For many of us, clean water is so plentiful and readily available that we rarely, if ever, pause to consider what life would be like without it.

I feel very fortunate that I was raised in a multicultural family, and it came through food.

Just like keeping a healthy diet is important to maintaining a healthy lifestyle, eating the right foods is just as important for getting the most out of your workout.

In Ethiopia, where I was born, all the cooks are women. When I grew up in Sweden, my mom and my grandmother did predominantly all the cooking. Then I changed to restaurant kitchens, where all of a sudden there were just more men than women, and I always thought that was weird.

I'm a big believer in the negligee, that nearly invisible screen standing between you and the object of your desire.

I love Thanksgiving because it's a holiday that is centered around food and family, two things that are of utmost importance to me.

Thanksgiving is one of my favorite American traditions. I quickly picked it up when I moved to the U.S. from Sweden.
