I gave up meat in 2019, so I had to eat more plant foods to stay healthy. I don’t identify as vegan or vegetarian. Whole-food plant-based living describes what I try to do, looking for the healthiest foods from two cultures. Fruit & Stuff is my collection of information. I hope you might be inspired to eat more “fruit & stuff” and join me in my journey toward the best health possible. After a long career as teacher, translator, and university administrator in Guadalajara and Torreon (Mexico), Texas, and Massachusetts, I retired and moved to Cancún in 2017. I have three grown children, seven grandchildren, three grandchildren-in-law, and one great-grandson.
