Swiss Chard Fills the Holes in Your Diet
I crave greens, no matter the season. When it is cold outside, I often choose a cooked green over salads. I just want to eat warm food.
Another Way to Go Green: Escarole
When I was little I thought salad came in two forms: iceberg and spinach. In those day I wasn't particularly a fan of either. Times have changed and I am all about greens — even cooked ones.
In Praise of: The Avocado
I really do love avocados. I might even marry one, that is how deeply I adore this veggie, or technically fruit - but an avocado in any other category would still be just as creamy and delish.
Spring is the season when avocados are at their peak, but since they are grown in California (primarily Hass variety) and Florida (mostly Fuerte) there is usually a decent supply all year round.
Garden Peas, Please
Peas...you either love 'em or hate 'em. But have you ever had FRESH peas? As in not frozen and not canned?
The Beauty of Asparagus
I can always tell when asparagus season is starting...usually in mid February, prices for the veggie start to slowly creep downwards. Now, the season is in full swing - I just had some incredible tandoori asparagus at my favorite Indian restaurant. YUM!!!
Know Your A, B, C's: Vitamin K
For a long time I was confused about Vitamin K — particularly its relationship to Special K the cereal. Plus, I wasn't really sure what the vitamin did for the human body. Basically I thought vitamins stopped at the letter E, so this one sounded fake.

Why Do I Bruise So Easily?
Why is it that I can get the slightest bump and the next day, I've got a huge bruise? Sometimes bruises show up and I don't even remember hurting myself.
A bruise develops when small blood vessels under the skin tear or rupture.
