Cauliflower – a vegetable I grew up with, and wasn’t often thrilled about. Mom you know I love you, but I do not love the way you like most of your veggies cooked. However, on my quest to enjoy more fresh produce this Winter season, I’m giving it a try again.  Cauliflower seems to abound [...]

As a rule, I don’t make New Year’s resolutions. New Year’s resolutions were made to be broken, or worse, completely abandoned. Do you know anyone who has ever actually kept a New Year’s resolution throughout an entire year? I don’t. The problem is that in order to carry out a resolution, there needs to be a certain urgent and necessary motivation to sustain it. Most of us create a resolution at New Year’s because it’s often a time of reflecting on our successes and trials over the past year, and wanting to become better we say we are going to improve ourselves this year through “x”. It all seems well and good, but if you really felt a need to alter your life in some form, would you have waited all the way until New Year’s to make that happen?
