    Skip the supermarket chain and head to the specialty cheese store, the traditional butcher's, the bakery that's been in the same family for three generations. At places like those, you're not just buying food, you're getting culinary wisdom, too.

    Cancer (June 22 - July 22)
    So much of how and what we eat is created by socialization. In some societies, a full meal is a protein accompanied by one vegetable and a grain. But in others, a meal consists of many small side dishes of vegetables and meat is only a garnish.

    It's unfortunate that so many go hungry even when there are surpluses of food available. Do your part by cleaning out your cupboards of unopened canned or boxed goods and donating them to a local soup kitchen today.

    Liberate yourself from a few old fears. Hated shrimp as a kid? Try shrimp scampi or poached shrimp with a little fresh cocktail sauce. Brussel sprouts, steamed and then sauteed in good coconut oil, are amazing.

    Some items are worth splurging on. A good cast-iron or copper-bottomed skillet will last you a lifetime. Sharp knives are good investments, too. But rubber-headed spatulas and wooden spoons? Not so much.

    Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
    Truthfully, a ripe, juicy pear and a candy bar both contain sugar. But that pear will help build healthy bones and skin, detoxify your liver and give you energy without giving you an energy crash. Will the candy bar do the same?

    The tang of tarragon can add so much to stews, pasta dishes and turkey burgers. Fresh is best, but dried will definitely do in a pinch. Taste the herb by itself and see what it inspires you to cook.
