Fantastic article, although I wonder if we’d choose the more convenient option even without the stimulus of fast food ads. Convenience has become a most detrimental addiction in our society, and lies at the root of so much dysfunction-- emotional, spiritual, physical, cultural, financial, economic, political, and environmental. Bravo to those reconnecting through CSA’s, gardening, and farmers’ markets. I’ve also found the dinner table to be a powerful part of coming back to what is important and real.

Jackpot! I live in Missoula and have grown to LOVE these cakey, chocolatey, spiced cookies with the rich aroma of pumpkin-- perfect for fall. I was just wondering how I might procure the recipe...Thanks Culinate!
