‘Food voice’: What it is, how to get it

Food is highly personal. Talk with anyone about food, their favorite restaurant or the best thing they ever ate, and their eyes light up with excitement. As they detail the taste, the dish, the setting, their “food voice” emerges. Coined by Annie Hauck-Lawson, a professor at the City University of New York, “food voice” is the way you engage with food to assert aspects of your identity. You develop your food voice as you create new recipes and dishes and try different cuisines.

Netflix-binge Drinking Game: How I Met Your Mother edition

Suit up! Despite its rather lackluster finale one year ago (still salty over that one), the television show “How I Met Your Mother” still holds a place very near and dear to my heart. “HIMYM” taught me the correct way to pick up someone at Midtown, it showed that “revertigo” is alive and well, and most importantly, a lower-back tattoo of a butterfly is not a good idea. So whether you’re watching from your couch or at your own version of MacLaren’s, get ready for a night that will be LEGEN — wait for it — DARY.
