Hey everybody

Hi all! You have not been abandoned so don't worry. There are several more people who want to read the book/join the blog. I am in the process of ordering more books. I know that some of you are already finished with the book, but try not to forget what you read :) I am fine with people posting relevant posts. Know that we will take this blog through at least the end of March.

I am reading one of Michael Pollan's other books In Defense of Food. He begins his book by discussing the different reasons that people eat. Why do you eat? Does this involve your family/friends? Does it serve a purpose other than just providing nutrients to your body?

Also, I am planning a simple foods cooking night for early April where those who are part of the blog will hang out at school and cook a meal together. Just know that this is in the works. It's optional for those that are interested. Talk to you soon!

  3. I eat because I get hungry and because I need to put fuel into my body before I go swimming or before I go to soccer practice. I sometimes eat when I am bored.

  7. I eat because I get hungry, if I don't eat I get a hunger headache, and I need fuel for my body to function properly!

  8. I eat because I need energy. It usually doesn't involve my family and friends, my family rarely eats together at the dinner table. It provides me with nutrients and the energy/fuel I need to be able to function while im playing sports.

  9. I eat because I am bored, frustrated, tired, feeling that my tongue needs some flavor before it shrivels up and dies, exhausted, doing homework, craving something, around friends, bored, happy, sad, angry, trying to beat a world record and having the camera battery run out RIGHT BEFORE I beat it, arriving from school, in school, smelling something delicous, bored, and hungry.

    reasons I do NOT eat: My mom cooked it, it's the mystery meat from the cafeteria,and I woke up at 12:00 PM and I'm afraid of waking up my parents.

    I guess I need to eat to meet my interests, including hunger(except when my mom cooks it!>_<).

  10. On most nights I eat with my brother and my mom while my dad is at work. We usually sit at the dinner table and talk and EAT (of course)! My food provides the service of getting fuel back into my body after I have swam.
