Earth Hour

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Addendum: In response to Kathryn's query, here is how I spent Earth Hour -- enjoying a warm and nourishing dinner and lively conversation with my Mom.

Recipe in development -- basically it consists of alterating layers of (1) whole wheat tortillas, (2) a mixture of corn, peppers, salsa, seasonings, and "refried" (lard-free) black beans and (3) a mixture of cottage, cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, all baked in a spring-form pan.
