If you have read this blog for any period of time, you know that I write relatively few recipes for being a food blogger. The last time I posted an actual, honest-to-goodness recipe here on Life Begins at 30 was ... uh ... November 2004, and that wasn't even my recipe!
I don't want to break my record now, which is why I've posted my latest recipe on Bay Area Bites instead of here. I hope it's an entertaining post, even if you aren't into Indian Spiced Peanuts, as it talks about my cumin-hating family and why cumin-containing foods are crossed out in some of my cookbooks.
This post is also to serve as a reminder to those of you who asked for one (Jane) that tomorrow is the next in the Berkeley Food Politics Lecture Series: GMOs Among Us: The Biopolitics of Genetically Engineered Foods. I won't be able to make this one, but am going to try my best to attend the rest of the lectures. I went last week, and it was very interesting. The format is an hour-long lecture, and then about 10-15 minutes of Q/A. Berkeley students then get to stay for longer Q/A session with the speaker after that. Arrive early to find parking and get a seat. Let me know if you have any questions, and if anyone attends tomorrow I'd love to hear about it!
