Brilliant post. This is just so beautifully written and so true.
Kim, you are our poet laureate for local food. And you live what you write. Your flame burns bright.
Someone who understands why I brought home brocolli from the Farmers Market. My husband was said "but we already have brocolli". I said "Yes but this brocolli was just so beautiful and huge. I had to buy some. We can freeze it for the winter when the yucky grocery store brocolli comes in."
It truly is beautiful and I was in love with it.
Beautiful. Inspiring!
I have lived in Ann Arbor for 21 years now, but it has only been this past year (as I have intentionally sought out the local foods produced and people who also appreciate them!) that I have finally felt like I am putting down roots in Ann Arbor.
Keep putting words to your feelings, Kim. I enjoy the feeling of love and peace and community that I feel while shedding a few tears reading them. 
Hi Jen - you're always so sweet.
Buttercup - I wish I were a poet in training at least. Eating is so much easier than writing.
Melissa - I know just how you feel!
Emily - thanks!
Diana - you've said exactly what I haven't been able to articulate. What is it about food that it can have this effect?
