February 6, 2011

Wanna know what Slow is? You're sitting here on the beach for a week. You think your life is in super slow motion. Then you see this guy and you think, OK, I guess I need another day or two to really slow down. Take a minute for a life-long lesson. Just Press Play.nn

Juicy Fruit

February 5, 2011

Rich, juicy papaya and tart, spicy lime juice. An amazing two-ingredient fruit ceviche. Three days' worth of Vitamin C and a day's of Vitamin A. Near-zero glycemic load. 110 calories. C'mon, that's ten minutes of touch football.

Jasmine Rice for the Lunar Year

February 1, 2011

This is a great way to make a meal. You do next to nothing. Cook the vegetables right in the pan with the grains. It's all in the timing. $2 per person. Fragrant, delicious, satisfying. Satisfies more than your daily need for Vitamin C.

Don’t hold your breath

January 29, 2011

For a few seconds, I stop breathing whenever I see one. When a humpback surfaces, it's breathtaking. For both of us. So I thought you'd enjoy a quick look at a deep breath before a long, slow dive into the deep. Try it before you dive into the day.

Polenta Portobello Pizza

January 27, 2011

Good lookin'. Easy cookin'. For a beautiful dish, this has to be the easiest, quickest, cheapest thing going. Delicious, too. Whole grain corn and a big, meaty mushroom. Required skills: stirring, slicing. Not much of either.

Don’t Just Sit There. Take a dip.

Slower Sunday: In a breeze

January 23, 2011

Watching the palms sway is like watching the waves break. A million little visible details. Way too complicated to describe. I could watch for hours. Actually, I am watching. For hours. Vacation time. The Big Island. Slower Central. I feel acclimated. Already.
