Letter from the Publisher March 2008 Dear Life Bites News Readers, March features the celebration of St. Patrick's Day, and all things Irish. Parades and parties honoring the patron saint of Ireland will be a highlight in major United States cities, as well as Dublin, Ireland on March 17th. Below you will find a favorite St. Pat's Day recipe of corned beef and cabbage for your 'wearing of the green' celebration dinner. This month is also the time to honor excellence in entertainment at the Oscar Awards Ceremony, where the best of the best will go home with that beautiful gold guy, and Wolfgang Puck will once again feed the crowd of hungry celebrities and dignitaries following the award presentations. Don't miss additional coverage of the Santa Barbara International Film Festival. Our travel and culinary coup pages are filled with new travel and food venues to learn about, including the new Ruth's Chris Steak House on upper State Street, and a hotel/chef feature on The Queen Mary in Long Beach. The 2008 Olympics in China is creating quite a stir, with new hotels opening and tourist deals being offered. Best wishes to the 2008 Olympic Committee, the countless volunteers, the good residents of the City of Beijing, and the athletes who all make us so proud. Thank you for joining us this month, and we hope you enjoy our March issue. Join us next month for our health and food news from the Natural Products Show.
