Theme: Beginning

Here is my image for the first week: Beginnings. It's a black-eyed pea. The reason I chose this is because my mom has us over for black-eyed peas on January 1st every year because of the good luck it will bring. If you don't like them, you aren't required to eat more than just one. For many years, that's all I ate: one. Now, as an adult, I don't find them as distasteful. I can eat a small bowl of them...more peas, more good luck do you think???
