Little Iron Chefs, Cereal History, and Community Supported Agriculture

If you've watched Iron Chef before, imagine Little Iron Chefs. This is a pizza making contest for little kids. Yes, they're cute, but strawberry jam on pizza? The winning recipe sounds pretty good, though.

While we're on the food tangent, do you know about the history of Kellogg's cereals? Kellogg's is located in Battle Creek, Michigan, which holds a free cereal fest every year. I have to admit that even though I grew up in Michigan, I didn't know the details outlined in this article. Gives me something to think about while eating Frosted Flakes.

I purchased a share of a local community supported agriculture (CSA) today. CSA shares are a great idea because all the produce is grown biodynamically. Because it is economically challenging for a smaller farm to compete with large farming franchises, purchasing a CSA share helps to supply the smaller farm with operating capital. I also like the fact that I'm able to pick up organically grown freshly harvested produce every week. I purchased a share from Piedmont Organics. I plan on writing about the experience as the growing season cycles though, so stayed tuned.
