I’ve been doing yoga for six years, and a lot of my friends don’t get it. It’s boring, they say, and it’s not even that great of a workout. I’ve also been told on more than one occasion that people who do yoga take themselves too seriously. (Clearly they’ve never erupted into a fit of […]

Some call it Dr. Ho’s Challenge: Try to make it out of Dr. Ho’s Humble Pie without entering a food coma. The menu at the popular North Garden restaurant is so loaded with greatness that it’s almost impossible not to over-order. Even if you get past the best pizza in the area, the wings will […]

Even by the looks of them, with their stiff headboard-like designs, detachable springs, and parts that move with ominous squeaks and clanks, they’re not the most inviting of workout equipment. But in the world of fitness, the Pilates apparatus are […]
Fermented things scare a lot of people. Submerged veggies in dubious states of edibility are not exactly as mouthwatering as they may have been in the past, and the staple and tradition of fermented food in the human diet has declined as most of the foods in supermarkets are sterilized, pasteurized, or rendered a-biotic through […]
I got an email this week imploring me to watch a recent segment on “20/20” titled “Is Your Veterinarian Being Honest With You?” If there’s one thing I’ve learned from Stephen Colbert, it’s that headlines consisting of ominous leading questions are always trustworthy, so I was eager to see this fearless foray into the dark underbelly […]
