Posted By Rhiannon Fionn-Bowman on Mon, Oct 11, 2010 at 4:23 PM
In case you missed it, this weekend's New York Times Magazine was all about food. If you're like me, I couldn't stay inside yesterday — the weather was too perfect, so I'll end up reading the magazine article-by-article all week long.

Growing Together, by Christine Muhlke
An open letter to the next farmer-in-chief, by Michael Pollan
Recipe Redux: The Community Cookbook, by Amanda Hesser
Slide show: Food Groups, by Lucas Foglia
A mealtime manifesto; An interview with foodie author Laurie David, by Deborah Soloman
