It's orange season...

...and I've been zesting my little heart out. I've already filled a sandwich-sized ziploc bag with zest, and I'm pretty sure there's no end in sight. John and I have been enjoying our increased Vitamin C intake. What do you do with your oranges?

Plenty...

I just finished the book, Plenty, by Alisa Smith & J.B. MacKinnon. It was a memoir of sorts. A look at one couple's commitment to eating food grown within a 100-mile radius of their home. I'm developing quite a fondness for local food, although don't have much to show for it myself at this point. We'll see where this affection takes me. But for now, I love reading about it, and am constantly insired by people who are willing to challenge themselves in the midst of a society that promotes excess & indulgence. It's a good read.
