So, Aunt Toby figures that everyone is pretty well ‘sick’ (heh) of hearing about the food-borne disease of the week. So, today, we’re going to talk about where the rubber (so to speak) meets (or meats, depending…) the road, which is where the entrepreneurship road comes up to the field. This week has been a double-header for our area in terms of news stories on this topic.

another graduate of the Sarah Palin American History, Geography and Public Policy Institute bites the dust.

It’s 10-10-10 (woohoo! Is this magic or something..I think not), and a beautiful sunny fall October day at Chez Siberia. After a night where an Canadian weather system dipped down and sent the temperatures at our little weather station out by the barn down to 26 when I checked it at 7:30 a.m. Which means that at 2:00 a.m., it was probably 20. The killer freeze. Anyone who still had tomatoes, peppers and beans in the garden got up to a soggy mess this morning. But we’ll take that up later — to the news!

Sarah Palin is the ‘vampire squid’ of the GOP.

Tyler Clementi died because our whole society feels it’s OK to indulge in hate talk..all the time.

It finally stopped raining on the East Coast, so here we are. To food news on child nutrition, cinnamon and food safety.

Since we live about an hour from one of the great grape growing regions in the United States, we decided to go up this morning and pick grapes. Yes, there are such places as ‘U Pick” in terms of grapes.

Today, because Aunt Toby is sick to death of reporting the week’s food-borne illness outbreaks, I am going to home in on one topic: Vitamin B.

It’s raining. And cold. And Aunt Toby is feeling extremely grouchy, which means that I will probably bake something today with apples because I have a heck of a lot of them sitting on the counter. But, let’s not talk about ME, shall we?

To the news!!

Skills are what Americans need to get jobs..or make jobs.
