I can’t think of an organization doing more important work in protecting
our environment than Greenpeace. They bring attention to the issues no wants us to talk about…they
work hard to protect our air, water and earth. They work hard to ensure that our
planet isn’t a casualty of corporate greed. I have been a member of this splendid organization
since I was 18 years old and highly recommend that you visit their site for an eye-opening
education about what’s being done to our fragile planet…and what you can do
to help.

I was never attracted to cruises really. I had never been on one, but had
decided that I didn't like them. Then the fine folks at A Taste of Health called and invited me
to teach and lecture aboard their first Holistic Holiday At Sea. I dreaded it. But off I went!
And boy, oh boy was I ever surprised. What a wonderful experience!
The accommodations were lovely; the staff professional; the food elegant and
yummy; the classes and seminars informative and fun; the ports of call were gorgeous.
I taught and had a wonderful time great fun and great people. It was a blast. Okay, okay, so
I was wrong about cruises.

Seven years ago, when I was beginning production on my first season of Christina
Cooks, I decided that I didn't want to 'populate' my set with just any old cookware
and utensils. So I went to a craft show to see what caught my eye. I wandered the aisles, drooling
over dishes, platters, bowls and glassware, but what bowled me over most were spoons.
Yes, spoons. I walked up to a stall filled with the most exquisite, creative,
whimsical, absolutely beautiful wooden spoons I had ever seen. I struck up a conversation
with the creator, Jonathan Simons, a fellow redhead and the next thing I knew, Jonathan
was working with me to create spoons for my television series.Since that day, both on
and off the set of the show, I have used nothing but spoons and other utensils from Jonathan's
Spoons.

Every once in a while, something so special crosses my desk that I just have
to tell you about it. About a year ago, someone gave me a small and exquisitely beautiful
cookbook for my birthday called 'Love, Eric'. It was filled with delightful macrobiotic
desserts that were as delicious as they were easy to make. The book became a reference for
a lot of my dessert creations. Eric Lechasseur discovered macrobiotics when his wife,
Sanae was challenged with cancer and they used food to heal her condition...successfully.
Eric then turned his professional chef gifts to creating delicious macrobiotic
cuisine, as well as building a business of healing and joy with Sanae. They have since published
a second cookbook, 'Love, Eric and Sanae,' filled with savory, seasonal, delicious
recipes that will delight your palate. After many months of emailing, my husband and
I finally met Eric and Sanae and another great friendship has been born. Please treat yourself...to
a book, a retreat, a seminar...or just a recipe...

I met Susan Morano 20 years ago at a natural foods convention. She was doing
what she does best, convince people that brown rice syrup is one of the greatest natural
sweeteners ever, (used in place of processed white sugar) I paid attention, tried her
products and have never used another brown rice syrup since! With a full line of natural sweeteners,
fruit spreads and other yummy products, Susan and her merry crew never stop creating
food products the way Mother Nature intended.
