Recipe of the Day – Mango Pear Salsa

A great, fruity alternative to the regular old tomato salsa. Feel free to mix up the ingredients, adding your own twist.
Recipe:
1 Large Mango, diced
1 Large Pear, diced
½ large medium red onion, chopped finely
1 Thai Chile, minced
1 small cucumber, diced
2 Tablespoons of chopped cilantro
3 Tablespoons of fresh lime juice

Sprinkle lime juice on the diced pear to prevent browning. Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Chill for 2 hours, and then serve. Goes great with wheat tortilla chips.

Obituary of the Day - Joseph Barbera 1911-2006

His cartoons; I grew up with them, you grew up with them our parents grew up with them, our kids will grow up with them. From Yabba Dabba Doo to Scooby Dooby Doo to the wonderful works of art that was Tom and Jerry. During the 1960's the Hanna Barbera cartoons, all hand painted, old fashioned cell animation, were reaching a worldwide audience of 300 million. Just think about it, Scooby Doo, The Jetsons, Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, The Smurfs, Dastardly and Muttley, Josie and the Pussycats, Tom and Jerry, Top Cat and Captain Caveman. And that's just some of them.
