Slower Sunday: Thanks for the memories
Yellow's not my favorite color, but when this happens each year I really get why the happy face symbol is always colored yellow. Makes me happy. The forsythia, not the emoji.
Mock Turtle Soup. Did you ever wonder?
A beef broth with root vegetables like turnips and carrots. A rich beef stock spiked with sherry vinegar and allspice. Very light and very satisfying. Two days worth of Vitamin A and a day's worth of Vitamin C. So what's the turtle story?
Hanakoa Falls. Wetter. Farther. Slower.
And Better. 13 miles of mud. Slippery, shiny, exhilarating mud. Whenever you want to make any walk or run more challenging, do it in mud. You can pretty much count on mud when you hike the legendary Kalalau Trail. Hike now. Wash your feet later.
Luscious Vegan Moussaka. Seriously.
Crisp, buttery potatoes. Rich, melting eggplant. A creamy no-cream sauce. And a luscious spiced tomato chickpea blend instead of the traditional ground lamb. A seriously delicious Way to get a high-protein vegetarian dish into your diet.
Bowl of Beans and Beets. Vegan Borscht.
Replace the classic beef soup stock with bean "pot liquor" aka bean soup. Delicious. Rich. Aromatic. Even better than the classic. More flavorful. Sweetness and earthiness from the beans and the beets.
Pizzoccheri celebrates chard in the Alps
A hearty, hugely tasty serving of pasta, vegetables and cheese. Think of it as an Alpine vegetable lasagna. With a lot of protein, 100% of your daily Vitamins A and C and calcium. A pasta you never heard of and a Way to learn to love Swiss Chard.

Slower Sunday: Goin’ down
Dramatic. And loud. Completely mesmerizing in that sheer-force-of-nature kinda Way. So much power, but so little danger. Good place to be on a Sunday.
St. Patrick’s Day Hit Parade
This is the week to eat Irish and eat seasonal. You may want to say tomato, but you still have to eat potato. Which is a perfectly good place to start when you want to eat well. Delicious and nutritious when you make them right. No blarney.
The Walk That Ate Granada
See all the Granada countryside from the 14th century Alhambra hilltop fortress. And see it from everywhere along your 13-mile Walk. Local fruit, cheese and bread for breakfast. Tapas for lunch. Herb-roasted lamb for dinner. Burn 1,000 more calories than you swallow.
