Cookbook author Joan Nathan sows seeds of tradition, right here at Zingerman's Roadhouse!

Joan is a James Beard Award-winning cookbook author (and a University of Michigan grad), and with her 11 books has gathered timeless and delicious experiences from the far corners of the world. She will share the bounty of her latest collection with us as we recreate several recipes from her latest book, King Solomon's Table: A Culinary Exploration of Jewish Cooking from Around the World. Inside, readers will find more than 170 recipes, from Israel to Italy to India and beyond.

Join us for our Harvest Special Dinner #213 on Monday, August 28th, as we reap the lifetime of stories and recipes the tour de force of Jewish cooking, Joan Nathan, has accumulated for us.

Just as the biblical King Solomon cross-pollinated culinary cultures by sending out emissaries across ancient land and seas, "Nathan serves as a modern emissary, gathering recipes and stories from all around the globe." —Tim Carman, The Washington Post

We will not only taste recipes that have planted the seeds for Jewish cuisine, but the "queen of American Jewish cooking" (Houston Chronicle), will weave rich stories from across the ages as we explore the treasure that is King Solomon's Table. Don't miss out on this incredible dinner, and a one-of-a-kind opportunity to purchase a signed copy of Joan's nationally acclaimed new book!

Welcome to Dexter!

This morning at 8:00--not a bad morning as first days of Februaries go--we opened our doors in Dexter.  It's been a hectic couple of months.  We found a perfect spot for our offices in the Bluewater Building last fall; we spent weeks with their wonderful architect and fabulous building manager getting the plans done; we had an all-hands-on-deck move-in last weekend with every doctor, nurse, business manager and receptionist in the practice.  And now here we are!  Up on the hill, right on the edge of town, at 7444 Dexter-Ann Arbor Road.

This practice is centrally located in our patient community, easy to get to, and brand new.  We have a big well-lit welcome area, 4 beautiful exam rooms, and even a small gym where we'll encourage patient fitness.  Shelly Schwartz, who painted the exam rooms in Chelsea, is busy finishing murals on our clean blue walls: so far, we love the dinosaur ones best.

Because this office is bigger than the others in Chelsea or Ann Arbor, and because we have expanded hours--we're open from 8:00-6:00 on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, and from 10:00-5:00 on Wednesday--we should be able to accommodate everybody.  Thank all of you so much for being part of our patient family.  We hope you like our new home.  

The Chamber of Commerce has arranged a ribbon cutting at our front doors at noon on Wednesday.  Stop by if you get a chance.  We can't wait.

Flu Clinic Time Again

It's that time of year!  Turke & Thomashow will hold its first flu clinic in Ann Arbor, on Saturday, October 11, from 8:45-11:00 a.m.  As usual, you can sign up in the office or call to make an appointment.

Because flu viruses start circulating in the fall, it's best to get a shot soon after the vaccines become available in October.  Flu season usually peaks around January or February, but it takes about 2 weeks for the shot to have an effect, and immunity should last through spring.

All 2014-2015 influenza vaccines protect against these 3 strains: 

an A/California/7/2009 (H1N1)pdm09-like virus
an A/Texas/50/2012 (H3N2)-like virus
a B/Massachusetts/2/2012-like virus.

Starting this season, the CDC recommends using the nasal spray vaccine (LAIV) for healthy children 2 through 8. Others do just as well with a shot.  Vaccination risks are too high for children under 6 months, so it's especially important for the people they live with to get vaccinated themselves.

If you can't make this clinic, call anytime to schedule a visit in Ann Arbor or Chelsea.

Ticks are Up

The bad news: Michigan's tick population is booming.  Black-legged ticks--the bad ones, the ones that carry Lyme disease--are showing up on the Lower Peninsula's West Coast, from Berrien County toward the south to Traverse City County to the north.  Others are closer to us: ticks have been found recently as far east as Ingham and Genesee.
To keep black-legged ticks away from your kids, you might:
  • Avoid their habitats--they like game trails and bushy spots
  • Do a thorough check after you get back from a hike--look under the arms, behind the knees and between the legs, in and around the ears, and especially in the hair
  • Check clothes, shoes, packs and pets--some of which can be washed and tumble dried
  • Shower your kids, and yourself, within two hours of being outdoors
  • IF YOU DO FIND A TICK, there's a right way to remove it.  Put tweezers near its head, and gently pull it off.
Symptoms of Lyme disease include fever and fatigue, headache, heart palpitations, pain or swelling in large joints, loss of muscle tone (Bell's palsy) in the face, and erythema migrans--or "bull's-eye" rash, with concentric rings of redness around the target bite.  Most of those symptoms show up in the first few days or weeks; untreated, the infection can spread to the nervous system and heart.
 
The good news: Most cases of Lyme disease can be treated successfully with a short course of antibiotics.

Nuts to You

Around the office, we've started to eat nuts.  We like pistachios, walnuts, almonds, macadamia nuts, brazil nuts, hazelnuts, cashews and pecans.  We like them, partly, because they're tasty.  And we like them, partly because they're good for our hearts.

As it turns out:

  • Nuts are packed with antioxidants--which protect against the cell damage that contributes to heart disease.
  • Nuts are rich in omega-3 fatty acids--often found in fish--which prevent arrhythmias, another cause of heart attacks.  
  • Most nuts are loaded with monounsaturated and polyunsaturated, or "good" fats, that can help lower LDL, or "bad" cholesterol.
  • Many nuts contain vitamin E, which helps stop the development of plaques.

Even better: A new Harvard study suggests that people who eat nuts are less likely to die than people who don't.  In almost 120,000 adults, tracked over nearly 30 years, the benefits of nut eating were stark.  People who ate nuts less than once a week had a 7% reduction in mortality; once a week, 11%; 2-4 times a week, 13%; 5-6 times per week, 15%; and 7 or more times a week, 20%.

And nut eaters stayed slimmer, believe it or not!

Marijuana & Memory Loss

A new study at Northwestern University has found that teens who were heavy marijuana users--smoking most days for 3 years or more--had abnormal brain structures, and performed poorly on short term memory tests.  Those problems persisted at least 2 years after marijuana usage stopped, a possible indicator of long term effects.
 
Memory related brain structures appeared to shrink and collapse inward, possibly reflecting a decrease in neurons.  The younger these teenagers were when they started using marijuana, the more abnormally their brain regions were shaped.
 
Some of those changes in brain structure may be associated with schizophrenia.  Results of this study were published in the December 16 issue of the journal Schizophrenia Bulletin.
 
Marijuana is the most commonly used illegal drug in the US, and young adults have the highest use.
