I was online looking for some COLOURFUL kitchen utensils. I spotted these beauties from Horchow. Not only do you add a little COLOUR to your boring kitchen, but you can personalize the handle with up to 28 characters! I thought this could be a perfect gift for mom or a friend! They are only 25.o0 for 3 spatulas. Click on the picture below to buy these GORGEOUS spatulas!
I also spotted these prep bowls. These could add a nice touch of COLOUR to any kitchen. They are currently on sale for 14.99. What a great deal! Click on the image below to purchase these bowls!
I recently purchased my first french press. You will never guess which COLOUR I bought…. I love my Bodum and it is green. What could be better? Click below to see more fabulous COLOURS!
I am always stunned and caught off guard when people make comments like racism is gone, we have a black president. People also like to make sweeping generalizations about gender as well. Women are doctors, lawyers, police officers, etc., there isn’t sexism anymore . Women get diluted when they are very young with “talk” about how girls and boys are equal, but the reality hits hard when they find themselves educated and in their professional career and are making less than a man in that same position despite equal qualifications.
My dad always treated me and my sister like he would a son. He played basketball with us, he told us we could do anything we wanted, but unfortunately if there are systems in place that actively or passively discriminate against women, all the wishful, positive thinking isn’t going to breakdown the barrier of oppression.
Nicolas D. Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn are co-authors of Half the Sky, and the two of them wrote this book to bring awareness about the oppression of women all over the globe. Their book confirms over and over again that education is the most effective tool for women to control their fate and destiny. I would advocate not only women obtaining education, but also educating the public about the gender disparities that still go on today despite the many advances that have taken place.
The below video is a girl challenging the lyrics in Beyonce’s song run the world (girls). Do Girlz really run the world? What is the reality of being female in the 21st century?
Jim, Melissa, Seth and I went to the the festival of nations. We ate food from all over the world, saw art, and dance. There were 90 different ethnic groups represented in the festival. The best part was getting our fake passport stamped and having our name written in that particular language. By the end of the night, we had our names written in several different languages.
My favorite part of living in Minnesota is the way we embrace spring. I tell myself if it didn’t get this cold, I wouldn’t appreciate spring nearly as much. Every May 1st, the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre welcomes spring along with thousands of others at their annual May Day Parade. This was my third time attending, and it was by far the coldest. I was wearing long underwear. We had snow flurries. Still, the artistry of the costumes, the floats, and the music made the three layers of blankets worth it. I was completely inspired. Please, the people and dog watching alone kept me entertained during the blustery day!
