirety when they play the Air Canada Centre on Nov. 23. The band announced the plans to perform the whole 1973 double album, along with other favourites, in a video news conference Wednesday.
Of course, the venerable British rock band's original bassist and drummer (John Entwhistle and Keith Moon) are both long deceased, but Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend will be joined by longtime Entwhistle replacement Pino Palladino and Zak Starkey on drums, along with others; no word yet on what the ticket prices will be, but they're on sale to the public on July 27. It might be a hot ticket — it's the band's first North American tour in four years, and Quadrophenia (a loose concept album about youthful trauma and mental troubles) is one of their most treasured albums.
"I could still remember that feeling of struggling to fit in, something that happened to me when I was even younger, around fourteen, and everyone around me seemed to have got their lives on track. This is such a universal experience for young people that it has echoed," Townshend said, in a news release, reflecting on writing the songs in 1972.
In advance of the tour, a special one-night in-theater screening of the documentary The Who: Quadrophenia — Can You See the Real Me? The Story Behind the Album is set for Aug. 1 at 7:30 p.m. at cinemas across Canada. Details at cineplex.com/events.
UPDATE: Bob Dylan's website reveals that he's coming to the ACC on Nov. 14, with Mark Knopfler. Dylan will be touring his upcoming album Tempest (out on Sept. 11), but who can say how much of it he'll play live.

I've had enough of this!My disability check that was promised on Monday did not show up today. After a phone call to Sedgwick, I was told that since they had not sent me my letter detailing my avenues of appeal, that they were going to pay me this month. But, in their total incompetence, they did not submit the authorization until after some AT&T cut-off and the check did not go out. AT&T will allegedly wait another month before cutting the check. I explained to them that by the time I get documentation telling me what I can do to appeal this that I won't have the income and medical insurance to even get them the requested documentation. They replied that they are not responsible for me not getting medical documentation. I told them that it wasn't someone else that canceled my benefits and all I got was a "well that's your opinion". I asked them to then explain where I was wrong and was told that they would not argue with me over it.

Tuesday 13th December
Question: Why did the chicken cross the road?
Answer: To get 12c off at Woolworths.
Millsy kicked things off this week with an odd-servation of a new pricing war between Coles and Woolworths.
Coles were advertising their BBQ chickens for $10 flat but in a piece of marketing brilliance that surely would have stopped Coles shoppers in their tracks, Woolworths were offering a full 12c off their standard BBQ chicken.
That's right...a full 12c...1/8 of a dollar off.
Not alone in his disbelief, Millsy was called by one listener who asked if 'The Fresh Food People' would be liable for any injuries incurred by the mob of shoppers that would stampede toward Woolies to take advantage of this surely short lived price.
Fair dinkum! How stupid do supermarkets (and marketers) think people are to believe that a 12c saving on a chicken will change shopping habits. This is 12c shot at Coles is nothing more than an irritation to shoppers, the equivalent to that invasive neighbour that sticks his head over the fence and asks 'what did you pay for your new car?'
You know your answer will always be $3000 more than what he paid and he gleefully tells you that should have come to him first.
Well done Woolworths you just became 'that' neighbour for me. The one people avoid unless they really need something or have forgotten why they were avoiding you in the first place.
Blog comments
The supermarkets are having a lend - sure there are lots of specials but for the most popular items, you have to buy 2 !!!! Thats all well and good but my grocery budget shouldnt have to blow out to get a deal, it should be the same price for one or more if it is a special !Brian Wednesday 9 November, 2011 - 2:11 PM
Brilliant little rant. I for one was turned off Coles when that dreadful "Down, down, prices are staying down" ad came on with the woman who couldn't sing to save herself. Now? What do I do? It's like trying to pick sides for a water polo game and the only two players left to choose from are Barney the Dinosaur and John Goodman!Shane Kavanagh Tuesday 18 October, 2011 - 8:05 AM

Former LSU, Saints football player arrested in battery, resisting an officer
Former LSU and Saints player Randall Gay was arrested Wednesday after he allegedly caused a disturbance at a Baton Rouge bar, NBC affiliate WVLA reported.
The Baton Rouge Police Department reports officers were dispatched to the Bulldog bar on Wednesday, May 8 in reference to a disturbance. When officers arrived they found the former Saints cornerback intoxicated and refusing to leave the bar.
Gay was arrested and charged with two counts of simple battery, resisting arrest, remaining on premises after being forbidden, and disturbing the peace. He was booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison.
The 31-year-old Gay is a Baton Rouge native who retired from football in July 2011. He was a member of the LSU Tigers National Championship football team in 2003 and a member of the New Orleans Saints Super Bowl Championship team in 2009.

We are all seeing more green lately—shamrocks and leprechauns are appearing on St. Patrick's Day! Adding "green" to your plate, in the form of vegetables, is a way to keep you feeling full and staying healthy…and dare we say lucky?!
Green vegetables in season during March, like asparagus, kale, and broccoli, are easy to cook up as a side dish. All of them are great roasted. Simply wash (remove the ends of the asparagus stalks), toss into a hot oven (350 degrees F) with a drizzle of olive oil and ground pepper and cook until tender. You can add more flavor by sprinkling on a little grated Parmesan cheese, paprika or hot pepper flakes.
Don't have time to cook? Eating green vegetables raw gives you loads of antioxidants, which boost your immune system and help to protect your body against cancer! Use fresh spinach and dark green lettuce to make a salad. Make it fun by creating a rainbow on your field of greens with cherry tomatoes, orange peppers, yellow onions, and red cabbage. All the colors ensure you are getting a wide range of vitamins and other nutrients. Of course, it wouldn't be St. Patrick's Day without cabbage! Cabbage is a member of the cruciferous veggie family and is packed with vitamins and fiber to help lower cholesterol and promote a healthy heart. To unlock the benefits of cabbage, try steaming it or sautéing shredded leaves in a pan with a little water, garlic, and ginger. Finish it with your favorite Mediterranean dressing or vinegar!
Get creative and add GREEN to your plate for a lucky start to every meal! Tell us about your favorite green dish!
