If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you’ll know that every once in a  while I post the lateest in news releases related to food.  Most of the time these are unfortunate reports with subjects like “recall”, “outbreak” or “contaminated”.  This kind of news is necessary but unwanted.  The news I have to share tonight is the kind that the Christmas season is good for.  It’s the kind that makes you smile inside and want to do something yourself.  so let’s have a look, shall we?

• In Tyler Texas, a group of Police Department volunteers are donating to the local Rescue Mission.
• Kalamazoo police Detectives are joining in as well, and they need your help.
• New York City’s Food Bank for NYC’s Celebrity Lunchbox Auction was a pretty big affair.
• Milwaukee Students donate 12,000 food items to the Hunger Task Force.
• And as a final note, Truckers in Saskatchewan donated  over $3,000.00 to Food For Friends.

I hope I have as many heartwarming things to report throughout the rest of the year.  Bor now though, I’m pretty happy that everyone seems to have found a little Christmas spirit, even in a year wth a painfully slow economy.
