Report on the February 2006 Advanced
Study Weekend
The advanced study weekend held
February 3rd ,4th, and 5th
was an outstanding success with more than 120 people
enjoying each other’s company, the fabulous food and the
nation’s top speakers on health.
Some people say they can’t
follow the diet because the foods don’t taste good. After

two soups, many side dishes and three different desserts,
participants received a real education on what can be made
fast, familiar and delicious.
