Four shares:

1. I borrowed Andrew E. Budson's, "Why We Forget & How to Remember BETTER" book from my amazing local library system recently! Thanks so much for recommending it. Not the typical "aging brain" kind of book, but, one filled with actionable memory tips, & reassuring science on how we remember, & what changes as we age. A WINNER!

2. Just made your Cranberry Bean & Sausage Stew AGAIN--IT'S SO GOOD!! But THIS TIME, I instead of using a higher sat fat & sodium plant-based sausage I used Bilinski's Organic Spicy Italian Sausage! And I haven't eaten any poultry for 15 years. Low fat, low sat fat & DELICIOUS!

3. Since you're going to be in Colorado--check out a local source for the "new" non-meat, real food made from mushroom roots, called Meati. My son picked up a couple packages while in CO & we taste-tested the "beef" cutlet. Seriously, it tasted just like flank steak. It's a very unique product with none of the usual junk ingredients.

4. I use soy or almond milk for cooking, but when it comes to yogurt or kefir I'm all for the organic, low-fat or non-fat REAL DAIRY Greek yogurts or organic kefirs. The plant versions offer minimal calcium or protein. I just don't see the point of them nutritionally, except for the ethical vegan reasons. I'm lactose intolerant & fermented dairy doesn't cause me any GI distress that a glass of milk would. Just my opinion.

Thanks for all the info you share!

Here for ALL the brain health things, but really enjoy the recipes. Maybe some that are geared towards week nights, 30 min or less. Thank you for all you do!
