2008 2015 Just a little reminder about how time flies! My husband started making gingerbread houses with the grandchildren when they very small and the tradition has endured. Brandon is 19 now and home from college. They stayed to help decorate our tree after finishing their creations. Yes, that’s an octopus on top of Brandon’s house. And no, they are not low-carb. Dean loves to play Santa and I try not to be too much of a Grinch. Wishing you the very best for the…
The International Food Bloggers Conference has come and gone and I’m just now getting around to posting my wrap up. Dorie Greenspan, the soft spoken and delightful author of Around My French Table and food blogger extraordinaire, was the keynote speaker. Her message was, “Say yes and follow your dream,” even to the things that terrify you, “always say yes.” We had to make difficult decisions about which of the many wonderful sessions to attend; there were food tastings and lectures and demos on food photography, story telling, cooking, and technical subjects…
IFBC, The International Food Blogger’s Conference for bloggers, food writers, cookbook authors, publishers, agents, editors, food brand and restaurant marketers, and public relations professionals, is coming to Seattle in September. I’ve never been to a blogger’s conference before, my usual method of operation is to do something first and learn how later, but this is the biggie and it’s coming to me! I signed up just in time ~ the very next day they announced that they were sold out. If any of you are interested in coming, you can put your…

I had a quick spot on the McIntyre In the Morning Show on KABC Los Angeles this morning to talk about this recent news story that links carbs to violent behavior: http://boston.cbslocal.com/2013/03/15/experts-say-food-may-contribute-to-anger-violent-behavior. You might have heard me if you live in Southern California. If not, they sent me a link to the segment so I could post it here. It’s great fun to talk to Doug, even though I don’t always get to finish a thought ~ the story is always just a set-up for the…
From Dr. Richard Feinman, 3:16 pm May 22: This is the YouTube of my debate with Judy Wylie-Rosett at Downstate. The students felt she did not answer my objections and, unfortunately we did not get usable questions from the audience so it probably was not exactly a debate but it is good that she was willing to engage in some kind of dialogue and the discussion will continue. http://youtu.be/q2paIsPfgmMhttp://www.youom/watch?v=q2paIsPfgmM7be
We had a very large group on the low-carb cruise this year; I’m not sure what the actual count was, I heard it was 275, but that may have included a few who never actually made it. We made national news when one of our speakers was removed from the ship before it left the dock. My daughter here in Washington knew more about it than I did until I got home. Dr. Jack Kruse was taken away by the authorities after someone Tweeted a message using his name that said…
