If you live in the U.S. (and haven’t been living under a rock), you probably know that we’re having a bit of an egg problem here these days. Over the last few weeks over half a billion (WITH A B!) eggs have been recalled from stores all over the nation. As tends to be the [...]

I was very tempted to start this post by reciting the old adage that involves apples and days and keeping the doctor away (I basically just did), but I’ve never really liked that saying.
