My Food Style (emphasis on 'My') →

When you find out that you have Interstitial Cystitis, the first thing to go is all the delicious foods that you have come to love and depend on your whole damn life. Myfoodstyle.com is a website that I was introduced to recently that was created by a chef who decided to take on the challenge of making the IC diet a little more bearable. His website is full of recipes, cooking tips, and advice. Considering that he does not have IC and that, to my knowledge, he isn’t even close with anyone who has it, it’s pretty awesome that he’s decided to dedicate his time to helping those of us who do!

With the Food & Wine portion of the Florida Film Festival just around the corner, all I have been doing lately is trying to work with chefs and plan food-centric events. It has really tested my patience and I think part of why (besides the fact that chefs have no sense of urgency or organizational skills) is because I have such a limited diet and don’t want to have to think about food nearly as much as I have had to lately. It seems like a big old waste of time to me and I can’t understand why anyone would bother getting so excited about food when it can all just be taken away from you so easily. Obviously these are thoughts bred from a strange kind of jealousy mixed with being just plain fed up with my job. Nonetheless, I think it’s really amazing that Chef Daniel has taken on this challenging project. Maybe it will help me become a little less bitter. Or at least a little less hungry.

Howard Zinn's Dies at 87 →

Joey just told me that Howard Zinn died of a heart attack and my own heart instantly dropped. I’ve actually thought about the moment I would hear that he died before and how much grief I would feel. I never did get the chance to meet him or hear him speak in person (which was a goal of mine since my undergraduate days). I’ll have to take this as yet another reminder not to stray too far from my dreams and to keep doing good, whenever and wherever I can.

R.I.P. Howard Zinn (although I know you won’t until the world becomes a more peaceful place for the rest of us).
