I drive down the road with the windows rolled down listening to the Tina Turner song, “What’s love got to do with it.” I turn up the radio, sing along. This song plays through my mind all day. Life is busy. We can find ourselves tired, burned out and at risk for health problems. I think of Hippocrates’s quote, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” Now, after listening to Tina Turner, I ask the question: “What’s […]
New Jersey… I’m not mad… I’m disappointed. You’re at the top of your game on many things. You have some of the best colleges in the world, you apparently rank high in happiness though some of us doubt that, and you’ve made great strides in women’s healthcare.

Quite a few times, as I recall, I complained and voiced my dislike for cabbage but she would insist that I eat every morsel. Over time, I grew to like cabbage and now, whenever I am preparing for a show, I consume it almost daily as part of my diet, since I prefer that fibre […]

For some, it started with Sunday school. For me, it started with Sunday brunch. When I was a teenager, I went to my first Sunday brunch at a hotel restaurant. It was an all-you-can-eat buffet, and I was instantly hooked. In fact, that may have been the moment when I became a “foodie” (even though that term had not been invented yet). From that point on, my eyes lit up whenever I heard the word “buffet.” I mean, it’s a […]
