November bites
*The results of this year’s VegNews Veggie Awards are in, and you can check out the winners here. Now I really want to visit Portland, Ore.!
*If you’re at Whole Foods this month, you might like to pick up a free copy of Delicious Living magazine—this month’s issue includes recipes for a vegetarian Thanksgiving meal. Or you could just visit their Web site. I’m totally going to make that pumpkin-seed spread! Their Web site also has some printable coupons to save you a bit of money.
*The Humane Society is holding several grassroots meetings in North Carolina in December, which you can see on its calendar here. There aren’t any in the Triad, unfortunately; the cities are Asheville, Boone, Charlotte and Raleigh.
*Google has a page tracking flu trends in the United States. It’s based on search activity, which doesn’t sound like it would be a particularly accurate indicator of flu activity. However, a graphic shows that it mirrors CDC data surprisingly closely.
