“How We Die”
We rarely go gentle into that good night.
Several weeks ago while listening to “Fresh Air” on NPR, the topic was Sherwin Nuland – a surgeon, writer, and educator who died on March 3, 2014 at 83 years old. Nuland was the author of How We Die, an informative and groundbreaking book that describes death in both its clinical and biological terms in such a way that the reader doesn’t have to have a medical degree to understand the process. Published in 1994, How We Die won the National Book Award and was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. Read more 
Boys-Only Golf Clubs
With the Master’s Tournament taking place at the Augusta National Golf Club this week, the conversation surrounding boys-only golf clubs is heating up again. Although Augusta left the dark ages and officially joined the modern world by inviting two females (Condoleezza Rice and Darla Moore) in August, 2012 to join its estimated 300 member male base, some say Augusta still has a long way to go. After all, women represent less than 1 percent of club membership at the well-known Georgian golf club. Read more
Single Serve Nuttzo Packets
For quite some time, fans of Nuttzo have been waiting for the company to start selling single serve packets of their super delicious and incredibly nutritious nut and seed spread. Made of seven organic nuts and roasted seeds with a touch of sea salt, the Original, Peanut Free, and the Dark Chocolate Nuttzo have only been available in 16 ounce jars, which are great for home use but impractical for travel or as a to-go snack. So, when the company recently announced the roll out of single serve packets, Nuttzo fans (or Nuttzo fanatics as we are referred to) rejoiced.
Treeline Cheese
Treeline Cheese is a totally dairy-free line of cheese that actually tastes scrumptious, rich and creamy like “real” cheese. Made of pure, wholesome raw cashew nuts, acidophilus culture (a species of bacteria that ferments), salt and pepper, Treeline Cheese makes four types of cheese: Classic, Cracked Pepper, Scallion, and Herb-Garlic.
Seedsters
Seedsters are sprouted seed snacks made from organic sprouted flax, chia, and sunflower seeds: three seeds packed with protein, fiber, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals. Conceived and manufactured by Doctor in the Kitchen out of Minneapolis, Minnesota, Seedsters are organic, non-GMO, gluten-free, vegan, raw, and nut-free. Crunchy and delicious, Seedsters can be sweet, savory, or a little bit of both depending on the variety: Cinnamon and Currants (my favorite), Sea Salt and Black Pepper, Sweet Onion and Garlic, and Sweet and Smoky Barbecue.
