Mused after reading that the second-longest consecutive running sporting event is the Westminster Kennel Club show. The longest? The Kentucky Derby.
Corn Tip: Stanley Tucci butters his corn after he salts it, butters a piece of bread, and uses the bread to wrap around the corn and butter it. It gives flavor to both bread and corn. Recommends using Vermont Butter for its higher fat/flavor content.

STRESS!!! WE ALL HAVE IT. HOW TO HELP CONTROL IT BY A STRESS PHYSIOLOGIST. By Rebecca Heiss.
“In the self-help field, we tend to promote the usual stress-management arsenal: meditation apps, massage therapy, breathing exercises, yoga classes. These aren’t wrong, but they rely on the individual to solve their own stress. These tools can sometimes exacerbate the problem.”
“A study of workplace interventions to reduce stress revealed a startling truth: of the 90 different stress-reduction strategies tested in corporate settings, only one consistently mitigated the negative effects of stress: serving others.”
(Did You Know? Surgeon=stress, small business owner=stress. Personally, I subscribe to the 3 F’s (family, faith, friends) as well as exercise, etc., to handle stress. But I’ve found that when life is the hardest, spending more time discussing the personal lives of my patients is what helps the most. We’re all in this thing called life, together.)
“My luggage crisis (lost luggage before a big presentation) helped me see that instead of turning inward, we do best when we turn outward-toward the needs of others. In a world obsessed with self-optimization and individual wellness solutions, the most radical act might be the simplest one: noticing when someone else needs help, and then providing it.”
Try doing something good for another without expecting anything in return. Pass it on!
LA DOLCE VITA, JOIE DE VIVRE:
Let’s try to make healthier nachos, Mexican style.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Take baked chips and spread on a foil lined cookie sheet. Cover with pre-roasted chicken breasts in bite size pieces. Rinse and add ½ can of black beans and ½ can of mild green chilis. Fire-roasted corn from the freezer section at Kroger can be sprinkled on top. Follow with Mexican cheese blend. Bake 15-20 minutes for warming ingredients and melting cheese. Top with salsa, Pico de Gallo, Greek yogurt, guacamole, mild banana pepper rings, and cotija cheese.
(Bonus: what to do with leftover nachos. In a pot, I sauteed onions, celery, carrots, then added the dark meat from the roasted chicken, 32 ounces of chicken stock, and the leftover nachos. After 10-15 minutes of simmering, add ½ bag of noodles. Salt and pepper to flavor, and you have chicken noodle soup with a Mexican flavor.)
