I have been to two separate events for International Women's Day.  Yesterday I had lunch with Maggie Beer and Ronni Kahn; two women involved in food from different perspectives.

Maggie commented on the Food Police and how frustrating it is to not be able to give food samples at fetes and markets.

Ronni is the CEO of OzHarvest which "recycles" food that has been "left over" from certain restaurants and supermarkets.  She has lobbyed government agencies to change the rules so that this is possible.

Both commented on the fact they do not have Business Plans and at the same time they both follow what they love and believe in.  "Do what you love and the money will follow"

Maggie is 66 years old and they employ 80-90 people in their local community

Inspiring to be in the presence of these great women of food.
