I love to read. I am religious. I am not a vegetarian but I don't each much meat. I grew up poor and unable to afford much. I ate lots of vegetables growing up. I am of an older age. I have daughters. I have some grandchildren. I would like more grandchildren. I would like to live long enough to meet more grandchildren.
I am a single dad. I used to have a wife. I am divorced. We are Catholic. I have a son who is 8 years old. I am a vegetarian. I like vegetarian food. I like grilling vegetables during the summer. I like grilling eggplant, zucchini, and similar vegetables. I enjoy grilled vegetables with balsamic drizzled on them.  My son does not like vegetables unless I deep fry them and serve them with ketchup. I grow my own zucchini. My health is not great. My doctor told me that I was on the path to developing heart problems due to my diet. I used to eat and drink unhealthily.
Do you have any good recipes or instructions for grilled vegetables? I was thinking about what you said about how healthy they are, and I would like to follow in your footsteps. I am interested in trying some tonight. Honestly, I try to keep everything simple. I use extra virgin olive oil to grill them with and I let them cook just enough so they are perfectly tender and add a bit of balsamic and light seasoning. I have all the ingredients you just named, so I can start right away. I hope to be able to cook vegetables so well that even my grandchildren will learn to like eating them. What is your favorite vegetable dish? Well my favorite veggie combo right now is cucumber/tomato salad with onions. This is raw and not grilled but it is amazing. Sounds interesting. I believe getting nutrition from food may be better than getting it from vitamins. I once got a bottle of vitamins and didn't realize it had extremely high amounts of vitamin b12 vitamin 5 and I had a bad reaction. Now, if I need vitamins, it is probably safer to get it from vegetables. It definitely is better to get it from food especially straight from the ground and organic. Raw is better too. I try to eat lots of fruits and veggies right from the tree or vine. I may also try to grow my own vegetables. I have never grown vegetables. I was once told my grandmother grew vegetables in her backyard that she used to prepare dinner for her family. What vegetables do you suggest I try growing to start out? Probably tomatoes and sweet peppers. Those were pretty easy for me. Or carrots! Got it. Guess I have to wait for winter to pass. Or are there vegetables I can grow in winter? Maybe there is a magazine I can subscribe to that has all kinds of information about maintaining gardens. Do you know of any? I subscribe to the local newspaper and that's how I keep up to date on the news. I think those would need more summery or spring weather. Unless you have room to put a greenhouse of some sort. Try Fine Gardening Magazine or Amateur Gardening. I'll check those magazines out.  I don't think I can afford a greenhouse right now. I'm on somewhat of a budget right now. I've heard of people talking to their plants. I really think praying by plants would help them too! Yes, I've heard of people talking to them too. I'm not sure I could do that. I would feel weird. HA!
