A Graduate Thesis

In my intro to thesis class my professor asked us to keep up with a blog in order to demonstrate our growth as we go through developing a thesis as well as a way to document improvement as we work through the DSI program.

If you're reading this and you're thinking "I'm a little lost, what is DSI? What is this girl talking about?" That's okay. Here you can read a little bit more on what I'm going to school for, what I hope to do with my life, and who I am.

Okay -- let's get started. As a part of our thesis course we spend the first seven weeks working on a "mini-thesis." What makes this easy, for me at least, is that our prof already gave us a topic of sorts -- we have to work with one person to understand some sort of food related issue they may have and figure out a way to address that. Immediately what came to mind was my sister, because we had just talked about how much she wants to change her eating habits to be a bit more healthy, but she does not find many vegetables and commonly known "healthy" foods very enjoyable, nor does she have a lot of extra free time to figure out what she does like, how to cook it, actually preparing it, etc. 

Thought this would be a fun project not only because it pertains to food but also it'll be an opportunity to work with my sister and maybe it will help her gain some more clarity on what the heck my MFA degree is in.
