Vote for Vegan School Lunch Options

This just in from FARM (Farm Animal Rights Movement):
Out of more than 7,000 social reform proposals submitted to the Change.org website for presentation to the Obama Administration, our Vegan School Lunch proposal has gained 17th place! Only a couple thousand more votes are needed to place us within the top ten that will be presented!
Their proposal would "require USDA to facilitate healthful plant-based (vegan) school lunch options to promote public health, freedom from hunger, environmental quality, nonviolence, and kindness to animals."

This round of voting ends at 5pm ET on Thursday, January 15. To vote, here's what to do:

    It would be amazing if they changed school lunches over to healthy meals, what a huge change in the kiddos diets.

    I love the blog and book, your little lunches for your son have inspired me more than once.

    I am trying a recipe of your Magical Loaf Studio today.

    I think it is a brilliant idea. Thank you very much.

    I like your blog.

    Unfortunately it appears their server is having some problems... perhaps from too much traffic?

    I also wanted to let you know that the link on your sidebar that goes to "I'm worried about soy" does not go anywhere.

    Much love for your wonderful blog!
