All I know is that I want a .gif of Betty saying that she’s thankful she has everything she wants and nobody else has anything better. I loved that so much I nearly spit out my cake. Sad she’s just telling herself […]

Ooh, nap! Well, more like read, then nap, lose time on Pinterest, read, nap some more. I imagine lots of tea would also be involved.

As I’m off for a whole month as of this week (yay, summer break!), I actually […]

Woman-friendly legislation and some gay marriage support all in the same week? Am I still living in the same country?! Hopefully, because my optimism meter is actually starting to look less empty. This week, […]

I want to dive into a huge dish of this. Seriously, this article made my stomach growl. I am definitely trying this next week!

Oh crap. There are so many! Off the top of my head: 16 Candles, Pulp Fiction, Mean Girls, My Fair Lady, True Grit (the original), Moulin Rouge, and The Dark Knight.

Oh, and Kate & Leopold. Judge all you want, […]

Until I was six or so I wanted to run a Barbie doll store. Not even kidding here. I had this vision of this huge, brightly colored stores with a big circular checkout stand in the direct center. And thousands of […]

I’m a time-crunched grad student myself, so I kind of know how you feel. I think these workouts work really well for people in our positions!

I came in too late to see Zuzana in action, but I hear she was awesome. Apparently there was some sort of controversy when she was replaced by Lisa-Marie?

I haven’t gotten bored so far! It’s really surprising […]

Sure! The one thing I always hated about the gym was that it was so time consuming- the commute, finding a place to park, locker rooms, chatting with the employees, etc.

Oh, I just adore that song! I believe it’s my #1 most played on my iPhone.iTunes.

I was initially hesitant to write this given how subjective exercise is. I think many of us realize by now, either from activism, experience, or both, that not everything works for everyone. We’ve all got […]

OMNOMNOM.

I adore marshmallows! I’ve always wanted to try to make my own, but I was warned by Martha Stewart (not personally) not to attempt it without a stand mixer. Anybody ever attempt it with a cheapie old […]

“Why do you have to make such a big deal out of everything?”

If you’re a feminist, you probably get this a lot. If you haven’t yet, just wait. It’s coming, I guarantee it. Really, it’s gotten to the point where […]

I was wondering about the Pomegranate Scrub! I’ll have to give it a go. So far the only Burt’s Bees product I’ve disliked has been their toothpaste- too grainy :/
