The Beginning

So, this is my first blog. And I must confess I'm probably a little rusty at this--it's been a while since I've done any kind of blogging. . . my Myspace days are far in my past. But let's get to the main reason I'm writing. A school project of course; but this is in no way a bad thing. See, the Cast Your Bucket Down project is to get the Creative Writing students of BTW High School to practice the teachings of Booker T. Washington. And so in honor of Mr. Washington himself, it's time for us to get off our butts and to get to spreading word around our community on things that we care about. So this takes me here to blogger.com. My purpose is to share with all you lovely readers that I am a vegetarian from Alabama. And I know what you are all thinking, "they eat something besides road kill and wild game down there?" The answer is yes, we do, or at least I do. Not all of us are innutritious. In fact, that is my other purpose for this blog. I want to prove to all of you, that living a nutritious, healthy, vegetarian lifestyle is possible. So keep an open mind. In my next blog, I'll explain more on my choice to be a vegetarian and how I can help you too. But until then, I challenge you to consider some reading. Try Upton Sinclairs "The Jungle", I promise it will open your meat-eating eyes.
