I want to say a big “Thank you” to Beth Gendler and the JCC men’s club for letting me come and speak today. What a great group with lots of smart questions. Also, thank you so much for the JCC Mug! It will have an honored place on my desk and get lots of use.
Wishing you all Health and Happiness!

Well, it has been 3 weeks and much woman and man hours have gone in to getting the new space ready.  The clients really love the new office, which is all I could hope for.  We hope to have  a part time massage person available soon so I will keep you updated.  I’ve been getting out and meeting all the local business owners who have been very warm and welcoming.  If you have a minute stop by and say Hi at our new Merriam Park Acupuncture Office at 1523 Selby Avenue in St Paul.
Looks like summer is going fast so try to get out and enjoy the sun when you can!
Health and Happiness- Barb

My friend Rose gave me her Minestrone Recipe and this is simply the best Minestrone soup I’ve ever had and to quote Mike Myers mom “I AM a soup nut”!
Here it is:
2 cans cannelini beans
1 large can chopped tomato (Rose likes San Marzano)
3 cups chicken broth or water (I use water)
1/2 cup celery chopped
1/2 cup carrots chopped
1/4 cup gr. pepper chopped
1/2 red onion chopped
3 cloves garlic chopped
3 small zucchini chopped
1/4 lb. green beans
2 yukon gold potatoes
salt and pepper to taste
Saute garlic, onion, gr pepper in a little oil and then add carrots and celery
Add water, tomatoes, 1 1/2 can beans and potatoes – cook 1 hour
Puree the remaining 1/2 can beans and add with green beans and zucchini last 20 minutes.
Enjoy Your Soup!
