Number one I hope you and your family and friends and loved ones are doing well and you're safe and healthy and happy during this very

It includes the word cancer. It includes the word carcinogen, I will let you

listen to find out what other words it includes.

It's fascinating to see all of the animal related words and expressions we have in our English language and I hope you enjoy

that episode.

The other thing I wanted to let you know about is I am teaching an online cooking class.

This is bringing me back to the days

when I taught cooking classes 10 years ago

in Oakland in person, and I taught them for 10 years.

Many of my recipes in my cookbooks are from my beloved cooking classes and I'm

bringing them back but we're doing it online. I am quite aware that people need tools

and resources and the skills to be able to cook healthfully and

compassionally all the time and especially at this time when we're all dealing

with this is an opportunity

is an opportunity to learn some delicious.

And so this is an opportunity

to learn some delicious nutritious recipes.

I am starting off with recipes that are specific for

spring and Easter and Passover. So join me if you go to Colleen Patrick
