I often write the food column for Yoga Journal, where I work part time as their Communications Director. In the upcoming January/February issue, I invite a Zen Chef from Spirit Rock to cook with me for the day. We had a splendid time and I felt very lucky to live a life where I can interview a Zen Chef and get paid for it, let alone eat her food.
For the first time, the magazine asked me for a picture for their Contributor’s page.  I was not happy. I’m a writer and my words are my calling card. Now I was getting all uptight about a photo. I mean, could they erase my double chin?

Turns out yes, there’s this wonderful program called Photoshop and they can do all sorts of magical things with it.

I’m glad that’s over. Now I can get back to writing.
