Emotional labor is real labor. The form it takes in our lives just varies.
I will never understand how parents can cut off their children over the matter of whom they love. I hope these women are the happiest in their marriage.
Ms. Steward on the Basic Human Decency fund and me on community capital: There are costs for being part of the community and you have to pay them in order to BE part of the community. At the time I rolled my eyes a little bit when Dad made that comment because I was just going to help a friend out and calling it a cost was overblown, but that wouldn’t seem like a cost to a single 23 year old.

Just read the first two volumes this weekend and they are SO GOOD. Now I’m sad I have to wait a year or more for the third installment.
*claps* It’s going to be so good when it comes out!
How did I not know that Extra Petite had recipes? That sauce sounds so good, I may have to buy more kinds of oil.
I picked up grapeseed oil this week just so I could try more recipes like this! Jean has started sharing recipes lately, I love them!
