My regular recipes don't require it as an ingredient too often at all, and I had bought some to start adding to my stir fry. I do not cook stir fry often enough, and I am not keen on having the ginger sitting around for a long time to waste away slowly.

When I was doing my herbalist courses at the healing college, they drilled it and drilled it into us that anything that could be used as medicine was especially precious and to get everything we could possibly get out of it. Medicinally, ginger is used as an anti-inflammatory. Commonly it is taken to reduce symptoms of indigestion, nausea & vomiting, and for pain relief from arthritis and damaged cartilage.

One might assume the highlight of the night was the spectacular setting, the wide-open ocean views or the scintillating dinner conversation, but the true star of the event was the second course: Debra’s pasta smothered in a dreamy, creamy spinach and Ricotta cheese “sauce.”

And I put sauce in quotes because the topping is so thick and rich it could stand alone as a veggie side dish. In fact, if one has a penchant for creamed spinach, this is definitely a new and very improved rendition!

This post was originally published February 16, 2011.] If we’re being honest, most of us will never own a work of art by a famous artist. And while back in college, it might have been okay to pay homage to one of the greats with a poster print from the museum, these days when it comes to the artwork that hangs on our walls, we tend to opt for original pieces by emerging (read: more affordable) talents. A few enterprising souls have found a way to sidestep the issue completely by displaying famous works of art directly on their bodies.
