I prefer pole beans because they are easier to pick, have better flavor and have less problems from pests and disease. Pole beans will grow nearly anywhere. These types of beans require staking with supports that can be from items such as bamboo, string, a fence or trellis. Growing pole beans gives you the advantage of maximizing your space, and the beans grow straighter and are easier to pick. A method I use is to take some six foot long wooden poles (I use bamboo stakes) and place them in an arrangement like a teepee, tying them together at the top. It only takes up about a three foot area. Bush beans grow in the form of small, bushy plants, which are close to the ground, and are easy to grow. They need no support, req

There is no argument about the fact that Louis Vuitton bags have over the years come to be perceived as 'special' in some mysterious way to many people - a charming fact, really - which makes them many lady's first choice of handbag in as far as they can afford them. But what exactly is it that makes the Louis Vuitton bags so special? photo credit: bestlouisvuittonsaleme.tumblr.com Looking at the bags carefully, and examining peoples attitudes about them reveals at least a couple of things (and quite related things at that), which make the bags so special. The first thing that makes Louis Vuitton bags so special is of course their quality. Now quality is a very wide term as far as things like handbags go; and in the case of bags, the high quality manifests through the choice of the base material from which they are made, the workmanship through which the Louis Vuitton bags are put together, and ultimately, the bags' durability. With regard to cho

Life lessons usually don't make sense to us until years have passed and we've had enough experiences to have learned the hard way. As a father to an energetic 5-year-old the whole new notion of teacher and role model for my boy keeps me on my toes and I'm becoming more aware of those moments when I've got the chance to pass on valuable father to son wisdom. photo credit: searchpp.com Here a few of the jewels that I'm going to pass on to my son. Wisdom - Possessing a knack for the best use of knowledge. Wisdom is the proper application of knowledge so while we all make mistakes but everyone should be striving to master using knowledge in the best manner. That's the only way to really get what you want in life. Inspiration - Being connected to, and influenced by Source Energy. That "source energy" or Force and Power resides at the very center of your being, within you. And no matter how tough or challenging life may seem, that pow

While most people know that they need to drink more water, actually doing it can be tough. The trick to getting more of that purifying liquid into your body is adding some flavor. Infused water is the perfect way to do just that. photo credit: amazon.com Infused Water: Flavorful Without Sweeteners Instead of grabbing a sugary soda, you can drink water, which is free of any sugar or artificial sweeteners. This makes the water far healthier, yet it still tastes good enough that you will want to drink more. Infused water can be made in a few different ways, but the most common is simply steeping the flavor source in the water for a few hours before drinking. Flavor sources can be anything from the rinds of fresh fruit or slices of fruit to chopped herbs. The flavor of the fruit or vegetable seeps into the water and gives it a pleasant taste without boosting the calories. You can find a wide range of flavored waters these days, but a few flavors are particularly pop

One of the most gorgeous wedding flowers is the peony. Feminine, gracious, and charming, peonies are one of the favorite flowers for spring brides. These are some ideas on how to incorporate lush peonies into your wedding bouquets and centerpieces. photo credit: fantailproductions.com The ideal time to use peonies in a wedding is the late spring to early summer. They can also be special ordered for autumn weddings, though there is always some risk involved in relying on out-of-season flowers (what if they don't look great?). Peonies are not one of the less expensive blossoms, sorry to say, but they are certainly one of the most breathtaking. Fragrant, full, and ultra-girly, the graciousness of peonies is unparalleled. photo credit: forum.ge Peonies work beautifully for round bridal bouquets.

It is said that carrot is the ultimate vegetable among all, just as garlic is the ultimate herb of all herbs. Let us explore together why carrot is beneficial for our health and why making it part of our diet is imperative. For starters, carrots have a high dose of beta-carotene. This is an anti-oxidant that is converted by the human body into Vitamin A. Although the body can only convert a particular amount of beta-carotene to Vitamin A on a daily basis, the excess beta-carotene acts as a protection for other diseases and medical conditions. Carrots have powerful healing properties that people do not realize. Drinking a glass of carrot juice daily can actually make you healthier than most vitamin tablets. Below is a list of several diseases and complications that carrot can help eliminate or heal. photo credit: hworldtruth.tv Acidosis This is a condition in which there is an increased acidity in the blood. This happens when the blood pH level falls below 7.35.

Kids aren't born hating vegetables, they are taught it. Most likely they've learned from watching how their parents reacted to eating vegetables. If you love broccoli, then chances are your kids might like it as well. I use to eat huge plates of broccoli when I was a kid. Getting kids to eat fruit really isn't a problem. Stick to a bowl of strawberries, blueberries, raspberries apples, oranges or anything like that and the kids will eat it up. Trying to take a kids peach is almost as bad as trying to take their candy. Heck I've seen kids love lemons. Weird, but true. This article gives you some pointers on how to encourage your kids to eat more fruits and vegetables and less candy, junk, ice cream, etc. The most important thing to do is to not hide vegetables from them. Don't try to conceal them. This will tell them that their unpleasant and that they should avoid them. If they learn from a young age to enjoy vegetables they will eat them the

Cabbage is one of the most popular Winter vegetables in Turkey. There are several dishes made from cabbage such as cabbage stew, cabbage borek (a kind of pastry), cabbage soup, cabbage pickles, and stuffed cabbage rolls. Among all these dishes, stuffed cabbage rolls are my favorite and the most common one. Just like stuffed grapevine leaves, there are various kinds of cabbage rolls. Sometimes the shape of its rolling changes, but generally its filling has variety. In fact, rice is the constant ingredient of its filling but there may be some different additions to it. In some regions minced meat is added, in some regions tomatoes and some greens (we call it cabbage rolls/cabbage sarma with olive oil), are added and in some other regions chestnut is the addition. I love the one with olive oil as this main dish turns out to be a snack for me like stuffed grapevine leaves, so I'll give its recipe here. I made these stuffed cabbage rolls last Sunday, and we finished it
