Martin Luther King, Broccoli, and Me


Once again it is almost my birthday--a significant one this year that I come close to sharing with Dr. King. It often falls on the Mid-Atlantic Leather (MAL) weekend here in DC which gives me endless opportunities to hit up leather clad strangers for free drinks.


This year has been unseasonably warm and I have broccoli ready for harvest in my Logan Circle front yard. So for my significant birthday this year I will have 13th ST free range organic, crack-free broccoli, high in vitamin C and soluble fiber. Thank you global warming for providing me for free compound glucoraphanin which leads to an anticancer compound sulforaphane. I guess at my age--I need it!
