Preparing
for Winter
By Robin Arnold
The
arrival of November means that winter is not far off. We fill our propane tanks
or chop our firewood…maybe buy a new winter coat and a pair of warm mittens.
Some of us pack up and head south for the winter. The rest of us weatherproof
our windows and doors, check our furnaces and snow blowers, and go on about our
daily routines.

You might want to
think twice before you pull up that bouquet of milkweed on the edge of your
lawn—it’s the food plant for the caterpillar of one of the most familiar
butterflies in our area: the Monarch butterfly.

Wolfgang Puck's Kitchen: Keeping Boneless Chicken Breasts Moist and Flavorful
By Wolfgang Puck
Even the most creative, artistic chef's creation usually happens for a smart culinary reason. One of the best examples I know of that fact is a chicken breast recipe I developed when I first opened Spago on Hollywood's Sunset Strip back in 1982, a dish that still holds up and tastes just as fresh and delicious today.

The family cruise was a success, and we're all home safe, sound, and full of sun, sand, and gourmet food. It was a treat anyway not to have to cook for two weeks, but as those of you who have cruised before know, the food is usually fabulous.
I tried Chilean Sea Bass with Caviar Sauce. The flavor was out of this world. Our son Chuck told us that meal would be close to $100 in a good restaurant. Chuck earned his way through college as a waiter at Real Seafood in Ann Arbor, so he knows good food. I also had broiled orange roughy which was also an excellent meal.

Heart to Heartbeat
Heart to Heartbeat

When's the last time you've been thanked for being a good parent? I've just recently entered the world of parenting, but I've quickly found out that it's an awesome, raw, demanding, no-thanks kind of job. You alone (well, and your kids too) know the ups and downs you've had as a parent. It's a learn-as-you-go job. No one really has a manual or someone coaching them in how to do it. So I just want to take a moment to share with you some encouragement, even though I don't know you personally, that you as a parent are doing a great job!
