Who doesn’t love a courgette? No, not the animals in the wild, nor the women out and about in a few hot Boulder bars (which will remain nameless — boys, message me later and I will point you in the right direction). No, none of the above. A courgette is another...

Dear Pharmacist...

Boulder City Council members seem to be confused. They seem convinced that dealing with the public at their public meetings has become difficult and that new rules are required to keep the hoi polloi from making a mockery of civil government. In truth, it’s City ...

Gooood morning, Phoenix! Oh wait, I still live in Colorado. These temperatures are messing with my mind. I don’t know why I’m so over the heat this summer — we still have a long way to go. Perhaps it is that my dessert line has me in the kitchen 24/7, and baby...

I think it’s safe to say that we are a compulsive society and all of us are obsessed with something. In Boulder, our obsessions tend to be mountain biking the Marshall Mesa Trail or training for the Bolder Boulder. For me, I’m addicted to those free samples at ...

Dear Pharmacist, I just became a pharmacist and started reading your syndicated column. Your emphasis is usually centered around the benefits of vitamins, minerals or alternative treatments, as compared to prescription medications.  I take offense sometimes because I...

It’s been an Applepalooza of a month. I can’t get away from the apple desserts. They have been requested for parties, picnics and potlucks. Sounds like a bad Food Network show, but no, it’s just where my creations have been showing up. This week, my friends, it is...

Dear Pharmacist,My question is about the FDA and freedom of speech. The reason I ask is that I am reading your Drug Muggers book, and you make a lot of nutrient recommendations. When I called a big online store to ask a question about a supplement they sell, they ...

Happy trails, hit the trail, get along little doggie. Maybe that last one doesn’t apply, but I like it, so there. This week’s treat will sustain and satisfy: Cranberry Trail Mix Bread. Similar to banana-bread-minus-thebananas. It is chock full of cranberries (...

If the Congressional candidate had not sent us the press release, we probably wouldn’t have learned about the police report, and he probably wouldn’t have suspended his campaign. This is a story about looking under the surface of things. Bob Brancato, a ...

My vagina is very high-maintenance. I mean, really, whose isn’t? A vagina needs grooming and cleaning, love and affection, touch and pleasure, and, of course, good vibrations. Eve Ensler launched the Vagina Monologues in 1996. This was such an asset to our ...
