"Now, no matter what the mullah teaches, there is only one sin, only one. And that is theft. Every other sin is a variation of theft... When you kill a man, you steal a life. You steal his wife's right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone's right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness... There is no act more wretched than stealing" Baba to Amir, The Kite Runner

in a crafted dish comes a salad you wish to be as delightful as pure freshness. a lettuce so crisp as it touches your lips and your mind starts to ponder. veggies galor! on the salad, put more, the colors so vibrant its a healthy opened door. if you choose to eat a salad, think of a ballad, cherish the refreshing taste, get all your veggies and put them on and mix in a dressing paste.

&quot;You&#039;ve got to learn to move on, because life will move on. If you don&#039;t move on, you&#039;ll just end up in over your head.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Never regret anything because at the time, it was exactly what you wanted.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;We accept the love we think we deserve.&quot;
