Vege update:
Social scientists and law enforcement officials
have identified animal abuse as a symptom of emotional illness and a precursor
to violent crimes against human beings. To allow individuals guilty of
perpetrating such cruel acts to go unpunished or not sufficiently punished
would be to sanction these horrific crimes and would permit them to go
on to possibly commit violent crimes against humans.

Cakes in Strawberry Yogurt (Malpoora)
This luscious version of the well known Indian sweet Malpoora is not
traditional but rather something that has been developed over 2 decades
in the Sunday Feast kitchens of Hare Krishna Temples around the world.
Spoonfuls of thick batter are deep-fried in ghee to produce doughnut-like
soft cakes, which are suspended in sweetened, fruit flavoured yogurt. You
can substitute any fresh ripe berry for the strawberries, or try banana,
passion fruit, papaya, mango, or kiwifruit. (BTW during chaturmasya's second
month some may refrain from eating yogurt preparations, even though the
vrata is from yogurt only)
PREPARATION TIME: 15 minutes
BATTER RESTING TIME: 15 minutes
COOKING TIME: 20 minutes
YIELD: about 2 dozen
Ingredients:
2 and 1/4 cups (560 ml) self-raising flour
1 cup (250 ml) icing sugar
1 and 1/4 cups (310 ml) cold water
ghee for deep-frying
5 cups (11/4 litres) plain yogurt, chilled
3/4 cup (185 ml) caster sugar
1 and 1/2 cups (375 ml) strawberries, washed
and quartered
Method:
1. Sift together the flour and icing sugar in a bowl. Add the water
gradually, while stirring with a wire whisk, until the mixture reaches
a consistency somewhere between batter and dough. Spoon in one tablespoon
(20 ml) of yogurt and whisk again. The finished batter should cling to
a spoon. Allow to set for 15 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, heat the ghee to a depth of 6.5 - 7.5 cm (21/2 - 3 inches)
in a wok or deep-frying pan over moderately low heat 160°C/320°F.
3. Spoon out a tablespoon of batter from the bowl. With the aid of
a second spoon, deftly slide the batter into the hot ghee. Quickly repeat
the procedure for about 8 spoonfuls of batter. Allow the cakes to inflate
in the ghee. Then turn them over with a slotted spoon and fry them, turning
occasionally, for about 3 to 4 minutes, or until they are light golden
brown all over. Remove and drain. Repeat until all the batter is used up.
4. Combine the yogurt and caster sugar in a large bowl. Crush a few
berries through your fingers into the yogurt. Add the rest of the berries
and combine well.
5. Carefully fold the fried cakes into the fruit yogurt and refrigerate,
allowing the cakes to soak for about 30 minutes before serving. Serve the
malpoora in individual dessert bowls with strawberry yogurt spooned on
top.

Making Food Sacred - Offering
our food to Krishna:
....excerpt from lecture by HDG Srila A.C.
Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada - Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.3.1-3 -- San Francisco,
March 28, 1968
The Vedic literature says like this, that God has no leg, no hand. Therefore the impersonalists take advantage of it. "Oh, here it is stated God has no legs, no hands." But the next line is, javana grhita: "He can accept everything which you offer Him in devotion."
Now how He can accept? If He has no hand, how He can accept things from us? That means He hasn't got a hand like us. His hand is different. Therefore even though He is situated in the spiritual world, which is far, far away from us, still, He says in the Bhagavad-gita, it is said,
patram puspam phalam toyam
yo me bhaktya prayacchati
tad aham bhakty-upahrtam
asnami prayatatmanah
Krsna says that "A little flower or little water or a little leaf, whatever My devotee offers Me in love and devotion, I accept it." And tad aham bhakty-upahrtam. "And because he has brought it with great devotion, therefore I eat." Tad aham bhakty-upahrtam asnami. Asnami means "I eat." Now you can say, "All right, I'll offer these fruits and flower to God, but it is the same. It is remaining. How He is eating?" But His eating is not like my eating, because He hasn't got a body like this. This body is material. If you bring me a plate of fruits, this body immediately swallows it. But He has got spiritual body. He eats... Simply as soon as He knows that you have offered it in devotion, He eats immediately.
Go here to follow the simple system for offering
foodstuffs to the Lord
... and always
with the Magic ingredient - Offer it to Krishna.....
... with L'n D (love and devotion)

Points of View
I don't know if Shel was actually a vegetarian or not, but he did do
some pro-veg works like the following:
Thanksgiving dinner's sad and thankless,
Christmas dinner's dark and blue,
When you stop and try to see it
From the turkey's point of view.
Sunday dinner isn't funny
Easter feasts are just bad luck,
When you see it from the viewpoint
Of the chicken or the duck.
Oh, how I once loved tuna salad,
Pork and lobsters, lamb chops,
too,
Till I stopped and looked at dinner
From the dinner's point of view.

lyrics)
Pictures of Animals in the womb
showing their maturation and development much the same as humans
http://prisonplanet.com/articles/november2006/231106animals.htm
They are alive in the womb, they grow in the womb, they take birth,
they mature, they have their own families, and reproduce.
"They" are spiritual beings who simply took their birth in the animal
kingdom.

That’s the single most important
thing you could do. It’s staggering when you think about it.
Vegetarianism takes care of
so many things in one shot: ecology, famine, cruelty.”
