My Own Stumble Upon List

Recent finds on the Interweb:

A new blog, whatImeanttosay.squarespace.com -- just launched this week, covering a range of interesting topics. A new daily stop for Daughter Number Three!

The Heavy Table, a Twin Cities local food and foodie site, has been turning out fun and tasty stories every day for months now. It's always worth a stop to see what restaurant or cookbook they've reviewed, but it's also full of great stories about food people like Bonnie Dehn of Dehn's herb farm and David Page, a local television producer whose show "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives" runs on the Food Network.

A great article by Sharon Parker of Minneapolis Observer Quarterly called Everybody's a Beekeeper, via the tcdailyplanet.net. Beyond honeybees to the native bumblebee, Sharon fills us in on the why and how of bees in our yards and gardens. Neatest fact: Bumblebees are best for pollinating tomatoes because of their "robust vibrations, known as 'buzz pollination.' "
