What Do The NY Times, The Root & The Intersection All Have In Common? Me!

Just a quick update that I should’ve written a while ago, but because so many things were coming up back to back, I had to wait and just hit you with all of ’em at once:

• Tara Parker Pope’s article for the Well section of the New York Times about veganism was paired with a Room For Debate which asked if veganism was a viable option for everyone… and right there, in the middle of the answers.. you find me. Pardon me while I peppa seed all across your computer screen.
• The Root is doing a series of articles discussing the “obesity epidemic in the Black community,” leading up to a symposium they’re hosting about how we can solve the “crisis.” The second article in the series… is an interview with me. Nothing funnier than having your Mom call you in the middle of your day, shouting “Erika! You’re on the front page of The Root! Your face is as big as day!”
• Jeff Johnson – lovingly remembered as Cousin Jeff, at least for me – now has a show on blis.fm called The Intersection, and about 40 minutes into it… you see me. On video. In red, no less. (Side note: the video description has me listed as a nutritionist… sounds like another certificate worth pursuing, hmm?)

Dude…where am I going to pop up next? [insert innocent smile]
