By now you probably know that I’m a big fan of locally grown fruit and vegetables — to me, great health is all about simplicity, and buying local is one of the easiest things we can do. That’s why I’m so ecstatic that spring is here and our local farmers’ market will be opening in

Every week when I go to the farmers’ market, I make a beeline for the “Two Guys From Woodbridge” table. My buddy Perry (pictured here with his mom Lucia) has the freshest, healthiest greens I’ve tasted. Ever. And you can imagine as the super-duper healthy person I am, I’ve even a lot of greens over
