Foot CactusA foot-shaped cactus grows inside the botantical gardens at Golden Gate Park. Or do we walk on cactus-shaped feet?

I love vegetation that resembles humans. It reminds me of the similarities between us. Just add a little water and sunshine and we glow.

If you take a look around at decimated neighborhoods and schools, this is what’s missing. And this is why I love Alice Waters, slow food chef extraordinaire at Chez Panisse in Berkeley, Calif. I don’t need to go on and on about who Waters is, but I do love her focus on local and community. I have great hopes that the movement to rethink our carbon footprint will follow and not just stop at marketing en vogue.

Have lunch with Alice.
