The first week of the the âGreatest Elective on Earthâ, Culinary Medicine, was a success despite the weather. Students did a recipe creation activity (salmon burgers), cooked low carb, and learned about the Four Pastas of Rome. We also launched our âDishes Important to Placeâ activity.

I fully recognize the world is on fire. And I am very superstitious, constantly worrying that if I talk about anything good, bad things will follow. Iâm going to put aside that fear to talk about this book I wrote with my long-term colleagues Dara Garner-Edwards and Melissa Moses.
