Homelessness, Happiness Is, Mobile Loaves and Fishes, and Free Beer
This is (mostly) a re-post from the MLF blog. Support Mobile Loaves and Fishes if you want and feel free to re-post this to your blog as well.

Cheese: a preview, and why you should host a party
I love cheese. I love cheese and wine. And now, I even love cheese and beer.
