Bonus Article: Beautiful From the Inside Out This evening, I had the opportunity to be a judge in a high school Pageant that awarded college scholarships, and it proved to be a huge eye opener for me. Throughout the interview process, swimwear competition and evening gown finale, it was amazing to me to see how some were so unsure of themselves, and others were beautiful from the inside out. It got me thinking, how in the world can some of these young ladies differ so much in confidence at the tender age of 18? Everyone obviously has a different upbringing, but how they actually feel about themselves is totally up to them. We have all heard of numerous stories of kids growing up that were told they were not going to amount to anything in life, and they still overcame great odds and were hugely successful as an adult. So my conclusion is that it is not so much the external influences, but the internal influences. What do I mean by this? I think you are the only one who can establish yourself as being beautiful from the inside out. Think about it-how many times have you received a compliment and you said, "Oh, no, that's not really true, I actually looked horrible in that picture"...? If this is what you are saying out loud to others, what are you saying to yourself? Or have you noticed a person that is not exactly the next Victoria's Secret model, but just seems so enviously confident in her own skin? What's going on inside her head? Is it possible that she has a different internal dialogue? Does she, perhaps, lift herself up, take steps when she is afraid, and is gentle with herself when she makes a mistake? I am guessing that a lot of you are not this way with yourself, or could definitely make an improvement. Figuring out why some people navigate this world with purpose and self-worth, and others just meander along is always going to be a life long mystery. However, I challenge you to examine your own self-esteem and self-image. How do you feel about yourself? When others give you a compliment, what do you say? When you look in the mirror, how do you feel about your body? Even if you feel you are a hard worker, a good family member, and a nice person-do you feel you are living life to the fullest? Be honest. If not, let's go through this journey together to figure out how we can get you to where you need to be. It is possible-I promise. When I was in my teens and early 20's, I really struggled with a positive self-image. I looked okay on the outside, but the inside of me was always in turmoil with external feedback. It wasn't until I was able to take some steps to learn to love myself, let go of perfectionism, and really embrace who I was that I became truly happy. It's really strange, but once I was able to just accept who I was, I felt free. I felt as if all the pressure was released off of my shoulders, and I could just be myself. Can you imagine how this feels? It's pretty fantastic. And I really desire this for you as well. I want you to know that you are truly beautiful from the inside out, but it is up to you to accept this. Please do, because you deserve to. Having a positive relationship with yourself impacts every aspect of your life. With a bit of determination, I know you can get there too.

Betty's Beef and Cheese Tacos
In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make Beef and Cheese Tacos. These tacos are composed of crisp taco shells filled with a picante-flavored meat sauce, covered by a blend of cheese and sour cream, and then topped with lettuce and tomato, served with assorted side accompaniments. YUM!
Ingredients:
1 pound lean ground beef
½ large green bell pepper, chopped
8-oz. jar picante sauce (or use 8-oz. homemade Perky Picante Sauce from bettyskitchen)
1/3 cup plain yogurt (You may substitute 1/3 cup mayonnaise, if you prefer.)
8-oz. container sour cream
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
shredded lettuce and chopped tomatoes for toppings
sour cream with pickled jalapeno slices and guacamole for accompaniments (You will find a recipe for South of the Border Guacamole in bettyskitchen.)
12 fresh yellow corn taco shells
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown 1 pound ground beef and ½ chopped large green pepper, until beef is crumbly and no longer pink. Remove from heat and drain any excess fat. Stir in 8-oz. picante sauce and set aside. In a medium-sized bowl, stir together 1/3 cup plain yogurt, an 8-oz. container of sour cream, and 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese and set aside. Now, fill your taco shells as follows: place 1/12 of the meat and green pepper mixture in the bottom of a taco shell. Spoon 1/12 of the cheese and sour cream mixture over the top. Place in a shallow baking pan, upright. Use a nonstick pan, or spray the pan with cooking oil spray. Continue filling the taco shells until all 12 of them are filled, and the meat and green pepper mixture and the cheese and sour cream mixture are completely used. Place aluminum foil over the pan of tacos to prevent the tops from over-browning. Bake at 375 degrees (F) for 10 to 15 minutes, and then remove the aluminum foil and bake or broil about 5 minutes longer, until lightly browned. (You should check the tacos while they are in the oven to make sure they don't get over-done.) Remove from oven, and serve tacos immediately. These tacos are nice when served on a plate containing shredded lettuce and chopped tomatoes, which can be used as toppings for the tacos. Sour cream with pickled jalapenos and guacamole are great accompaniments. You can also serve any leftover picante sauce alongside. I hope you enjoy these Beef and Cheese Tacos! Love, Betty

20110522《大愛全紀錄》幸福餐桌
全球化糧食危機來勢洶洶；行政院於今年二月曾向國人提出「每天多吃一碗飯」的呼籲，希望每年每人增加一公斤的白米消費量，以提高糧食自給率。台灣曾在水稻育種和栽培上有過輝煌的貢獻，甚至曾經解救過全球糧荒危機；但是，現在我們的餐桌上，米飯幾乎變成肥胖的代名詞，三餐的主食反倒以澱粉為主。糧荒時代的來臨，除了糧價高漲外，萬一全球小麥禁運怎麼辦？我們是不是應該改變我們的飲食習慣？
