On the same day that my parents came up to help with the IKEA furniture, I attended a lecture on campus by
Carlo Petrini, the founder of Slow Food. He's Italian (and really does talk with his hands!) and the lecture was in Italian with a translator. It made for a slightly halting delivery, especially since some of the audience spoke Italian and got the jokes before the rest of us, but it was a good talk by a very interesting man. It's always good to be reminded not only to eat locally and support your local farmer, but also just to slow down your life sometimes, to take a deep breath and enjoy the view.

Seems like there are lots of foodies in Princeton too. Cool opportunity.
