Autumn
A Brilliant Dance
By Rosemary DeMann
There’s a newness in the air that can’t be ignored, a joyful re-awakening of the spirit. Each morning the crisp fresh air fills us with a new energy and anticipation of what the day will bring.
The trees that line the sidewalks are radiant with hues of red, burgundy, orange, gold and yellow. We watch the leaves as they begin to shake and shimmy with the breeze, sometimes they whip around us and swirl in the air then float effortlessly to the ground like a brilliant dance. At its peak I can’t think of anything more beautiful.
Gracing our Autumn cover is the exquisite professional dancer Anna Tubenskaya of Dancing with the Stars. Anna has been a long time client of Freshology and she is a great example of healthy living. Hard work and good nutrition go hand in hand, and fueling your body with healthy foods is the key to overall fitness. During the show season and in-between, a healthy lifestyle requires work.

We tend to embrace the Fall as the beginning of the holidays. There’s a welcome note in the air as families plan their gatherings and meals together and complete strangers nod and greet each other openly with a smile. The first smell of roasted chestnuts and a burning wood fireplace is familiar and comforting.
Freshology’s Autumn menu is infused with new flavors. Our chefs have created delicious recipes around this fall’s harvest which is bountiful with hearty fruits and vegetables such as apple, pear, fig, turnip, beet root and parsnip to name a few. Personally, I crave the warm pureed sweet potatoes with a dash of honey and cinnamon, and roasted brussel sprouts dusted with balsamic and a tiny touch of sea salt. Yum! Our team is hard at work each day making sure each of your meals are fresh and scrumptious.
“Giving thanks by giving back” to our community is engrained in the culture of Freshology. We continue to support the efforts of the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank throughout the year and Freshology team members continue to volunteer their time at the LARFB to those in need.
I think of this magical time as Autumn’s grand finale, because it’s natures last bold colorful performance before the earth rests for the winter. On a personal note I think it’s the worlds way of touching our emotions by stopping us, astounding us and reminding us that we are truly connected.
From our hearts to your homes… May You & Your Family Enjoy A Warm & Happy Thanksgiving!
