Vegetarians Rule

I have been giving a lot of thought to my web final. And I think I have just about decided to go with all things Vegetarian. My blog title is a tentative title for the web page. I wanted to make sure I am hitting all the marks for this assignment so I've done some handy cutting and pasting. The readings said that blog postings are supposed to be pretty short and I know I tend to run on... Which I'm doing right now. So here we go:
  • Why you are considering and/or discarding certain topics - I had three possible topics: Vegetarianism, Why NJ is great and possibly knitting or crocheting. I have pretty much decided on Vegetarianism. It is partly for selfish reasons that I am doing Vegetarianism - I would like to broaden my own horizons and I have been thinking about the different subpages and I think the whole vegetarian thing lends itself to that well.
  • Links to resources you might use in FW -
  • Ideas for color palettes - I am thinking hues of green and white. I KNOW this is obvious but it just makes the most sense to me. I might choose different color palettes for the more serious topics - see subpages.
  • Possible topics and titles for your 4-5 subpages -
    • Vegetarianism and the environment
    • Animal rights/PeTA info page
    • Cookbook reviews/recipes
    • Impact on health - Vegetarian lifestyle=healthy lifestyle
    • Vegan clothing
  • Links to good examples of similar websites
  • Possible original text for FW - I am still working on my original text.
  • Possible graphics or sources of graphics - I was thinking about using the websites mentioned above for graphics ideas or possibly scanning in some pictures of my own because I am not sure about copyright infringement - that is something I will have to look into.
  • Challenges you may face - just creating the website is going to be a challenge! This is all so new to me. It is exciting but I am also so nervous about this.

Hey Christy, I think your Vegetarians Rule ideas are excellent. I look forward to seeing your site and possibly using your information. Although I eat meat, very infrequently, I was raised vegetarian and some of my family still are. So, new cooking ideas are always welcome. Good luck.

Wow you were raised a vegetarian?? That's really incredible and it gives me another idea for a subpage. Raising your kids the vegetarian way. Thanks for the input. I am really looking forward to doing the research.

Ah, you're doing a vegetarian-themed site! I think I am going to go with a regional-themed cooking site, so between the two of us, we should cover a lot of ground.

I don't eat much meat outside of chicken and seafood, though, and do go for a lot of meat-free recipes, so there will be some vegetarian love going on!
