More Herbs, Less Nuclear Tests

And we're back again! Today (Wednesday, August 29) we are taking a stance on a couple of specific topics for you since our holidays include International Day Against Nuclear Tests and More Herbs, Less Salt Day. So, let's get going before there's no time left to go!
On December 2, 2009, the 64th session of the United Nations General Assembly officially declared that 29 August would be International Day Against Nuclear Tests. Since the first test in 1945, there have been worldwide repercussions that will never cease. Albuquerque has its own history with nuclear testing, and we've been to the museum here in town to learn about the history and science of nuclear bombs. During an office discussion today at the university, I found out that there was a special seminar going on that today to educate and inform students about nuclear tests as well as demonstrate why nuclear testing should stop. My office mate Ben just happened to going to this class so it seemed serendipitous that we just happened to be talking about it!

Second, and lastly, is More Herbs, Less Salt Day. This one is all about getting and staying healthy since using herbs (fresh or bottled) is far healthier than adding gobs of salt to your meals. In our house, salt is rarely used in any of our food and we definitely rely pretty heavily on herbs for seasoning. So tasty!

It even says "No Salt" on the label!

Alrighty! That's what we've got for ya.

CS, out.
