When eating food can be an act of support and civil pride, heck yes, count me as an activist!

All day today (Thursday) eating at several establishments around Bend earns money for Basic Right Oregon, the organization that is managing the ballot initiative for same-sex marriage (look for a more complete article in the upcoming issue).

In Bend: Broken Top Bottle Shop, Pizza Mondo, Strictly Organic and Sparrow Bakery all are supporting Bites for Rights.

Stop by.
