Children are beautiful because they’re children. Not because we dress them up like Christmas trees to reinforce gender stereotypes that women and girls are merely decorative objects and not useful members of society.

It is the height of irony that women are valued for our looks, encouraged to make ourselves beautiful and ornamental and are then derided as shallow and vain for doing so.

Greta Christina (via feminishblog)

And when we don’t ornament ourselves, it’s said that we have no pride in ourselves and are really letting ourselves go. It’s a no-win.

I just got my pretty garland from this lovely lady! I was worried that they would get tangled when I turned on the ceiling fan but this is what they do when the fan is on high! Score!

Thanks Nichole!

Cast Iron Mostaccioli

1/2 pound ground beef or turkey

1 bell pepper chopped

1/2 medium onion diced

2 cloves garlic, chopped

2 cans tomato blended

Oregano

Olive Oil

1 box Rigatoni Noodles

1 bag Mozzarella cheese grated

Brown the meat in your cast iron skillet in about 4 tsb of Olive Oil. Add Onions, Bell Pepper, and garlic. Cook until the onions are transparent. Season with oregano to taste. Add the two blended cans of tomatoes and simmer. Add more oregano and possibly some garlic powder.  Simmer until the ingredients are less soupy and more of a ketchup consistency.

Add the boiled, drained Rigatoni noodles to the sauce in the cast iron skillet. Cover with a layer of mozzarella cheese and bake at 400 about 15 minutes or the cheese is melted and just beginning to brown.  Yum!

This is a nice effect. Although stop motion is the “it” thing right now, this music lends itself to the look and the painted strokes add a lot of energy and give it a dirty feel. It works.

I love this band. They all look like they escaped from a cult in California :)
