Food Revolution
>> Thursday, April 1, 2010
Hello all! Happy first day of April. Trying to get over and check in with everyone has been tough. So many projects and so little time. I'm currently finishing up two projects for my kids for Easter. I don't know what the matter is with me...I loathe deadline crafting. Especially deadline crafting that must be hidden and knit in secret.... I'll share when they are finished.
I just wanted to pop in this space and pass on the link to Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution petition. I'm sure you all have heard of the tv show that is airing right now but if you haven't, click on the link to get more information. My daughter will be heading off to the big bad public school system this fall and as a result I am getting more and more involved in what goes on at said public school. She will be brown bagging it for lunches I'm sure (she's incredibly picky) but it is appalling what is offered up as 'lunch' to kids in the school system. I think most of you would agree that nutrition plays a major role in our health and that for kids to learn and grow and soak up knowledge they need more in their stomach than a questionable meat and something that resembles corn in color but little else. I signed the petition and I hope it makes a difference. Sorry for the soapbox gripe but sometimes things just spill over :)
