Take a Little Break!

You deserve a break today!  So sit back and relax for about a half hour to watch a little video treat I have for you.  If you don't have that kind of time just now, I know that later there is about a half hour of bad sitcom or even worse election coverage that you'll be able to live without.  The title sounds kind of gloomy, I know, but it has a happy ending.

Celery and Food Security

Last week at the grocery store I heard a woman exclaim about the price of celery, "That's ridiculous!  I would NEVER pay that much for celery!"  I looked at the celery and it was about $1.39 per bunch.  A decidedly high price, to be sure.  Her words remained with me throughout this past week, as I wondered what she will do as the price of not only celery but all of the other food in the grocery store continues to climb to more and more seemingly ridiculous heights.  And I was brought once again to the concept of Food Security.
