In addition from providing some nice flavor, turmeric has anti-inflammatory properties! The next time you're fighting off a cold-bug, or a soft-tissue injury, add some to your dinner, lunch or even your smoothie! (I tried the latter this morning with my pumpkin smoothie and it was quite tasty!) Once again, another example of how food […]

I've written about how much I LOVE coconut oil- here's yet another time it comes in handy…. as a hair deep-conditioner! I'm certainly not one to take the cheap way out when it comes to ANYTHING related to taking care of the body, including getting regular massage, (obviously) putting only high quality food in and […]

I will admit that I was not initially that keen on eating an oyster. No particular reason; I just thought they looked unappealing and seemed to be a vehicle for a plethora of toppings. I was WRONG! My reason for giving them another go, however, was not for any gastronomic reason. Last year, after […]

I've written about this before, but for some reason, many people seem to be a bit overwhelmed or daunted by the idea of bringing food on the plane. What's the alternative, though?

For a visually-pleasing (not to mention gastronomically) way to serve your veg, try the julienne slice! If you have a mandolin, it makes it easier, but if you don't you can still cut your veg into matchsticks with a good kitchen knife. I like using this cut for carrots & zucchini in particular.
