Today is a big day: Ian Cheney is in town! I just wanted to take a minute to publicly offer my thanks...:) Michael Pollan laid the groundwork with The Omnivore's Dilemma. Then King Corn really broadened the conversation about the "corny" issues in our U.S. of A. Corn's abundance in practically every food product--fresh, frozen, canned, and packaged--on the market is what makes living with corn allergy/intolerance hard. And then the ethical issues of a monoculture like corn! They abound...but today I'm thankful AND excited to hear what projects Ian is up to now!
Watch King Corn when you can, watch it again if you have already. I'll be seeing it again tonight. I'm sure I'll be brimming with excitement tomorrow!

Thanks Alex for the shout out! I had a wonderful visit to Exeter, largely thanks to your family's terrific hospitality. Keep up the great work — your kids will thank you for it.
