Lunchbox and Vegan...

Lunchbox ideas:
So, I found this link to share with all of you to help in your lunch planning ideas. This is not the lunch box system we use. As you can all recall, we use the Planetbox. We love it!
Now for the menu ideas:
Bento Menus
I am sure that you will find ideas to inspire you. But, don't worry, I will be back with more ideas for you and perhaps some pictures of Little Man's Lunches. Until then, happy lunch packing!

Vegan update:
So, I am looking at all things Vegan before embarking on my 46 day journey. I've felt enlightened and excited about this. It will be an experience in so many ways. Is there anyone joining me?

I am going to try new recipes every week and new products and I will report back on all of it.  I am sure you will all enjoy the entertainment factor in all of that. Let's make something perfectly clear, I am not going to be on the vegan diet that consists of junk food and candy. It will be a healthy, balanced diet.

Social Networking...

I never know the answer and still don't when I ask the question : "Do I want to social network this little blog of mine?". Honestly, I sometimes feel I am just trying to figure out what I want my voice to be.  Until I figure that out I shouldn't bother growing it. But, then I wonder if this is inhibiting my goal of reaching others. Does anyone know what I am talking about?
I've also questioned my social networking on a personal level. I don't twitter, facebook, etc. Sometimes, I think that this is a good thing, other times I wonder.

You see the good thing is that I develop my friendships in person, not through online posts. But, then there are times where friends are posting things online and feeling as though they have already told everyone. Ummmm...yeah, not me. So, you can get left out or left behind. However, you can also see who those true friends are, the ones that make sure they connect in real time. They take the time to be friends, not just convenient friends, but real, true, there for you friends.

However, am I missing opportunities to connect because of this? Could it just be another avenue to connect? But, not allow it to be the only avenue. Which is where I personally think that people go wrong -- they forget about having personal relationships, instead of just online ones.
Read about a teens "Amish Project" here. It might surprise you.

Healthy Food...


So, you hear from people that eating healthy costs more, guess it depends on what you are thinking about as far as a cost perspective. Here is some food for thought. Yeah, that pun was totally on purpose. ;) This is from Daily Spark. You can check over there for more, but I promise to post some of them from time to time over here as well.

It just might change your life. I think it can change everyones life in a different way. It is a personal journey. One that you have to go on, you can't ride along with others. It has to be YOUR journey. YOU have to be willing to say I AM NOT A FAN!

Lunchbox and Healthy Food Posts...

Hey, I am so up for this suggestion. I LOVE packing little mans lunches. Perhaps I can just share some pictures of his lunches. This is something that I really enjoy.

I'll also be sharing more meals, of course starting Feb 22nd they could be vegan. :)


Other organization topics to cover? Anyone?

Upcoming Posts and Vegan...

Take some time to think about this, some time to wrap your head around it and then jump in with me. I am going to embark on 40 days of Vegan eating. Actually, it will be 46 days. But, for all of you following along, 40 days will do. Seems funny to say 46, I don't know why.

Is anyone willing to jump in and do this with me for 30 days? 40 days? Anyone?

I am saying this, because I will be posting about this experience once a week. Sharing thoughts along the way and even recipes.

What comes to your mind when you hear Vegan? Are you up for the challenge? This starts for me on Feb 22nd. Who is in???
