Show notes
Heather's latest fave USCF Grand Round (some very hopeful info on testing--but ONLY if we begin to understand that Public Health is the most important thing--as opposed to individual health. B/c if the Public is healthy, we have a greater likelihood of being kept healthy ourselves).

And this was fascinating (and I thought very nicely done)

Kitchen is an enchantingly original book that juxtaposes two tales about mothers, love, tragedy, and the power of the kitchen and home in the lives of a pair of free-spirited young women in contemporary Japan.
