Free Tomato Seeds for Label GMOs Initiative (CA only)
In bid to help push the Label GMO initiative in CA forward, Baker Creek Seeds is sponsoring non-GMO San Marzano Tomato seeds to be distributed free all over the state of California. Anyone living in California who would like to help the cause may request the seed packets to hand out at farmers' markets, garden events, health events, church or school meetings, or any other gathering. To participate, simply email jeregettle@gmail.com with your address and indicated how many packets you would like for distribution.
The initiative will go on Nov's ballot in CA. If it passes, companies will probably be forced to label GMOs nationwide. It's not political for us, the little people. Countries from China to Indonesia the whole of the EU require labeling. We to have the right to know what's in our food.

Kitchen Tip: Whipping Cream with Immersion Blender
I think pulling out my stand mixer (or even a hand mixer) then having to wash all the parts is a real drag for just whipping cream. So, I decided to try whipping it with an immersion blender. IT WORKS!
Just pour your cream into a tall container, place blender right to the bottom and turn on. Slowly lift the blender a little so that all levels of the cream gets whipped. You should get whipped cream in minutes!

Uzbek Palov
Someone gave me this recipe and it's very good. It's prepared in one pot which I like and reminds me of fried rice. It requires A LOT of oil but the end result doesn't taste oily. Just buttery and delicious! Lamb is traditional but I used venison.
Ingredients
1 lb venison or beef or lamb (traditional), cubed
5 carrots, peeled and julienned
1 c dried chickpeas, soaked overnight
3.5 c long grained rice, washed until water runs clear
1 large onion, peeled and sliced thin
1 c butter
8 c boiling water
Salt & cumin to taste
1 clove of garlic, outer skin peeled
Method
Melt the butter in a dutch oven over medium heat. When hot, add the meat. The meat should sizzle and brown. Add onions and cook until caramelized. Add carrots and chickpeas. Cook until softened. Add rice and boiling water and allow to boil. Lower the garlic head in the middle of the pot. Lower the heat, cover and allow the dish to simmer on low heat until the rice is cooked. Season to taste.
Remove the garlic head and mix the ingredients in the pot before serving.
