He has been describing what they go through to find food. Reading this series of posts and reading Darra Goldstein’s Women Under Siege, will make me thankful everyday I have more than enough to eat and I need to be more mindful of what and how I am eating. Yes, very thought provoking. Thank you for the great blog.

This has been a very thought provoking series. Very interesting, especially in light of the upcoming Thanksgiving celebrations. I posted a blog a few days ago about how Thanksgiving seems to get overrun by the more commercialized Halloween and Christmas. How I wish people would realize that food, such a base and “common” thing in our society, is truly a reason to give thanks.

Happy weekend,
Jen
