We were having dinner last night (we brought in from a "local" restaurant after the dinner I'd prepared earlier in the day literally fell out of hte refrigerator onto the floor) . . .
And I began to tell my family about how we're going to be participating in the Local Eating Challenge starting in about a week. When the kids asked what that was, I told them that we are going to try to eat as much of our food as possible from local sources. While they were thinking about that . . . my husband said (WITHOUT COACHING) that it's not as important to have all of our food come from local sources as it is to be AWARE of where our food comes from. Stunned but thrilled, we enjoyed the rest of our meal and started brainstorming our future local meals.
