Weekend Reading

Reading

New research shows being grateful actually makes you healthier. Read more at the WSJ.

Save the apples! This Slow Food USA report shows how apple varieties in the US are becoming extinct -- and how we can help save them. A little Johnny Appleseed action.

I liked this post on donating nutritious foods this holiday season from Nutrition for the Future.

I'd like to tax junk food. Here's another way to do it.

Watching and Eating

Sunday, November 28th, 2pm  -- Lets Eat! Films on Food: Honey Bee Day
Colony
The unexplainable phenomenon known as Colony Collapse Disorder has left landscapes of empty beehives all across America, threatening not only the beekeeping industry but our food supply. As scientists and beekeepers search for the cause, Colony captures the struggle within the beekeeping community to save the honeybee and themselves. Colony documents a time of unprecedented crisis in the world of the honeybee through the eyes of both veteran beekeeper, David Mendes, and Lance and Victor Seppi, two young broth- ers getting into beekeeping when most are getting out. As Mendes tries to save the nation’s collapsing hives, the Seppi’s try to keep their business alive amidst a collapsing economy.
