michael pollan speaking at the khol center. talking to madison folks about local, organic, seasonal, food. preaching to the choir here, i bet. i don’t think the kohl center has ever heard this much cheering and applause. the place was packed for the ‘go big read’ event put on by the university. luckily reina and i biked to the kohl center in enough time to get spots after cooking up some of our own fresh vegetarian food.

at a dinner lecture at my former roommate's, lisa, new house. she stays at an international graduate student co-op, called the knapp house, in downtown madison. once a month the roommates bring in a speaker, invite over a bunch of people, cook a delicious selection of appetizers a meal and dessert, and stock the wine and beer selection. erin and i went to the talk on 'things you've always wanted to know about sex, but never asked'. the woman who owns the store - a woman's touch - on the near east side gave the talk this time around. we were enlightened about the g-spot, if size really matters, sex-ed in israel, and difference in attitudes towards sex passed on to girls vs. boys.
