This Week's Recipe: Spring Vegetable & Bean Soup from Jamie Oliver
 This recipe is from Jamie Oliver's book, "Jamie's Food Revolution: Rediscover How to Cook Simple, Delicious, Affordable Meals" (read our review here).
This young chef is on a real mission with this book as well as his new
TV show, "Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution". It's all about learning to
change the poor eating habits so many Americans (especially children)
have in our country today. I've become a big fan.
I picked this recipe because it's easy, healthy and seasonal. Click here to get it...

fresh food movement in general, I decided it was time for Hammertown
to step up to the plate (since we constantly espouse the importance of
fresh, sustainable and healthy food) and create our own Hammertown
Community Garden.

Another Recommendation from Joan...
 My friend and neighbor (and Hammertown customer), Renee Price, who is the director of Neue
Galerie in New York, emailed me last week to let me know that her
gallery is going to be featured in this Sunday's New York Times T
Design Spring 2010 Issue.
The Neue Galerie is located in an elegant town house on 5th Avenue and
86th Street, and is dedicated to early modern German and Austrian art. I just love going there and I think some of our readers might too! Read more...
