When Food is Sacred....


....we prepare it slowly and with intention. 


With carefully selected ingredients from our local farmers or from our garden. 


We join around the table with family and celebrate.


We light candles, we say a blessing and thank our Creator for our food.



Whatever that food may be.....
Buying local and organic is not just important for the economy and to support family farms but as we've seen this week it's even more important to our health than ever. Outbreaks of deadly listeria are claiming lives in melons and in two separate  bagged lettuce outbreaks. Big food corporations simply cannot provide safe oversight of their millions of products.

Kraft has recalled some of it's products for containing bits of metal. And a Seattle based coffee company is having issues too. Please check your fridge, stay safe and God be with those who are ill.

And have you ever wondered about free things online. Here's a great little cartoon that sums it up perfectly.
