(Nothing But) Flowers

Ok, so this blog is hilarious: Stuff White People Like

It makes me laugh and makes me cringe with the embarrassment at identifying with many of the “what white people like” traits!

Speaks for itself. I love it.

You may have already seen this but if not:

Tina Fey, gotta love her, just blasted a hole in those who have been calling Hillary a b*tch and other nice phrases. Check out this skit from last Saturday’s Saturday Night Live. The piece on Hilary starts about halfway through the skit.

I love it up until the point where she ends with “Bitch is the new Black” (uh duh, let’s not forget our race-politics for the sake of feminism), but up ’til that point, it rocks! While I am an Obama supporter, the blatant sexism that Hillary’s run has incited has got me riled up.

My partner & I often talk about how much we miss our local market in Berkeley– the Monterey Market– that would randomly include rare fruits and vegetables grown in people’s small gardens or backyards for sale. You never knew what you would find for sale that week! It was a very special & unique place to buy food.
Well, Slow Food Boston is hosting a showing this week of a documentary on that same market called Eat at Bill’s: Life at the Monterey Market. I was so surprised and happy to see a documentary made on it! Ahhh. . . nostalgia for the Bay Area. . .
