So this episode originally published last year on my anniversary January 29, 2017. But tomorrow I am almost just as nervous as I am interviewing Paul Kita is the James Beard Award-winning Food & Nutrition Editor at Men’s Health. He’s the founder of MensHealth.com’s popular food and cooking blog, Guy Gourmet. He has a new cookbook out called A Man, A Pan, A Plan: 100 Delicious & Nutritious One-Pan Recipes You Can Make Right Now! and I am trying not to be too nervous. 2018 Garden Goals Challenge When I spoke with JM Fortier I actually spilled my coffee on my Macbook! after almost 15 years of owning a laptop I've never even come close to doing anything so silly! Fortunately nothing broke. Anyway I thought this was a great time to repost this episode. Especially with the 2018 Garden Goals Challenge going on because many listeners I know are thinking of becoming market farmers and maybe this will inspire some of them to keep pursuing their dream or help them be more successful!
