Why a PINK chef's coat?

Simply put, I carry my Dad's legacy with me through my cookbook, cooking and everyday I am writing my food columns, he is always with me. I carry my Mom with me through a silent reminder of her struggle with breast cancer that took her life, as well as the lives of many other women who have dealt with, and are still dealing with, this horrible affliction. Besides, why not pink? It makes a man look good!

Cider-Pumpkin Pie Smoothie

Canned pumpkin is CHEAP. And you know how much I love using the word "cheap". By the way, am I the only one who does? Every time I utter that scarlet word, my kids and everyone in my family cringes. It's almost as if I had licked an envelope along the edge or something or scraped my nails down a chalkboard. Anyway, here is a great Smoothie recipe that can be enjoyed at anytime of the year or day. Try it for breakfast. Heck, it's CHEAPER and better for you than eating out!
