Breakfast in Bed

A friend sent me a link to his friend’s amazing food blog called Sybil and Alice today, and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about this one recipe all day. Granted, I only ate a banana for breakfast, a Subway veggie sandwich for lunch and a veggie patty for dinner, so I’m obviously feening for prosciutto. (I had to look up “feening” on urbandictionary, ha). This...

Tom Friedman is Pro-immigration →

“Went to a big Washington dinner last week. You know the kind: Large hall; black ties; long dresses. But this was no ordinary dinner. There were 40 guests of honor. So here’s my Sunday news quiz: I’ll give you the names of most of the honorees, and you tell me what dinner I was at. Ready?

5 reasons to be grateful for today:

5. It is a beautiful, sunny 73 degree California day. It’s in the high 40s on the east coast. We’re practically still on Spring Break! And tomorrow we’re going to the beach… 4. Bikram Yoga has been kicking my butt all week, but the soreness is going away and instead I feel healthy and happy. One step towards better discipline. 3. I am free from obligation to anyone or...

If you love someone, set them free.

pineappleupsidedown: If you love someone, ask them for nothing. Don’t hold them back from their destiny. Don’t keep them from going off in search of their own answers. Don’t ask them for commitment. You will know commitment is real when it is something given willingly and not as something obligatory. Don’t ask them for promises. If you are patient, if you have faith, you will know in your...

Is the female glass ceiling still there? →

An interesting read from the inner workings of Newsweek, describing the struggle of females to rise the ranks of a previously testosterone-fueled news magazine. Have things changed? Or have men merely succumbed to the demands of women, erstwhile holding onto their chauvinistic tendencies. I’ve definitely dealt with interviews where I felt objectified by the male boss, and I’ve felt...

She can make you feel high, full of the single greatest commodity known to man: promise. Promise of a better day. Promise of a greater hope. Promise of a new tomorrow. This particular aura can be found in the gait of a beautiful girl. In her smile, in her soul, in the way she makes...
