Egg Salad

I woke up yesterday morning and glanced at the morning paper. The front page had a photo of a burning police cruiser and I was shocked to hear how violent a G20 protest march had become. It's a shame and disgrace to our city. See the news story below for more details. Apparently if you search youtube for 'Toronto G20 protests', you'll see tons of videos by amateurs on the scene, social media taking over from the journalists, risking their safety at the same time. It's a new phenomena.

I had planned to post this happy recipe, so here it is, anyway. It's for a quick, summery egg salad meal that we recently enjoyed:

6 chopped hard boiled eggs
1 stalk of chopped celery
2 tbs light mayonnaise
1 tsp dijon mustard
1/2 tsp dried basil
salt and pepper

Mix all ingredients in a bowl and serve between slices of whole wheat bread.

  1. Oh, I had totally forgot you live right there. Yes, that is a shame. I suspect many of these protesters that can afford to take the time off work and travel there are themselves living it up from the benefits of capitalism and industry. how many of them, for example, don;t enjoy Apple iPods or iphones, etc, made by one of those very big eveil corps? LOL.
