Hi Ken, I know of three sales you've made so far amoung my circle of friendly food historians :-)
My copy is on its way. Your books were a great incentive to purchase this DVD without first previewing it!
This is pretty amazing. Congrats!
I'm trying to eat better. And, I do feel wise after drinking tea. After eating vegetables, I just feel hungry. Coillcumhann
