Michelle Obama’s New Book

Out today: American Grown by First Lady Michelle Obama.

The book is primarily about healthy eating but it also offers some interesting color on life in the White House: “Almost every night at 6:30, they sit down to dinner in the second-floor family quarters of the White House. They go around the table to say what each is thankful for that day, then repeat a blessing Malia and Sasha, now 10, came up with when they moved here — ‘We hope to live long and strong’ — before clinking their glasses together and digging in.”
