Five Important Things I Learned About Food from Joel Salatin

Last Updated on January 8, 2019 by Crunchy Betty

Five Important Things I Learned About Food from Joel Salatin 1

If you've seen Food, Inc., you know Joel Salatin. He's unforgettable. Really gives the whole documentary it's juicy, natural flavor. He's the farmer. You know the one I'm talking about. With the large glasses and the no-nonsense, down-home, slightly skewed sense of humor, shootin' the breeze while the chickens go gracefully into their dark night behind him. His mouth is the kind of mouth for which a sprig of wheat would stand in line just to get chewed on. Not only is he outspoken for ... Continue Reading

Chia Lookin’ Swell, Baby

Last Updated on July 11, 2018 by Crunchy Betty

Chia Lookin' Swell, Baby 1

(First of all, you laughed at the title. I know you did. Because you totally got that it was a play on "Gee, you're looking swell." Because chia seeds swell. Get it? GET IT?) I'm claiming hipster status with chia seeds. Why? Because I tried them first about 5 years ago, before they were cool. Suck on that, 30-second mention of chia seeds on The Chew last week. But, the truth is, I only tried them once, and they freaked me out. No one told me what to expect; the clerk at the local natural ... Continue Reading

I’m Sorry, Lyle Lovett

Last Updated on September 7, 2016 by Crunchy Betty

Today I'm going to tell you a story. Like, a real story with no moral. Because, frankly, at this very moment on this very night I'm really exhausted from thinking about tips and inspiration and information and doing things. Admit it; we could all use a little break. And all I want to do is tell you a story. Is that so wrong? No. My cat tells me it's not. He is my moral compass. He also runs around with poop stuck to his back leg, so let's take that for what it's worth. This story is 100% ... Continue Reading

Community Question: How Do You Simplify Your Life?

Last Updated on January 8, 2019 by Crunchy Betty

Community Question: How Do You Simplify Your Life? 1

It's just you and this orange:     On a steamy summer day, you're sitting at a table in front of this orange. You're going to eat it. It's one of the most simple things on the planet, receiving sustenance from food. The air is still and nothing exists but this simple act of feeding yourself. One fingernail slides beneath the peel and the fresh, pungent scent immediately zings up your nose. You're reminded of summer camp at Lake Wanabego - of the blistering sun pouring ...
