"Fai una cosa buona, pulita e giusta...."

That's how an email I received from Slow Food begins.

It continues: "Associati! Slow Food è un'associazione internazionale senza fini di lucro che si propone di diffondere la cultura alimentare, sviluppare l'educazione sensoriale e del gusto e promuove la biodiversità."

I think I already belong to enough clubs, frankly, but I am always tempted to become a member of Slow Food. It's a great movement that supports locally-grown produce and meat, and promotes the joys of eating and drinking -- how bad could it be?!

The Web site has lots of cool things to buy, such as the book "Osterie D'Italia." But it's not just for foodies. Here's something else you can buy there: "Guida alle birre del mondo." Tutti noi conosciamo qualcuno che e' appassionato della birra, no? (Io, si, di sicuro. Anzi ne conosco troppi.)

And of course, godi!
