I've had many people ask me about IDF and I thought this would be the best way to keep people informed so I'm not repeating myself all day long. We do some pretty amazing things a couple weekends a month, and I'm pretty excited about it, so please excuse me if I get a little teary-eyed about democracy and hope and progressive ideals, etc.
There may or may not be soapboxing in this blog; some issues we discuss are ones that I'm passionate about and I won't be able to help it. Especially since in the beginning of this program I'm still a little shy about jumping in with questions for speakers, so I may be doing some rhetoricals I wished I had asked.
I will also be writing in very casual voice, since this is mainly for family and friends, so please excuse the run-on sentences, questionable punctuation, and silly observations. If I had time to turn all of these posts into feature-story-quality writing, it wouldn't be a blog, would it?

I'm going to try to post about our weekends as close the their occurrence as possible while things are still fresh in my mind, but sometimes that won't happen. If you know anything about the program, you'll know that it has been going on for over a month now and I am just starting this blog. So I've got a little catching up to do! I will try to do it in as expedient a manner as I can so that you can all rest easy knowing you're fully up to date on the only interesting thing I am doing right now. Haha! (On that note, I may also be posting a little bit about our kitchen remodel from time to time. This can be the "what Mari does on the weekend" blog.)
One last observation: have you ever muted the food network and listened to Dvorak? I just watched Anne Burrell (Secrets of a Restaurant Chef) muted with the first movement (adagio, allegro molto) of the New World Symphony and it was pretty epic.
So, as Mr. Warner used to say (and I repeat way too much for a person under the age of 50): "Onward and downward, students!"
