HIP TIP - SALT
"POUR SOME SALT ON ME"OK, I know those aren't the lyrics BUT the warm weather is coming (soon, I hope) and it's now time to start getting ready for that Glowing Spring Skin.
All you need is that one same ingredient you need for french fries.
SALT
SALT SCRUB:
Yes, it's one of the simplest and effective methods for exfoliating.
Mix a handful with a dash of olive oil (no garlic infused, please) and massage it over your skin. Avoid your face and delicate areas. Rough patches, like your thighs, elbows, arms and knees could use a bit more attention.
Thoroughly remove all residue (and sloughed off skin) with a warm shower.
Soon, your exfoliation will reveal healthy, glowing Spring skin!
SALT BATH:
Epsom salt is best for a relaxing and wonderful bath to ease your muscles, soothe your aches and reduce swelling!
Make a custom scented bath by adding a few drops of lavender oil to the warm water.
2 cups of Epsom salt is the perfect amount for a tub soak!

The only time you ever really know you are "in good" with a Jewish guy's family is when you meet the Bubbe.
Adam's Grandma made us his all-time favorite meal-- her special brisket and split pea soup. It was delicious. The taste of cooking with love that just can't be beat.
Months later, I was discussing how great that split pea soup was with another family member-- who GAVE me the secret recipe (below)… and now I am divulging this secret to you!
It’s perfect for your home away from home.

THE APHRODISIAC OF ALL APHRODISIACS
DIFFICULTY LEVEL: OY / OY VEY!*
Chocolate. Yes, chocolate.
However, I do believe those Dove commercials with the brown silk sheets fluttering as the women eat chocolate while moaning wildly is a bit too much.
The following recipe is all about personalizing your dessert. If serving during a dinner party, this looks like you spent the whole day on it. The reality is, that it take about 10 minutes and an hour to set in the freezer.
Once the chocolate is melted, coat a pyrex dish or baking tray with either wax paper or saran wrap. Spray very very very lightly with Canola oil (Pam).
Pour the slightly cooled chocolate onto the tray. Sprinkle your selected nuts and berries or dried fruit onto the chocolate.
Throw into the freezer for about an hour.
How to Plate: Break the chocolate bar into large pieces and stack organically.

- 3 Chocolate bars (I prefer dark -- over 60 percent)
