One of the most rewarding things I do in my clinic happens on my iPhone. When I sit down with a middle aged patient to talk about their cardiovascular risk, I open the risk calculator created by the American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology. I talk my way through as I enter […] […]

That recipe card looks well used. And I read the recipe for the pumpkin pie. I found it’s actually not too unhealthy. No added lard. Just the fat that is in the piecrust and the evaporated milk. And not that much sugar considering you’re making an entire pie with that amount.

Yes. The photo was taken a few weeks ago in Lake Conroe TX at our niece’s wedding. The Boss and I are rarely dressed up so this picture is a keeper. Our niece and her husband are stopping over for T-Day and will continue their trek on Friday to have T-Day with his family at the grandparent’s place in Wichita KS. Our brother-in-law (not the father of this niece) is also up from TX. So we’ll have five adults and one Aussie today. The dog bowls are already out and I have TREATS.
