there's nothing sexier than a girl in an air cast

My latest fashion statement

Last Thursday, I fractured the 5th metatarsal on my right foot. I wish I had an interesting story to tell you about how this came about. I'd like to be able to say "I broke it while skydiving," or "A herd of elephants escaped from the zoo and ran over it." But the fact is, I simply mis-stepped while crossing the street and that's what did the damage.

So, it looks like 4-8 weeks of R & R and an air cast for me. No yoga, running or dancing. Very minimal walking, as my body allows. I believe there is a lesson in everything. We'll see what I learn from my fracture. It's been an interesting year, to say the least.

In the meantime, please check out the following:
  • I published a recipe for Pasta with Kalamata Olives, Spinach and Roasted Cherry Tomatoes in this month's issue of GRID. (See page 26)
  • UrbanVegan.net was named by Blogging Health Careers as one of the top 50 blogs for healthy eating and nutrition.
  • VegNews magazine featured my upcoming cookbook in their online newsletter. [Please note: The actual book will not be wire-bound! The book they photographed is a review copy, for members of the press only, hence the funky binding.]
