Eating with Integrity: open for business

I officially have a business!  It is called Eating with Integrity.  I have a Certificate of Trade Name filed with the County of Fairfax and the County of Arlington/City of Falls Church.  Tomorrow I will apply for an Employer Identification Number (EIN) at IRS.gov.  With trade name certificates and EIN in hand, I will open a small business checking account later this week.  A business website is coming soon!

My office is currently located at Pinecrest Wellness Center in Annadale, VA.  I am especially interested in digestive disorders, food allergies/food intolerance, Celiac disease, weight control, eating disorders, vegetarian nutrition, sports nutrition, and childhood overweight/obesity.

I can help you get back on (or continue down) the path to health and longevity!

Pumpkin grows fast, despite mildew

September 16

September 26

My one and only pumpkin continues to grow, despite being attached to a vine that is slowly dying from powdery mildew.  A quick Google search tells me that I could have halted, or at least slowed, the spread of the mold by spraying the leaves with an alkaline solution.  Too bad it took me so long to research.  As you can see below, the mildew has reached the leaves nearest to the pumpkin.  I wonder if it's too late to save them!
