Weekend Reading

October 10, 2008

The New York Times Magazine’s food issue is currently online and available for your reading pleasure.  It may be a little less comfortable to sip Sunday morning coffee at your desk with a computer as opposed to in bed with the paper, but we think it’s worth the sacrifice.

The periodical pleases the home gardner with a story about trials of weeding and tending toward food freedom, while another piece discusses the ban on tipping in an urban San Diego restaurant.  Perhaps more poignant is Michael Pollan’s exploration of food policy as it relates to our presidential choice, or a look at changing the way kids perceive healthy food through advertising.  There is also opinion and insight regarding the locavore movement and much, much more.

So snuggle up with a mug of well-brewed fair trade joe and enjoy!
