Discussing the topic of uncertainty is difficult to do without descending into clichés. For instance, how many times have you heard that “the only constant is change?” But in life, and in your martial training, that element of uncertainty is often missing, as we become victims of mundane routine. As we learn various techniques and strategies, that “X factor,” that unknown, is often not accounted for. Then it shows up in real life, and make us realize that we must accept it.

The first time I made granola with my now 5-year-old daughter, she wasn’t quite 2 years old. She wore an adorable little apron, had her own mixing spoon, and I picked out a “just the right size for this batch of granola” bowl for us to work in. Moments after starting our granola project, oats and maple syrup littered the floor, her step stool, and her hair. And that’s when I learned that when you’re cooking with young kids, you need a much bigger bowl than you think.

No, even bigger.

These findings, published in the journal Nature, build upon years of work which began with the discovery that the hearts of newborn mammals have the ability to regenerate, similar to the way skin has the ability to repair itself after a cut.

If you’re looking to add some pop, fizz, and bubble to your holiday occasion, cava is pretty much always a good solution. Spain’s answer to Champagne can make the leap from office white elephant party to black-tie dinner party with aplomb. In fact, we’d argue cava is so versatile that you should just buy a case now.

But our favorite way to use cava this time of year is in punch. (Because what are the holidays without something fizzy, festive, and spiked?)

Type “one-pan pasta” into your search engine and you’ll unearth a bounty of recipes and blogs touting the merits of a now well-recognized method for cooking pasta: Cook dry pasta start to finish with its sauce and aromatics, water and all, in the same, single skillet. As it boils, the ingredients magically turn into perfectly cooked pasta and a simple pasta sauce — no huge pot of water necessary to boil pasta, no washing of multiple pans and colanders, no time-consuming sauce-making.

One-pan pasta is one of the best things to make any time of year, but especially during the holiday season. It’s a cinch to make on the nights after or leading up to meals that take more prep, when you need to eat but don’t want a big production (or a big mess).
