Food Revolution Day

Posted on April 19, 2012 by MaryJane

Ready for a revolution?!?

Grab your pots, pans, and plates, ladies … May 19 is Food Revolution Day!

Organized by the Jamie Oliver Foundation (You remember Jamie, right? That cutie-pie British fella formerly known as “The Naked Chef” …?), Food Revolution Day celebrates the chance to share your food knowledge, know-how, resources, and recipes.

If I know my farmgirls, you gals are all over this one already.

Inspiring change and living healthy … that’s kind of our thing, right?!

So, ready to revolutionize??
