Farmhouse Delivery
January 20th, 2012
If you haven’t heard yet, Houston has a new local, organic food source, Farmhouse Delivery! And best news yet, they will deliver to your door! Co-founded in Austin in 2009 by Stephanie Scherzer and Elizabeth Winslow. “We wanted to encourage people to connect with each other and with their community through food,” says Winslow, a chef and former restaurateur.
Farmhouse Delivery Farm Members enjoy weekly or bi-weekly bushels of local fruits and vegetables – delivered to their home or office – and have the option of ordering additional locally sourced food (e.g. organic eggs, meat, dairy products, bread and artisanal cheese). Unlike traditional Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) programs, Farmhouse Delivery sources its food from many farms, guaranteeing that each bushel contains a unique assortment of the freshest local produce. Each order also includes recipes and storage and cooking tips, making meal planning easy as pie (there might even be a recipe for pie).
Farmhouse Delivery sources food from ten to fifteen local farms as well as local food artisans. Though the farms vary in size from a couple of acres, to a large farm on fifty acres, each shares a commitment to organic, humane and sustainable farming practices. Most of their farms are within 200 miles of Houston.

Shut Up and Play The Hits
January 12th, 2012
On April 2nd 2011, LCD Soundsystem played its final show at Madison Square Garden. LCD frontman James Murphy had made the conscious decision to disband one of the most celebrated and influential bands of its generation at the peak of its popularity, ensuring that the band would go out on top with the biggest and most ambitious concert of its career. The instantly sold out, near four-hour extravaganza did just that, moving the thousands in attendance to tears of joy and grief, with NEW YORK magazine calling the event “a marvel of pure craft” and TIME magazine lamenting “we may never dance again.” SHUT UP AND PLAY THE HITS is both a narrative film documenting this once in a life time performance and an intimate portrait of James Murphy as he navigates the lead-up to the show, the day after, and the personal and professional ramifications of his decision.
