I am trying to get the word out to the public regarding the plight of my friends, Jim and Linette Crosby. Their mint farm, which has been in their family since 1912 and is one of the oldest continually operating mint farms in the country, is scheduled to be foreclosed upon on August 15, 2009…ironically, during the annual St. Johns Mint Festival. To read about the “Battle of Mint Valley,” please visit http://www.peppermintjim.wordpress.com. I am asking for any help you can provide…notifying your readers of their plight, publicizing their website (www.getmint.com) and the National Dram Sale, advertising the Mint Jam ’09 benefit concert…anything at all is much, much, much appreciated!

Good meeting you yesterday at the Yonge/Eg Farmers’ Market. Great blog and fine reading! Definitely will be become a favorite site of mine.

We were speaking about consuming every bit of an animal and I had promised you the recipe for tongue, the way my (Italian) mother and grandmother used to cook it. Let me know if you still want it and how best to send it to you (I have it in Word).

Cheers,
Fiore
