【推荐1】Travel is a huge part of my life, and the planning part is half of the fun of the experience, in my eyes. Not everyone feels the same way I do, however. I have never had anyone plan a trip for me, and to find someone that loves to plan as much as I do is hard.
It just so happens that a very close friend of mine is a research addict (对……入迷的人) herself. She is always in charge of checking the details. Overdrinking one evening, I came up with an idea. Why not plan a secret vacation for one another? One person plans all the details, and the other just shows up and is surprised the whole trip. You would have settled a budget (预算), time, method of travel, but nothing else. Location, activities, and hotels would be planned by the other person.
We poured over the ideas of how we would achieve such a thing, and talked until the next bottle of wine was empty. It was a night to remember, and the ideas still sounded reasonable the next morning.
Weeks later we decided to put it to the test. She planned the first trip, and I had no idea or stress about any of the details. It was an amazing time, and such a learning experience for myself to be able to just let go, and truly be surprised and appreciative of the thought she put into our vacation.
Want to have a secret vacation yourself? Here are the top reasons why you should try it!

【推荐2】Handmade Card from Me to You
When I was 9 years old, I received my first handmade card from a classmate, who had just moved to New Jersey. I helped him in his hard time adjusting to(适应) his new school. So he made me a card. It was a folded piece of paper from his notebook,with a picture of us he'd drawn on the front. There were only a few sentences inside.
Special handwritten cards take time and effort to make and feel very personal. Like photographs, cards can be stored and looked back on. You can make your own unique card with supplies you have at home. What's most important is the message you write inside.

【推荐1】Farm to school events are happening all over the country this month. The events are aimed at bringing fresh food to students’ plates. And, after a decline in nutrition education in U. S. schools in recent decades, there’s new momentum (势头), to weave food and cooking into the curriculum again.
“I’d love to see it brought back and have the science around healthy eating integrated,” says Stacy Dean, deputy under secretary for food, nutrition and consumer services at the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Dean told me she was inspired by a visit to Watkins Elementary, in Washington, D. C. where this idea is germinating. Students grow vegetables in their school garden. They also roll up their sleeves in the school’s kitchen to participate in a FRESHFARM FoodPrints class, which integrates cooking and nutrition education.
Evaluations show participation in FRESHFARM programs is associated with increased preference for fruits and vegetables. And, the CDC points to evidence that nutrition education may help students maintain a healthy weight and can also help students recognize the connection between food and emotional wellbeing. Given the key role diet plays in preventing chronic (慢性的) disease, the agency says it would be ideal to offer more nutrition education.
At a time when diet-related disease is a leading cause of death, and unhealthy eating habits are entrenched (根深蒂固的) in U. S. culture, it’s unrealistic to think that a cooking curriculum could overcome such a sweeping, societal problem. “We know from years of evidence that we need multiple things to come together to support healthy eating,” says Angela Odoms-Young, a professor of maternal and child nutrition at Cornell University.
At a time when the U. S. spends billions of dollars on diet-related disease, an investment in nutrition education makes sense, says the USDA’s Stacy Dean. “Food is so fundamental to life and good health and it is absolutely worthy of some time in the basic curriculum,” she says. The hope is that integrating nutrition and cooking into a school program will give kids the skills and inspiration to eat well, and help put them on a healthy path.

【推荐3】Beejhy Barhany, growing up in an Ethiopian-Jewish community in Israel, has been cooking for her family as long as she can remember. Now a chef and owner of Tsion Café in Harlem, New York, Barhany continues to pull from cooking traditions, including one that has become the source of much controversy in recent decades: washing raw meat before cooking.
For Barhany, submerging raw chicken in salt and lemon water is both functional and ceremonial, as soaking or rinsing raw meat in salt water and acid-such as lemon juice or vinegar-is a common form of “washing” required by Jewish Kosher rules. And a 2015 survey of over 1, 500 American consumers found that nearly 70 percent rinse or wash their poultry before cooking it, though the U. S. Department of Agriculture( USDA) started telling consumers not to wash raw poultry in the 1990s. Experts including those from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention strongly warned that rather than reducing the risk of foodborne illness (食源性疾病), washing meat increases the likelihood of spreading unwanted pathogens (病原体), like salmonella and campylobacter, around the kitchen.
“Washing meat before cooking is not really helping,” says Betty Feng, associate professor of food science at Purdue University. “The only thing it does is splashing (飞溅) and could cross-contaminate a lot of your kitchen items-your sink, probably your clothes, whatever you have by the sink.” Moreover, Feng cautions against using saltwater, vinegar, or lemon juice, which simply isn’t strong enough to effectively kill foodborne pathogens. “If the acidity is high enough to kill bacteria, then it’s not really likely you can use your bare hand to wash,” she says.
And a 2022 study showed that submerging meat in a bowl of water reduced the splashing but not the spread of germs. “I would treat the entire sink just like the outside of the chicken——it’s a biological hazard,” says Benjamin Chapman, one of the study authors and associate professor in North Carolina State University’s agricultural and human sciences department. “The way that we make meat safe is through cooking, not through the removal of pathogens.”
