Craft Beer in the Southland AND Crafting Your Holiday Message

Biff Baker, beer enthusiast and contributor to freerangezucchini.com talks about the regioanl breweries, restaurants, and gastropubs where beers of a great many styles can be had for the holidays and beyond. He also suggests folks turn out for Vivien Sansour's lecture on Cannan Fair Trade at the Episcopal Church of the Messiah, 614 N. Bush Street, Santa Ana; on 12/14/11, Wed. at 7 pm. On the second half of the show, from an interview broadcast last year, U.C. Irvine Literature Professor Jayne Lewis talks about how she approaches the annual tradition of holiday letter writing. Her advice and insight remain as engaging and helpful as the first time she spoke.
