I Want to THRIVE
March/April
In 2009 we had the idea of creating six downloadable magazines just for SCDers that would cover the whole year! Each one would include lots of seasonal taste-tested recipes, articles about living and cooking, menus with recipes and shopping lists, and other interesting stuff that someone on the SCD would like! They were and continue to be a big hit! Please enjoy!
Some of these recipes can now also be found in our "Food With Friends" and "International Feast: You Can Eat This!"

I appreciated good health and the opportunity it brings, so much more than ever before. One of my personal victories after getting well on the SCD was to complete an internship at the White House. I don't know what first piqued my interest, but at the age of 8 or 9 I started a tradition of writing to every U.S. President for their signature and picture, and have had an interest in politics ever since..."

Manage Your Thoughts "A huge part of success on the SCD - or when undertaking any endeavor for that matter - is learning to manage your thoughts.

Saint Patrick's Day "Ever since we were in elementary school we knew that we had to wear green on March 17th or we'd get pinched, and that it was good luck to find a four leaf clover!

Out & About... at the Crab Cooker Restaurant "One of the fun spots to visit in Orange County, California, is the Crab Cooker fish market and restaurant, with two locations.

Great Ingredient: Tahini "Tahini sounds rather exotic and foreign, but as our tastes broaden and our neighborhoods become more diverse, we find that we are eating and being exposed to many interesting and delicious cuisines and ingredients that were unknown not too long ago. This is a big advantage for a person on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet because many of the foods from other lands are more natural..." Read more on page 27... |
