About organic produce, I know the whole reason behind pesticides is so you don't end up getting inadvertant (and gross) protein with your fruits and veggies. How do the organics manage to avoid that?
Well, the protein reduction can be a benefit, but the pesticides are really there to ensure that the bugs don't start their feast early and prevent you from getting the fruits and veggies at all. There are non-toxic means of achieving this, they just tend to be more expensive and/or labor intensive.

Neglected to watch the launch. Which is ok, because the last time I did? Bad.bad.bad.
Happy Birthday, Kat!

Wow, Kristin. Meep indeed.
I'm more than a little jealous about the cross country drive, though. Haven't done that in years, and I'm getting a hankering.
Kristin, driving cross country is FUN! Pack your favorites and then you'll have the stuff you love around you. Then you can pack the rest at a later date.
Thanks for all of the birthday greetings!
Lori's still asleep, but I'm fixin' to get ready to go eat breakfast at Madsen's which has the cutest waitresses and best french toast ever.
