Skirious (Skee-your-os) combines two Greek words meaning "shady" and "tail" and is the name of my college sorority's mascot-the squirrel. It's a strange mascot, but its selection was not random.
Nuts have been put high on a pedestal the past few years, and rightfully so. For too long, many in the medical and nutrition community discouraged the consumption of nuts because they are high in fat. That idea came from the out-of-date view that all fats are bad. It's now been shown that nuts are packed full of healthful fats, fats that keep Skirious full of vim, vigor and vitality.
