conversating

last night, we had a very chilled-out dinner (and chimenea-heated evening) with our family-away-from-home. i'm still kind of amazed by the broad scope of our conversation: dogs, kids, education, politics, the future, china, foreign policy, religion, space, war, co-ops, organic farming and food, tomorrow's plans to start eating better.

i'm trying to figure out what a person actually needs to eat. after extensive research on the web (clearly the most reliable source for any and all information...), i'm left (again) wondering what to believe. everything is a racket; everything is sponsored by someone i'm pretty sure i can't trust. can i get a little truth?
