The food blogging ball is rolling — I’m finally off my duff and planning for the series of events around food and blogging for this summer and early fall. Check the food blogging wiki page if you’re interested in helping plan this. Here’s an event I hope I can attend and blog: Slow Food founder Carlo Petrini will speak at NCSU May 23rd at 7pm as part of the Farm-to-Fork celebration of Local Foods and Local Farms. (Don’t miss Corby Kummer’s excellent article in the May 2007 Atlantic Monthly, The Supermarket of the Future, about a slow-food grocery store in Turin, Italy.) If you read Michael Pollan’s essay in last Sunday’s NYTimes Magazine, You Are What You Grow, you’ll see that there’s a movement to get our country back on a sane farming and eating practice. Our BlogTogether food blogging idea is another local way to celebrate the good farming and good food in our community. [Cross posted to mistersugar.com]
