First attempt at blogging

Okay, right off the bat, here are the essentials:

• I am a law student. This means:
• I have no time.
• I have no money.
• I love bullet points.
• I hate vegetables.
• I am trying to eat more vegetables, while saving on both time and money (see above).

In addition, like most newly minted 20-somethings, I find myself living on my own for the first time (dun dun dunnn)! What that means in terms of this blog is that I am learning (very slowly) to cook for myself. This brings me to a very important point that I will also now bullet, to emphasize its important-ness:

• I am not a cook.

I possess no cooking skills. I think I have three spices in my kitchen. I have never broiled anything. However, this year I have decided I need to learn how to eat more vegetables; this is mainly for obvious health reasons. I don't like it, but there's very little going around it. I will never give up meat (see: disclaimer), but I will now try to pair my steaks and chicken with some greens and figure out how to make it work.

This should be fun. Finally, in addition to "vegetables," V is also for...
