For me it is a ...Population growth is exponential. For me it is a really scary thought just how many more people are here than when I was young. And the shift has been to move to cities, like myself, to work.<br /><br />My natural inclination was to live in the country, grow my own food and preserve what I could. I did this for a number of years until I lost my job. New career = city job = enough money to survive.<br /><br />I'm the weird old lady on my street that grows vegetables in her front yard, sits in her swing sipping homemade wine while crocheting dishcloths.<br /><br />I don't even care. If the supermarket closed down I could survive for a couple of weeks at least!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15032479084775154076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700826032924534249.post-69861458841392524552012-01-08T09:29:11.985-06:002012-01-08T09:29:11.985-06:00@Annie, good to have you back!
@Yan, hope to be ea...@Annie, good to have you back!<br />@Yan, hope to be eating more veggies myself this year!<br />@Sue, me too...except when it comes to BBQ port--my Achilles heel!<br />@Practical, me too!<br />@Lindy, any time I toss both chicken and cashews into a stir fry I call it Cashew Chicken, but I've never made it the same twice. hope you'll share your hubby's recipe sometime over on Minting Nickels!<br />@femme, I guess it's bc animal protein takes more water/energy to produce. If we all became vegetarians, maybe there wouldn't be any hungry people in this world. *sigh*<br />@JenMuna, thanks--incredibly she seems good as new!Dmariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14689601569495984413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700826032924534249.post-2516480067903906832012-01-07T15:46:10.123-06:002012-01-07T15:46:10.123-06:00I as well prefer to eat less meat!

Or because people will be more health conscience? I really liked the piece about the rooftop farmer, too. Your stir fry looks delish! And kudos for no food waste!ffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908249955558788075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700826032924534249.post-73237757369938736802012-01-07T10:28:45.053-06:002012-01-07T10:28:45.053-06:00I'm thinking we'll all start growing our o...I'm thinking we'll all start growing our own vegetables in the back yard, since all those extra people will have to build condos on the leftover farm land. :)<br /><br />My husband's favorite meal is homemade cashew chicken, his mom's recipe. I've never cooked it for him because it's a big undertaking for a regular night. We recently made a deal that we'll make it as a joint effort some Saturday night in the future. Yours sure looks good!Lindy Minthttp://www.mintingnickels.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700826032924534249.post-53540529868443323072012-01-06T01:43:21.198-06:002012-01-06T01:43:21.198-06:00I just hope we can grow enough vegetables!I just hope we can grow enough vegetables!Practical Parsimonyhttp://www.practical-parsimony.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700826032924534249.post-32224386366180767492012-01-06T01:08:39.301-06:002012-01-06T01:08:39.301-06:00I've always preferred a LITTLE meat and a LOT ...I've always preferred a LITTLE meat and a LOT of vegetables.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10122524042294993949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700826032924534249.post-72404149959098276142012-01-05T23:06:39.082-06:002012-01-05T23:06:39.082-06:00I agree with you !
