The Beauty of Staying Together (Former Title: DETOUR
Calvina, the young battered wife of Duane, is in desperate need of a new start in life. Will her jealous husband, the mad man with whom she had been unequally yoked, prove too much to ever hope for a chance of staying together--a chance to fix her troubled marriage?
We encourage you to read the two main character profiles before reading the first chapter. We can be so wrong in the strong initial opinions we form of people, which we see in The Beauty Of Staying Together (originally published under the title: Detour), a story based on true events.

Getting Kids to Eat Vegetables – Five Recipe Ideas
by: Evrard Beaujolie
The fresh food section in supermarkets always looks colourful and vibrant. With more and more organic food and hybrid varieties of fruits and vegetables displayed enticingly, this section is probably where you resolve to eat better and feed your kids nutritious meals too. But once the refrigerator is stocked with the best quality vegetables and you find the most healthy, vegetable-laden recipe for dinner, the youngest members of the family will probably eye you with disapproval. Here are a few recipes that could win their approval and makes getting kids to eat vegetables a little easier.
Creamy soup served with crunchy bread. Soups are really nutritious as steamed vegetables contain more nutrients than fried ones. And including cream and pureed vegetables in your soup make it both healthier and tastier. And you can always serve them with a side of toasted brown garlic bread or some croutons for dipping. This is a great later afternoon snack as it would not fill them up too much for dinner.
Sautee an onion with two tablespoons of butter and add 1 can of chicken or vegetable stock and bring to a boil. After simmering it for about 15 minutes, puree this mixture. Return the mixture to the stove and add a can of pureed pumpkin or any vegetable of your choice. You can also add some aromatics and spices like a pinch of paprika or dried basil. Add some more stock as per the consistency you prefer. Let the mixture simmer for another 10 – 15 minutes. Finally add the whipping cream, and allow it to heat through but not boil. Season to taste. Serve with bread.
Oven Baked Zucchini Chips
While nothing can bring a child to the table like deep fried chips, it cannot be served constantly due to its poor nutritive value. Alternatively, oven baked chips are healthier and can be made to taste just as good. Combine some breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, and a pinch of salt, pepper and garlic powder in a bowl. Dip slices of zucchini in milk and coat them well in the breadcrumb mixture. Moisten oven friendly wire racks with cooking spray and place the zucchini slices on them. Place a cookie sheet under the racks and bake at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes or until the chips are brown and crisp. Make sure you serve the chips immediately.
Glazed Vegetables
Glazed vegetables are bound to look far more appetizing for a child than plain steamed ones. In fact, your kids are more likely to polish them away faster. In a saucepan, gently mix and coat baby vegetables like carrots with water, honey, butter and salt and bring it to a boil. Cover and let it simmer in medium heat for about 5 to 7 minutes. Uncover it and make sure you cook it for another 2 minutes till the liquid in the saucepan is sticky. Squeeze some lemon juice and season with pepper. Sprinkle some parsley before serving.
Carrot and Orange Juice
If you can't get them to eat it, then get them to drink up. In fact, if it's the right concoction, your kids might not notice the veggies hidden in the juice. Peel and blend carrots in a juicer. Peel and blend oranges next. Strain both the juices and add some honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir well. Serve chilled with a slice of orange in the glass.

Good tips and recipe ideas for getting kids to eat vegetables. But, people should avoid hybrid vegetables and return to organically grown HEIRLOOM (unchanged) vegetables--and other foods.
