Vegan Momma

This past Tuesday, as I posted here, K spoke to my mentee’s (I volunteer for six fifth grade girls) about life in Kenya, Canada, and the USA, cultural difference/similarities, and her business. The mentee’s asked us (they included myself since I’m a small business owner) very good questions about entrepreneurship. We did our best to answer them. One in particular has a fairly negative view about owning you’re own business. She assumed that if you were a business owner your family did without because naturally you didn’t have enough to cover everything. We both assured her that there was no way we would be working for ourselves if we could not support our family. They definitely don’t do without. She wasn’t convinced. I imagine she picked her views from an adult most likely someone who wasn’t successful in their endeavors. One of the main reasons a business will fail is due to lack of adequate planning. I’ve wanted to own my own business since I was a child but it took a while to get where I am today.

Ever heard of My Blog Log? I hadn’t until I started visiting Dragon Lady’s World and Mac Bro’s Place (great blogs by the way check them out!) They have widgets that you can add to your blog if you look in the upper right hand corner of my blog you will see a few of the MyBlogLog members who have stopped by my place. I’m loving it. I’ve searched for veganism, bodybuilding, and raw foods and was happy to find communities/blogs that I actually enjoy! Sweet! I plan to check out more when I have the chance.

I think it’s a great way to virtually meet new people. I’ve discovered a few new blogs that I’m really enjoying and I’ve found a few bloggers, that I frequent, on MBL. I usually get a lot of hits per day (lots of lurkers) but I’ve noticed a definite jump since signing up with MyBlogLog.

I just signed up today so there and am still learning how it ll works. However, I did find a good article about it here.

Nikon D80

Let me start by saying this is just my opinion. The manual that came with my Nikon D80 really stinks! Gah!!!! It only supplies you with the basic information. I don’t want basic! I want advanced information. *Sighs* Yep, you guessed it I was looking for additional information that I just could not find in this manual. Yah know for the amount of money I paid for that camera (a little over $1300 when you include the lenses) you would think that Nikon would have supplied a better manual. Hmph!

Ok, I’m getting tired of this Blogging Template so I’ll be checking out WP Blogging templates and updating my blog. I’ve added a few new features on my blog. I’m still playing around and most likely will be adding more stuff.

I’ve declared today to be a free day which means I’m not working on anything related to my business. The work I do will be blog related. It’s a beautiful day outside so my daughter and I will be spending a bit of time outdoors. Aiyana has been asking me for veggie burgers so I’ll be making something tasty. I’m not sure what I’ll add to it but it won’t have beans. :-)

Aiyana making the faces on the chocolate chip cookies

We made more cookie faces yesterday, or I should say, my daughter made them. The eyes, nose, and mouth were made out of raisins. Aiyana was so proud of her cookies and asked mommy to share a cookie with her.
