Along with the scientific explanations, Forks Over Knives presents a couple of real-life case studies of people who not only lost great amounts of weight but also improved pretty much all areas of their health. We get a closer look at the careers of Campbell, Esselstyn, McDougall and how they all, independently from each other, came to the same conclusion: A whole food plant-based diet is the answer to obesity and can heal or even reverse the most common degenerative diseases of our society. Bring a whole food plant based (oil free) individually wrapped snack (and more importantly... the recipe!) to share with everyone! Not sure what to bring? Check out www.SimplyPlantBased.net.

A Fisherman's View by Mike Bernard at the Osterville Village Library. Like stories about Irish bars, passive aggressive mothers, and Catholic guilt? After their mother’s death, colorful Irish patriarch Michaleen Fitzgerald gives his estranged children three plastic baggies – RED, GREEN, YELLOW - to scatter her ashes at specific locations. The symbolism is not lost on them. Theresa is the angry one, Richard is materialistic, and Fiona is crippled with anxieties. But they’re wrong. The colors represent something else entirely, and the journey to dispose the ashes and find their true meanings and destinations has just begun. With dark but tender humor, Michaleen helps his children take a different view of life, hoping they'll grab it by the lapels and swing it back onto the dance floor, but each child is harboring complicated feelings and secrets that threaten to tear their family apart. | | |
