Egg Foo Yung. Chinese New Year Omelet

January 26, 2012
Dick Sandhaus

A perfect meal in a pan. A great Way to use the always seasonal, local and same-day fresh eggs from the Farmers Market. A few minutes of chopping and stirring. Five minutes of tending. One suspenseful second of flipping.

A wonderful winter soup you make in a few minutes. Rich but light. Nourishing and deeply flavorful. Less than $1 for two servings. Your Chinese New Year resolution.

It's not authentic anything, but it tastes great. A soy-sesame cabbage slaw with ham and spicy mustard on a pizza crust. $1.50 for the whole thing. Happy New Year.

Slower Sunday: What’s that sound?

Dick Sandhaus

Take a 90-second vacation. Sounds like a faster vacation, not a Slower one. But it's a nice, slow minute and a half. A good Sunday pace. Listen with me. Just Press Play.

But first you have to stroll across Ke'e Beach. And then you have to hike the Kalalau Trail, hanging 200' above the brilliant blue Pacific. It's tough hiking here on the Hawaiian island of Kaua'i.

Rosemary-Garlic-Potato Pizza

There are dozens of regional versions of potato pizza in Italy. So it's strange that you never see it here in the U.S. Especially when potatoes are one of the few "seasonal" vegetables available. Not just a great $2 pizza. A great pizza, period.

Before you know it, it’s time to plant.

Time for your inner farmer. Time to decide what you're planting and growing this Spring. And time to make the big mid-Winter decision. Start from seed? Or wait for a jump-started little plant from the local nursery or Farmers Market?

Don’t Just Sit There: Shoulder Stretch

January 16, 2012
Dick Sandhaus

Even if you exercise vigorously for an hour every day - too much sitting significantly increases your risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity. So when you're in front of your TV or computer, do this - or something like it - for a minute, every hour or two.

Tomato Swirl Cornbread

Could be winter's solution to the corn and tomato problem. When you can't get the sweet, fresh stuff, use the sweet preserved stuff. Great versions of cornmeal and canned tomatoes.
