Here we go... 0 weeks down, 52 to go!

This blog is a record of my attempt to take part in a challenge I noticed on reddit... 52 Weeks of Vegan Cooking - http://www.reddit.com/r/52weeksofvegancooking.

The basic idea is that each week there is a different challenge that posts need to align with, with the first week being something that I'm all about (perhaps a little too about)... comfort food. Here are the weekly challenges coming in the near future:

Week	Challenge
Sept.30th - Oct. 6th	Comfort Food
Oct. 7th - Oct. 13th	Breakfast
Oct. 14th - Oct. 20th	Meal Under $10
Oct. 21st - Oct. 27th	Obligatory Kale Challenge
Oct. 28th - Nov. 3rd	Halloween
Nov. 4th - Nov. 10th	Cauliflower
Nov. 11th - Nov. 17th	New to you
Nov. 18th - Nov. 24th	Lentils
Nov. 24th - Dec. 1st	Your Cultural Background
Dec. 2nd - Dec. 8th	Raw
Dec. 9th - Dec. 15th	Root Vegetables
Dec. 16th - Dec. 22nd	Soul Food
Dec. 23 - Dec. 29th	Vegan Non-denominational Winter Celebration!

Anyone else from the southern hemisphere might have also noticed that it's going to be a bit weird doing a 'winter celebration' in the middle of summer, but I'm sure I won't be excommunicated from the 52WOVC crew for being in the wrong season ;)

I'm hoping that this will force me to be a little more creative in my cooking, as I tend to cycle through the same recipes with startling regularity and being forced to cook to a theme each week should help elicit some creativity from me.

Time to start planning exactly what monstrosity I'm going to create for the comfort food challenge and get to work taking way too many photos of my food and pretending I'm a real food blogger ;)

I hope that if anyone reads this blog that they find something of interest in it for them... feel free to leave me a comment/encouragement/abuse!
