Finished the last book in the original Dune saga. Herbert was a genius. Now I have to read the 13 follow up novels.

I came up with a great snack yesterday; milk curd, natural yoghurt, walnuts, honey and banana slices all mixed together :-)

What music do you listen to when cooking? I've noticed that Simon & Garfunkel's Greatest Hits works for me, setting the mood just right :)
Benjamin Wilcox:
I dig motown when I am cooking, but almost any kind of music while making a meal is better than no music.

Depends on the cuisine. If I'm cooking paella, I listen to Spanish music. Shrimp masala, Indian/Bollywood sounds. Opera is best for Italian!

Just finished: Influence - The Psychology of Persuasion. Probably the best sales/persuasion book I've ever read. Very interesting stuff.

Good luck with your blog :) (s)low-carb diet combined with high-intensity workouts has worked wonders for me. Most cravings are gone too.

What kind of workout regimes you have? I go to gym about 3 times for every 2 weeks and do a 45 min one-set-to-failure full-body workout.

Barefoot running is euphoric! Just did high-intensity intervals with fivefinger shoes and then ran back home totally barefeet :)

Not withstanding beaches and grass, how is this even feasible on other surfaces? Five finger shoes maybe.

I actually run on tarmac with no shoes. I can also run few meters at a time on gravel, but obviously it's not very comfortable.

What books are everyone reading? I tend to favor leadership ones, but there is so much rich information out there that I'm not aware of
Jay Neely:
Great book, Stephen. I haven't stopped lending it to friends since I read it.

Someone lent it to me. I finished it last night and the same copy was passed on to someone else not ten minutes ago.
