Claire and Nathan Bradley, owners of the Berkeley-based olive oil and balsamic vinegar company Amphora Nueva, recently confirmed that they plan to open next to The Cooperage in downtown Lafayette, probably in September. The Amphora Nueva concept is to offer local olive oils and vinegars in large stainless steel containers that people can taste and pour into the containers of their choice.

Liz Talbot designs custom nutrition and fitness plans for individuals. Her first office was located in Walnut Creek and she recently expanded to Lamorinda. "I offer classes through a private studio in Moraga and also go to people's homes," she says. Talbot graduated from Cal in 2007 and is married to Campolindo alum Matthew Talbot (now a lawyer). She is an ACSM certified personal trainer, ISSA certified fitness nutritionist, and Yoga Alliance certified yoga instructor. In addition, she's studied wellness coaching and is trained in ACSM's Wellcoaches technique. "I am so happy to have found Liz through the Lamorinda Mom's Club," says Erica Barr. "Her experience and approach to training has been beneficial in many ways ... Liz helps me to stay motivated while I'm pregnant and would really rather just nap than exercise." Talbot herself is the mom of a 9-month-old baby. "I love what I do," says Talbot. "What we're eating and how we're using our bodies is fundamental to our wellbeing."
