Weekend Reading

Reading

Epicurious has a nice, interactive site for winter farm-to-table eating. Check it out here.

New, interesting, research suggests that time spent being sedentary hurts you regardless of whether you also exercise.  Makes me all the more concerned about the mandatory watching of Tom & Jerry during indoor recess. The article specifically cites the increase in blood pressure in children associated with screen time.

I'm sure you were all looking for more evidence that we should eat fewer animal products. Here's some.  I'd like to see the school lunch program help kids get used to this kind of eating.

There's new evidence that the dairy industry's fight to to keep chocolate milk in schools is still misguided. Read it here.

Fun

Remember Dr. King this weekend. On Monday, at 9am, Glen Cove hosts a march from the First Baptist Church on Continental through Glen Cove to the Wunsch Arts Center where a program will celebrate Dr. King's memory.
