I made this pie this weekend to celebrate The Kind Diet hitting #1 on The New York Times Bestsellers list. Looks like whole foods, veganism and macrobiotics are coming out of the closet!
The recipe is by Eric LeChasseur, from his book, Love, Eric. He’s also the owner of Seed Kitchen, in Venice, California.

First things first. I’m really happy to report that, thanks to Oprah Winfrey, The Kind Diet has been helping lots of people. Here’s a link to see some cooking videos starring Alicia and Laura Linney!
Second, here’s an interview I did at newnaturalista.com. It’s a really cool site.
THIRD… I want to give everyone time to make [...]

I’ve been in bed most of this week. I was felled by a sinus infection and it decided that my bed was the safest, comfiest, snottiest place to rest my painful head. I’m just pulling out now, but I’d like to share some some interesting discoveries:
I found something this week you might want to look [...]

So yeah, I’m basically a movie star now. No biggie. It feels fine. I don’t have paparazzi at my doorstep (yet)… I haven’t signed an autograph (yet)… and my apartment still awaits its ‘Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous’ renovation, but hey, those are just details.
I was asked by some friends to play a part [...]

To tell the truth, my life is already half-vacation. As a self-employed person, I pretty much make my own rules, and as a hypnotherapist, I have a tendency to go DEEP into relaxation, especially at work! But this semi-retirement has a flipside; while my regular life might seem relaxed to many, I don’t really know [...]

I spent this past weekend in Santa Barbara, California, at the annual Health Classic. It’s a gathering of West Coast macrobiotic teachers and personalities sharing their knowledge and strengthening their practices.
Of course, it made me want to barf . Well, at first. You see, I always find stepping back into the fold an ego-threatening experience. [...]

First, some blagging. That’s blogging x bragging. As a self-employed person, please indulge me:
My first blag is that The Kind Diet, by Alicia Silverstone (co-written by Yours Truly) hit the New York Times Bestsellers List in the category of Hardcover Advice this past week. Yaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!! Click here to get your copy and ten more [...]

So, my niece finally called. She took her time, busting a hole in the amniotic sac first, and giving us almost a full day to assemble ourselves before kicking off some contractions. All in all, it was a safe, healthy, un-medicated birth which brought my newest niece into the world. Yay!
But even the easiest birth [...]

So I’m in Toronto, on Baby Watch. This means that I have bought a throw-away cell phone, like a drug dealer, only because AT&T has cut such a lousy deal with Canada on the iphone that it is STEWPID to do otherwise. That’s probably why the drug dealers buy them too!
Anyway, I’ve got this phone, [...]

Weird day. Thought I would be on a plane by noon, but in a moment of “sometimes abundance sucks” took my WRONG passport. You see, I am a Canerican… both Canuck and Yank, and I guess I just pulled my Canadian passport off the shelf this morning. No biggie, you say, Canadians are still welcome [...]
