Food Safety Site

Just found a wonderful food safety site. Home Food Safety @ www.homefoodsafety.org I posted a link in our "Favorites" on the right side of our page. Check it out and let me know what you think!

Thoughts

I can't believe that it is already May!!!! I hope your week has been fabulous and that God has blessed you. Please feel free to post pictures or share your experiences on this blog. Also, I am curious if anyone has a garden this year? My family is starting our garden this weekend and I am so excited...my husband, not so much! I am using cinder blocks to border my garden and creating a raised bed. I will take a picture and post as soon as it is finished.

I was reminded today during my devotional, that "just as plants need water and sunshine to thrive and grow, you are dependent upon God's grace".


Have a great evening!!!

Above is a link to a great article. It definitely reiterates the idea of always reading the label on foods! Hope you all have a great day and enjoy the article.

Fight BAC! Brown Bag Webinar Series

Do you wonder what's really going on in the kitchen? When it comes to safe food handling, do home cooks really wash their hands after handling raw meats and poultry?

Grab your lunch, join the first Fight BAC Brown Bag webinar, and find out!

Dr. Christine Bruhn of the University of California at Davis will shed some light on food handling practices with her recent observational study of home cooks. Then, Kathy Bernard of the U.S. Department of Agriculture will share with us the tools you need to keep your family safe from food poisoning and educate others to do the same.

All BAC! Fighters in the U.S. are welcome to join.

Register for the webinar here!
