Yep, Seattlese. And a lot of the people with them are using them for a large portion of their foodstuffs.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

(I have more to say about Alice Waters, but I'm kind of flexeril-loopy right now, and I have no confidence that it would come out as anything remotely approaching what I actually want to say.)

Yep. Elsie, by the way, has been reading about the Inquisition and is convinced that she'll be tortured.
I think Alice Waters has been a hugely influential force in moving towards more locally grown food and home cooking, but she came off as unrealistic about the amount of time involved. Does anyone really think priorities can be changed enough that a single mother with a demanding job can spend 30 minutes, plus clean up, to make breakfast? Yes, it's a symptom of a society without traditional family support, little employer support for family time and reduced incomes, but that's a lot to ask of food.
