A Sad Farewell to Gourmet Magazine
I was very sad to learn that Gourmet Magazine will be closing the doors. The publisher Conde Naste announced on October 5th that November 2009 will be the last issue.
Apparently the casualty of our current down economy and the advertising dropoff that has affected the publishing industry at large. Like so many publications, the magazine has faced tough challenges coping with the Internet and changing consumer behavior.

Broccoli Tips
Broccoli is a super nutritious vegetable
Here are some interesting broccoli tips of the information variety. Of course, the kind of broccoli tips you can eat are often called florets.
Fresh broccoli is available year round, but the best season is from October to May. Look for broccoli with more slender stalks. Overly thick stalks may indicate older broccoli. Wilted leaves and yellowish buds also indicate older broccoli that's not as fresh.
The broccoli clusters should be firm and a rich green color. Best to prepare your broccoli as soon as you purchase, but refrigeration will help to retain the vitamin A and vitamin C content.
Broccoli is full of healthful nutrients. One cup of chopped broccoli contains 90% of the RDA of vitamin A, 200% of vitamin C, 6% of niacin, 10% of calcium, 10% of thiamine, 10% of phosphorous and 8% of iron. It also provides 25% of your daily fiber needs. And in addition to all of the vitamins and minerals, a one cup serving of broccoli provides 5 grams of protein.

Noting is more satisfying on a brisk winter day than a bowl of hearty minestrone soup. Minestrone roughly means "the big soup" in Italian, refering to a vegetable style soup with many ingredients. There is no one correct way to make minestrone, but just be sure to include lots of vegetables.
