perfect mashed potatoes!

yay pumpkin cheesecake!

wahhhhhhhhhh im making these vegan, they'll be delicious! mmm agave nectar ftw!

Cranberries are essential. Mmmmm cranberry sauce with champagne and currents!!!! I think I might have to swap the champagne with some locally-produced sparking wine though :-D

Hmm I beg to differ, my meat-eating friend. Though I now live outside the United States, I could name you at least 10 of my friends whose families still operate family farms. Gradually, they are being put out of business due to buyouts by corporation farms. And when I say put out of business I mean they are put OUT of business; not being managed by a corporation.

And yes, they are evil. CAFO's? Are you kidding? Those aren't evil? Have you blatantly ignored the negative impact these cattle-cities have on the environment? Come on now.

Thankfully there's a burgeoning movement to return to the as you put it in quotes, "family farm." I assure you, they do exist.

Individuals can do much to educate those around them.

oh dear, my fellow wisconsinites.... what were you thinking?! *tear

obviously they didn't understand that pollan is against CORPORATION farms, not the small, local dairy farmer.

I second @jennywenny 's motion. Processed food? Blech.

those look AMAZING. yummmmmmm

fantastic pictures!! i can't decide which is better--the korean patbingsu, or the filipino halo-halo....

depends on the day and my location, i suppose :-)

Fantastic pictures, if I wouldn't have been so hungover, I would have come. Guess that means I'll have to stay in Korea for another year :-)

uhhh just so you know--there are people living in korea who don't actually live in seoul.

Ian's rules. As a former badger, I've got to attest to the amazingness of the grilled veggie slice!
