Eat Real. Eat Local.

So until I get that great name for a food blog that isn't taken yet I'll just post about things related to food here :)

Like this initiative by Hellmanns, a canadian mayonnaise producer. Weird, I know. Why would they care about good food? They have a pretty ok explanation over here (click on the jar on the bottom). While I don't know their motivations, I do like the points they're making in the video about the amount of food imported into Canada and the benefits of local produce. Watch it yourself:

a quote:

"I cannot believe that the purpose of life is to be happy. I think the purpose of life is to be useful, to be responsible, to be compassionate. It is, above all to matter, to count, to stand for something, to have made some difference that you lived at all" - Leo Rosten

libro de caras:

: Name: sarita; Location: Switzerland

THIS IS: a personal logbook, capturing experiences, rencontres, thoughts and ideas; a way to stay in touch with family and friends, letting them know where I am, what I'm doing and how I feel I AM: a swiss farm girl, back home after having travelled a little bit of this world, curious and awake, enjoying every breath I take and the moments that take my breath away. I LIKE: my family, cats, Lindor chocolate, books that make me forget the world around me, connecting with people, experiencing other cultures, going out of my comfort zone, playing around with html, other people's trust, getting hugged, drinking milk coffee, meeting new interesting people, tea with honey, acting on my gut feeling, early mornings and late nights, talking to friends and living life consciously I DON'T LIKE: if you don't remember me, coca-cola, feeling inefficient, confrontation, lost opportunities, zero-sum games.
