When I think of CPK (California Pizza Kitchen), I think back to college, back to the days when I first moved to LA and relished the opportunity to enjoy what I recall was one of their signature dishes- their chopped BBQ salad or one of their veggie-themed pizzas. I was 19, on a college budget and […]
Read More ›This was the tragic subject line on an email I received this morning from the American College of Sports Medicine, the largest sports medicine and exercise science organization in the world that advances and integrates scientific research to provide educational and practical applications of exercise science and sports medicine. In other words, it’s one of the most […]

Per their site, “Our summit intends to not only shine a light on the work of professionals evolving to solve the modern epidemics of chronic disease, such as Type 2 […]
Read More ›A colleague emailed me the other day to share a fun discovery he’d made for a handy kitchen tool to make ‘noodles’. I almost hesitate to call them that, for fear that someone might read a recipe and think I’m suggesting a Paleo-ish version of pasta made with almond flour. I’m not. Rather, I’m writing […]
