My Response to the “Thinspiration” Trend:

Recipe for A FAT SLICE OF HAPPINESS:

1. Stop counting calories. 

2. Start counting happy thoughts. 

3. Add chocolate cake.

4. Enjoy life.

The end.

‎Eleanor Roosevelt understood that every one of us every day has choices to make about the kind of person we are and what we wish to become. You can decide to become someone who brings people together, or you can fall prey to those who wish to divide us. You can be someone who educates yourself or you can believe that being negative is clever and being cynical is fashionable. You have a choice.

Poem written by an 11 year old Afghan girl 

This poem was recorded in a NYT magazine article about female underground poetry groups in Afghanistan. An amazing article about the ways in which women are using a traditional two line poetry form to express their resistance to male oppression, their feelings about love (considered blasphemous), and their doubts about religion. 

One of the best articles I’ve read all year. Here’s the link

Hank's Tumblr: Three Bennet Sisters

edwardspoonhands:

So my partner in the Lizzie Bennet Diaries, Bernie Su, has already talked about why there are only three Benne Sisters in our adaptation (and five in the novel) and since I just saw a much-thumbed comment lamenting the decision, I wanted to put my two cents in.

First, our goal is not to…

I’m NOT a huge-reblogger of anything…..but I absolutely adore The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, and this is a great take on why his video blog can get away with only three sisters instead of five.

Zoom Super excited to have enjoyed my second-ever trip to Urth Caffe today in Downtown Los Angeles! This chocolate croissant was amazing, and I also ordered the Original Poached Eggs, served with bread, butter, two slices of tomatoes and some greens (I think in case you want to make a sandwich maybe?). Deliciousness!!

Step 2.  Put foil on cookie sheet. Spray PAM for baking on the foil. Create little baby grilled cheeses. Apply sharp cheddar cheese.

Step 3. Place in a 350 degree oven for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melty and gooey.

Zoom Earlier this month, I had been reading a random clip about “Tumblr feminists” and decided to ask my followers about what they thought about my blog. Although most of my followers responded with some version of “You are whatever you want to be, sista!” I decided to look up “tumblr feminist” (a version of “social justice warrior” on UrbanDictionary.com).  However, luckily, I have now come to the conclusion that I am NOT by definition a Tumblr Feminist, I am just a another foodie-feminist blogger who happens to be on Tumblr.  In response to this question, and my research, here is my understanding of what a so-called “Tumblr feminist” AKA “Social Justice Warrior is stereotyped as on the internet:  Note: 1. A young, usually high school or undergrad young woman who is exceedingly liberal in her political views and engages in crazy-ass discourse on the Internet. 2. Definition of Social Justice Warrior from UrbanDictionary.com : “A pejorative term for an individual who repeatedly and vehemently engages in arguments on social justice on the Internet, often in a shallow or not well-thought-out way, for the purpose of raising their own personal reputation.”

I am a Feminist. And my blog happens to be on Tumblr. But does that make me a “Tumblr feminist” ? Thoughts?

I love your blog! It's very educational for those of us who consider ourselves to be feminists in the making. Can you suggest any other feminism related tumblr blogs that I can follow?
menstrual-poetry

Thank you so much for the wonderful compliment! I am always willing to help mentor other young feminists. I have a link on my site that actually lists several other Tumblr feminist blogs (or blogs by Tumblr users who identify as feminist). Let me know if you’d like any other resources, there are some great bloggers who there both on and off Tumblr.

Zoom Spring Break! Finally had time to make dinner for the boyfriend at his place (he has a gas range stove, which makes all the difference). This was a major Hungry Feminist win, and these are some of my favorite things to make. Simple, but delicious.  The Menu:  - NY Strip Steak, covered in a Texas BBQ rub and Lawry’s Seasoned Salt. Browned in the pan with butter, and then finished off in the oven.  - Mashed potatoes with real butter and freshly cracked pepper. - Sautéed spinach with olive oil, salt, pepper and a little under half a can of cream of mushroom soup. The cream of mushroom soup adds a nice creamed spinach texture without using a ton of dairy.  - Corn on the cob, roasted in the oven with a little bit of olive oil.
