Hello blogging world

This is the first post of the rest of my life.

I've been thinking about blogging for a while, but never could coalesce my thoughts to the point of figuring out what to call it and what to write about. I knew veganism would be a part of it. I knew dogs, the two with whom I live in particular, would have a role. Animal rights would have to be discussed. I knew food would be up there on the list, along with my often bumbling attempts to create magic in the kitchen. I knew living in DC would be a factor. But which one of these topics to focus on? And then I figured it out. I will write about all of those things. Not with any sort of plan of course. Just all of it--veganything. And everything.

So why now? Today begins NaBloPoMo. What the hell is that, you may ask. It is National Blog Posting Month, a less stressing take on the infamous NaNoWriMo, which I'm not about to undertake. Can't say I'll keep up with NaBloPoMo, but perhaps. In addition, today is World Vegan Day. Between these two ocassions, it was today or never. Thus it is today.
