    On Meal Delivery Services — Trying out Hello Fresh

    Now with Aia gone, I decided to try a meal delivery service. I ran into quite a few hurdles but finally tried Hello Fresh. I probably won’t be doing this again. Choosing the Service Meal delivery services come in two types: Prep and No Prep. I looked at both but eventually went with a service…

  • Things I Think About: Is Eating Local Even Possible?

    The core idea of eating local as I understand is Farm to Table. It sounds simple, but living in a country with varied ecosystems and even a state with various extremes I’m started wondering about this. What is local? Your country? Your state? Your county?
