Today: Join me, by joining Project Feed Me
Hi. It’s me. So, today’s post was going to be all about our new French Bulldog. I know, I know. I quite literally just posted about wanting a dog, and not knowing how to take care of one. But before you go all PETA on me, rest assured that we’d been planning to acquire one of these little monsters for ages… and everything fell into place yesterday. And also, Nick knows how to take care of dogs. And I’ve watched several episodes of Dog Whisperer.
…but because I only have a BlackBerried photo of Clark (doesn’t he sound smart?), I think I will have to wait a day or two to dedicate an entire post to him.
He’s worth waiting for, two people who read this blog. If you need some convincing, here’s a little teaser:
So, with that said, I’d like to cordially invite you and yours to join me in participating in Project Feed Me. I first learned about this nine week program when scrolling through The No Meat Athlete on my Google reader, which referenced Natalie at No No 2 Yo Yo‘s promotion of this project… and so, I signed up. And I’d love for you to do the same.
What am I getting you into, you ask? It’s simple. Each Monday, a recommended food is posted. Commit to purchasing each recommended item, donating the whole lot to an area food bank or pantry on the final week of the project. The list of food items has been generated by food banks, with the intention of feeding families over the holidays.
While the project officially kicked off on October 12th, it’s not too late to join. Being the delayed person that I am, I joined a week late and will make up for it by purchasing both my chili and tuna contributions this week. Check back each Monday, and I will re-post the link (click through to sign up!) to No No 2 Yo Yo, as well as the week’s food item.
As the holidays approach, there is no better time to show gratitude for giving back. It takes very little to make a difference. I sincerely hope you’ll join me over the next few weeks in putting together some good food for a deserving family.
Also On Tap for Today:
- Get that weird Bumble Bee tuna jingle out of my head
- Dig out all my warm winter gear (it snowed in Boston yesterday)
- Ask my parents to execute an elaborate hoax, allowing me to spend some quality time in the attic, playing with Christmas decorations
Will you consider joining Project Feed Me? If so, I will consider liking you even more than I already do.
