I was back visiting one of my favorite cities for the All Things Organic show. Celia and I fit a run in on Wednesday morning and visited the Green Market for some early summer berries and fresh herbs. I was fortunate to spend a year in Chicago when my husband was at North Western University for his MBA. If I had thicker skin and could hack a 30 degree April, I would move back in a heart beat. The people, culture, history, and FOOD rank it as one of my favorite spots in the US.
Speaking of food….Taleggio flat bread with truffle oil, Brussels sprouts and shaved fennel salad, sour cherry pound cake...all mouthwateringly DELICIOUS and served up at one of my favorite restaurants anywhere, Avec, in Chicago! Koren Grieveson, the chef, brings s
ome of the most simple, yet complex, flavors together and always has me inspired.
I also had the chance to go to one of my other favorite restaurants...Art Smith's Table 52. The biscuits out of the wood burning oven make my mouth water just thinking of them. When you walk into this little jewel box tucked away on Elm street you feel as if you are in Art’s ho
me kitchen (a fancy one at that). Make sure and check it out if you are in Chicago (but make reservations!) |

 I traveled to 3 states in 2 days....California to Texas to North Carolina with in 24 hours.
After a great work week in CA that started with the InStyle and Environmental Media Awards luncheon, “The Busy Mom’s Guide To Greener Living” where I spoke about the importance of eating organic (while guests feasted on a menu with O Organics ingredients). We then moved on to San Diego for a few days filled with food, family, friends, and filming.

I recently learned that on average babies are being born with over 200 chemicals in their systems.This learned by studying the chord blood of new borns. This is not meant to scare you although it may.

Pregnancy Awareness Month Kick-Off Event
Santa Monica, CaliforniaMay 6, 2009
I have to say, there are few things quite as beautiful as a pregnant woman. This was completely evident as I had the privilege to be part of the PAM (Pregnancy Awareness Month) kick-off event in Los Angeles this past weekend hosted by Anna Getty http://www.pregnancyawarenessmonth.com. Babies, bellies, and children were abounding! 
Not only is cooking and healthy eating a passion of mine, but making sure that women have the tools and knowledge to empower themselves for a healthy pregnancy and child development is cornerstone.
I had the fun part of creating a lunch that everyone could snack on while getting to hear such great speakers as Dr. Alan Greene, renowned pediatrician and author, Christopher Gavigan, CEO of Healthy Child Healthy World and Sheila Hollender, co-founder of Seventh Generation, or while enjoying a fashion show with the latest hot mom trends. As many of you know, keeping up on exercise is something I struggle with (if only shopping for a great pair of shoes could sculpt the body like Pilates...). Too bad for me that when Chiara, my daughter, was young Lisa Druxman's fantastic Stroller Strides had yet to launch. Check out what is going on in your neighborhood: www.strollerstrides.com
