I’m taking a little break in our regular women’s programming to ask you… When’s the last time you talked to your husband, brother, father or any male person about their prostate health? I know its kind of a funny subject, right? We often hear people say I’m on a “heart healthy” diet but I’ve never […]
How to Survive the Holidays Without Gaining Weight
Ho! Ho! Ho! Heidi here. Well, it’s that time again (National Eating Season) and despite my promises to cut the calories and trim the fat, Thanksgiving came and the turkey wasn’t the only thing that ended up stuffed. Ugh! But I know I am not alone. Overeating during the holidays is about as traditional […]
Wild Rice and Almond-Pomegrante Pilaf
Are you thinking about Thanksgiving? As a dietitian and foodie I think about food all the time. Yep, you guessed it…I’m planning out my menu. I am crazy-in-love this holiday because I always have a captive audience to test my new recipes. At our home, you’ll see somewhat traditional fare but lots of new dishes too. […]
The mid 40 slump…How I recharged my sex drive
A few years ago I asked Mr. Hubby if our marriage was everything he thought it would be. He thought for a minute, laughed and replied “Well, I thought we’d have more sex.” I laughed back and said “Well, I thought we’d have more money.” We both gave each other a courtesy laugh, turned out […]

How Toxins Make Us Fat
Hello my friends! Heidi here. How are you? I’m a little sad this week because I’m not fitting into my jeans. Sadly, I’ve gained more weight this year than the last three years combined. Oh, I know stress is a culprit and so are my changing hormones but Stephanie’s post last week got me thinking […]
Sausage with Sauerkraut and Potatoes
Where’s the sausage, sauerkraut and beer? It’s October for goodness sake! Aren’t you in the mood for comfort food? Oktoberfest style! Time to celebrate together. You don’t have to be German. Just grab a couple friends and a six pack of your favorite craft or German beer…and let’s make a traditional, but slightly “better-for- you” version […]
Take a Stress Break
I needed a stress break. Took a vacation from it all and went to Orcas Island! Since its been so flipping hot here in California Eric and I decided to find some Fall. And we found it for one brief week. Cool nights. Red and yellow leaves. It felt so great to wear jeans, a […]
Warm Spinach Salad with Apples and Feta Dressing
Gosh, I love warm spinach salads. How about you? This warm spinach salad is super-duper easy to make and a great side dish to any meat entrée. Mr. E and I already made it twice this month and I’m making it one more time for you! Knowing it was going to be one of those […]
10 Ways to Tame Your Cortisol
Saturday, as Eric and I rode our bikes down the sandy sidewalk in Huntington Beach I saw a sign in a store window that said, “Smile—it’s good stress relief and makes you happier.” So I smiled. I smiled at Eric. I smiled at the little boy who ran right in front of my bike, and […]
