I traveled the world and the US for business during the 80's and 90's receiving wonderful body work in places ranging from Chicago to New York to Hamilton (Bermuda) to London to Singapore to Kuta (Bali) to Kaunakakai (Molokai) and even Boise and Amarillo. Haven't traveled much in recent years, but after moving to Santa Fe I found this gem in 2009. Deep tissue massage and all other services I've used leave me blissed out.

Grapefruit Avocado Salad & Seared Pacific Grouper with Grapefruit Couscous and Citrus Buerre Blanc

Enjoy this recipe highlighting "grapefruit." which is a plentiful find, here in sunny Arizona. When selecting grapefruit, look for heaviness of size, firm to the touch when gentle pressure is applied, and a subtly sweet aroma (at room temperature). Grapefruit are available all year, but are "in-season" winter through early spring.
