In today’s episode, I sit down with Marine Corps Spouse Nikki Wilkinson. Nikki has been a military spouse for about 6 years, and together with her husband Mike for a total of 9 years. Nikki and Mike are an Active Duty family currently stationed aboard Marine Corps Base, Camp Pendleton, California. Nikki currently works at MiraCosta College in the Veterans Services Department. In her current role, Nikki can assist a lot of active duty, veteran, and transitioning military members and their spouses/family members in pursuing their educational goals (specifically using VA Education benefits). Prior to being stationed at Camp Pendleton, Nikki and Mike spent 3 years in Okinawa, Japan, where she was able to do a lot of traveling around Asia. Soon, Nikki plans on going to nursing school and is able to do so with the help of Mike’s GI Bill, which was gifted to her. Nikki loves being a military spouse and being able to support Mike while he serves our county.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
