Plenty: One Man, One Woman, and a Raucous Year of Eating Locally by Alisa Smith

4.0

I liked this book. It was interesting, readable, didn't make you feel like a looser for not trying hard enough (although the lengths they went/what they came up with to eat were quite heroic at times.) It was inspiring, if not practical to attempt with as many mouths to feed as I've got, gives a person a lot to think about and any small steps toward complete 100-mile dieting are worth taking. Makes me feel very proud every time I walk out my door and pick veggies fresh off the garden plants to go straight into dinner, like, even if some of our family's food comes from 2000 miles away, some other foods are from 100 feet away. Balance....
