Some have been success- ful, others haven't. Personal- ly, I know I couldn't follow one because I love my carbs! How- ever, I would be willing to try this low carb recipe that I found this week because it sounds ab- solutely delicious. So, here's to you low carb dieters. Enjoy! INGREDIENTS • 1 egg, beaten • 6 pieces bone-in, skin-on chicken • 1 bag pork rinds • salt and pepper • avocado oil or lard DIRECTIONS 1. In a cast iron skillet, heat about 1/2 inch of oil. Heat the oil to 350 degrees. 2. Pulse the pork rinds until they are the consisten- cy of breadcrumbs. Pat the chicken dry. Season with salt and pepper. Dip into the egg and then into the pork rind breadcrumbs. 3. If the oil has reached 350 degrees, gently place the chicken into the oil. Cook on each side for around 5 minutes. Check the oil temperature frequent- ly to be sure it is staying around 350 degrees (to avoid burning). 4. Continue turning the chicken every few min- utes until the internal temperature of the chick- en reaches 155 -160. Remove to paper towels once it is up to temperature and allow to cool a bit. Source: yummly.com I have worked with people of all ag- es, and that has given me the unique experience of learning about the dif- ferent value systems of many people. It has been very interesting to listen to every person's story and what is impor- tant in their life, whether they are six or 60 years old. Values reflect our sense of right and wrong. They help us grow and develop. They help us create the future we want. The decisions we make every day are a reflection of our values. We learn most of our values from our parents and extended families. Our family values stem from our so- cial and cultural values. Sometimes new life experiences may change val- ues we previously held. Individual values reflect how we live our life and what we consider impor- tant for our own self-interests. Individ- ual values include enthusiasm, creativ- ity, humility and personal fulfillment. Relationship values reflect how we relate to other people in our life, such as friends, family, teachers, managers, etc. Relationship values include open- ness, trust, generosity and caring. Social values reflect how we relate to society. Social values include justice, freedom, respect, community, and re- sponsibility. In today's world, it may seem our so- ciety doesn't practice many values. We have a rise in discrimination, abuse of power, greed, etc. What are we leav- ing behind for our future generations? Maybe it's time society takes a hard look at its values. Here are some things I feel our so- ciety needs more of: • Empathy — Empathy is defined as understanding and sharing the feel- ings of another. People need to under- stand who others are and accept who they are. Focusing on how we can grow together should be our ultimate goal. • Respect — Mutual respect is needed for all of us. This is what makes us human. Having respect for every- one, despite the differences between us, is vital in order for a society to func- tion well. • Love — Having love in our hearts keeps us from feeling the need to harm others. Love helps us acknowledge the similarities we all share rather than the differences of color, religion or sexual orientation. • Loyalty — Loyalty is a value that binds us to a person, thing or senti- ment. With loyalty, we do not betray. If we all shared loyalty, it would help us build the strength needed to stand up against something that would harm our society. • Honesty — One form of honesty in society is accepting yourself. With honesty, you can admit your flaws and take the necessary steps to improve yourself. When we can admit to our flaws it can help someone else admit theirs. Ultimately, we can all help each other become better people. Values can be contagious; if you practice them, many others will al- so, including our children. Hopefully more practice from all of us will leave the world a better place for future gen- erations.

UPHOLDING VALUES IN TODAY'S SOCIETY "What's that black bug on the wall? " my kid asked. "I dunno." "Is it a wasp? " "Dunno." "Cockroach? " "Dunno." "Spider? " "Dunno." "Aren't you go- ing to look at it? " he asked. "Nope." It's spring in my part of the world. The birds are chirping. The butterflies are fluttering. The flowers are blossoming. And every living creature that can bite, sting, slither or murder is out, as well. I have already removed ticks from my son's body. Walking through the de- li section of my local grocery re- cently, I heard one patron tell- ing another about how tick bites made her allergic to meat. "If I eat any red meat, I'll wind up in the hospital. I used to love a barbecue." The oth- er patron glared at the first. "Sorry you lost your appe- tite. My sister got Lyme dis- ease from her tick bite and lost her mind. Shame about the burgers, though." Oof. I'm old enough to re- member a time when we'd keep an eye out for a target mark and otherwise not wor- ry about it. No longer. Every spring, the tick diseases are spreading. It's only April, and half my friends have run to their pediatricians for an- tibiotics after arachnid re- movals. This week, notices were sent home from both of my children's schools about lice outbreaks. "'Tis the season," one notice proclaimed, as if stated with a light chuck- le. How are they laugh- ing? I'm not over my house- hold's lice outbreak from six months ago. I doubt I'll ev- er get over it. The trauma of combing my children's hair and plucking out eggs will haunt me for the rest of my life. It's up there with the time I swallowed a cup of curdled milk, choked on the See BUZZ on page 7 Katiedid vs... by Katiedid Langrock Spring buzz
