Link Mashup - Great Reads of the Week
As you may have imagined, I spend quite a bit of time on the internet. Much of it is doing blog related stuff - reading articles, finding pictures, writing out posts, etc. Much of it, though, I spend surfing around reading other people's blogs and learning continually about the things that I write about - nutrition, organics, green living, and the like. This past week, I've found a few things that I wanted to share with my readers. If you have any links you want to share (and yes, they can be from your own blog. In fact, I would love to read your blog!) feel free to leave a link in the comments section and I will most definitely check it out (and maybe even feature it in next week's Link Mashup!)
The Food Movement Rising - Michael Pollan wrote this article for the New York Review of Books. I love Michael Pollan, love the topic, and of course I had to share it with you.
The Changing Price of the Stuff You Eat - Good Blog has a very interesting graph about the changing prices of the foods that we eat. This isn't really an in depth read, but I wanted to share the graph because I found it very interesting which foods had gone drastically up in price and which ones have been reduced.
Community Gardens - Simple Organic had a great article this week about community gardens. It explains what they are, some benefits to having one, details about getting a garden plot, and how you can find a community garden near you. This is a fantastic resource and idea for those of you that are living in spaces that aren't conducive to gardening, but still want to try your hand at growing your own food. I know in my community, there is a community garden that is part of the food bank, and to sign up to have a plot you have to agree to donate a percentage of the food back to the food bank. Check out the link and find a community garden in your area!
Saving Money for the Person Who Doesn't Have Time for Coupons - Frugal Confessions has a great post about ways that you can save money at the grocery/drug store without using coupons. I'm planning on doing a post of my own like this in the future, but this will get you started. I especially like the tip about shopping for clearance items.
Again, I would love to check out your favorite blog posts, so link up! Also be sure and remember to leave me a comment on the Bamboo Tool Set giveaway letting me know that you left me your favorite link, and this will get you an extra entry in the giveaway!
