As most of you know, Kristin recently self-published her 1st cookbook  “Therapeutic Chef:  Recipes to Prevent Cancer, Heart Disease and Diabetes.” – available via Amazon.  While the title may sound a bit intense, I assure you that this book is for everyone, regardless of whether you’re trying to prevent illness or not.  I have eaten the vast majority of these recipes and can say that beyond their therapeutic healthy value – they are all extremely tasty and satisfying – whether you’re a vegetarian or not.

I recently finished going through the book myself and thought that I should post a few of the pages that I think make this book so valuable.  I will also include a few recipes that are in the book that you can try out, as well as some pages and recipes names of other personal favorites.  Hope you enjoy!

I was recently hanging out with @kevinrose and after a few beverages, he pulled up the AT&T voicemail message website. For the next hour, we played around with different messages, trying to compete for who could come up with the worst message that would annoy people calling to the point where they’d not want to leave a message. It was funny for awhile, but since I use my cell phone as a business phone as well, I finally had to pull it since I feared that potential clients might get confused and then not leave any message or contact info.
Anyway, here’s the site for you playing pleasure. Please feel free to post what you come up with here – or, as mentioned in the last diggnation episode, email your masterpieces to:  fans@diggnation.com
