So we got married. It was fantastic, and everything I thought it'd be. Oddly, I feel the same, and I love it. He's my husband, and I'm his wife. It's simple, and right. I don't feel like writing any more on it quite yet, so maybe later? We also just drove along the entire coast … Continue reading Ruby Red Peach Reduction
My Ramblings
Back to TFA

Let me provide some background: Huma Abedin graduated from GW University, worked with Hilary Clinton since 1996, and is now one of her deputy chiefs of staff. So she's … Continue reading Weiner’s Bride: An Example of Sexism in Politics

So this weekend was fun. Friday we went to see a movie (Bridesmaids...hilarious!), Saturday we went to a TFA end-of-year celebration, and then today I'm going to study some Biochemistry and make cupcakes. Could it be more fantastic? Yes, one more weekend day. Anyways, enough dreaming. Friday got off to a rocky start. I had … Continue reading A nice guy
Beating of a Transgender Woman
http://www.change.org/petitions/demand-that-the-employees-on-duty-at-mcdonalds-be-held-responsible-in-the-beating-of-a-trans-woman Summary: A woman (transgender) tried to use the bathroom at a McDonalds in Baltimore, and she got the crap beat out of her by two women. No one helped her until a little old lady came and told them to stop hitting her. There were other people there. I don't think there is anyone … Continue reading Beating of a Transgender Woman
President Obama 2012
So over time I've come to realize that I am quite a strong democrat. I believe that every one deserves healthcare, I believe that taxes are a great way to pay for things like our roads, our military, and heck, our education. I believe in a sliding scale taxation process, where the rich are taxed … Continue reading President Obama 2012

So basically the story goes as follows: Cheesecake take 1: 1. I decided to make cheesecake on a whim. 2. I use a new cheesecake recipe..and read it incorrectly...(let's just say it called for 3 packages of cream cheese...I used one) 3. I mix all the ingredients together...and notice its a little water-y/eggy, think nothing … Continue reading New Title.
Ambulances at School and Cranberry Hootycreeks

Let me tell you something -- … Continue reading Ambulances at School and Cranberry Hootycreeks

Break! and dog sex.
Honestly, I can't express how overjoyed I am that it's break. I just finished my flipchart for Week 18, have my worksheets done, am spending time at home with my mom (and soon my dad), then jetting off to California to spend time with T-'s parents...man alive, it feels good to be on break! T- … Continue reading Break! and dog sex.
