While I was in the kitchen stirring grits and pulling pork for this week's recipes, my toes were tapping and my hips were shaking to these all-time great dance tunes made in Memphis. If getting motivated to exercise is a problem, here's my solution: music you can't not dance to.

It's U. S. National Park Week. If you can't get away this week, you can dream and plan. Start with Yellowstone. Scores of trails. Mountains, canyons, rivers, forests, meadows, plains, geysers and buffalo.

The “French paradox”: How can they eat all that rich food and drink all that wine -- and have dramatically lower rates of obesity, heart disease and diabetes than Americans? Maybe it's the low glycemic load of all that traditional food and wine.

Even if you're not diabetic. Because without the right diet and some exercise, you're pre-diabetic. We all are. So please give me three minutes of your time. I'll keep this short and sweet and I won't sugar-coat it.
