The expanded cooking actually came before the conversion to veg. My boyfriend is veg and I really only cook when I'm with him. I've had lots of fun converting my mom's traditional Mexican dishes to vegetarian ones (making vegetarian Pozole right now with beans in place of pork). Thanks for the iron supplement tip! I…

Alright guys, day 4 on going full vegetarian and I don't think I'm going back. I never liked meat much to begin with, I'll only miss two things: carnitas tacos and bacon wrapped jalapenos. But other than that I think it will be a piece of cake. Any tips? Food ideas? Websites?

Yeah, being a latina myself I wish that was true, but it isn't. Others have posted statistics and though I am very proud that latino support of marriage equality has increased, it is not on level with non-hispanic whites yet. Black and latino people tend to be more religious than white people and religion is…

I'm about 30 minutes from the closest WinCo. My new favorite place is Sprouts, it's not as cheap as WinCo (though it's not as expensive as people seem to think it is) but their produce is better and they have some of the more rare grocery items.

The one thing I miss about living in the wannabe-hick part of Southern California is WinCo. I love WinCo. I miss you so much WinCo.

That picture is like me every Friday night after I get to my boyfriend's house. Poor guy.

Yeah, it was mildly amusing but I think Mae Whitman was quite exaggerating the hilarity.

I'm not very offended by what you said, but some other comments were more bothersome than yours. I agree that its doesn't seem in either of their personalities that this is a sexual thing,

Yeah it's pretty sad.

Well you said "look at them" and the appearance part was not directed toward you but other commenters. Second of all, creeps are creeps so him being a child and she an adult wouldn't matter if she was a creep. The size queen thing is a reasonable argument, but then again, we don't know Justin's size (and no, you can't…

And I am not trying to convince you to put adoption on your radar, but I think it's a conversation worth having as a society because it is a thing that many other might want to discuss. We talk frequently about abortion and adopting, but we don't talk often about giving your child up for adoption. And it should be a…

Seriously guys? I don't like to make assumptions on whether someone is a creep or not based on the attractiveness (or lack of) of either party.

Yes, presumed to be the father by default. But that's just the default, meaning what is put down if nothing is said. With minimal effort the birth certificate will have the correct name on it.

Why do people keep saying this? This is only true if a) they were living together at the time of conception and b) another man doesn't come forward and claim to be the father but Kris does.

I think the idea wasn't that we should pick on her for these things, but we pick on famous young women (like Taylor Swift) of a comparable age for lesser or equal things while we seem to adore Jennifer Lawrence. The double standard is just weird.

I didn't say abortion can't be a part of family planning nor am I talking about people who have their newborns taken away from them. I am talking about pregnant women and girls who make the conscious decision to carry their pregnancy to term and giving the baby up for adoption. And abortion and adoption don't need to…

Black, Asian, and Latino infants are in less "demand" than white infants, but they are still in high "demand". It is very sad that many children never get adopted, but family planning is about choosing under which circumstances you become a parent and how. That includes being able to give an infant up for adoption and…

Yes, but not newborn infants. There is a line out the door to adopt newborn infants of all races. The foster care system contains mostly children who were taken away from their birth families. And not everyone is equipt to be a foster parent. In fact, if you are hesitant about being a foster parent, whether that is…

When I was pro-life I just saw miscarriage as the baby getting sick and dying. Remember, people who are pro-life (who aren't solely woman haters) see the babies as separate people attached/sharing a body with the mother. Unless you can control the process that caused the fetus to miscarry, it wouldn't be murder or…

No way. White people think they have a corner on bigotry, wait till they realize that Latino Americans from different countries HATE each other. Now this is HUGE generalization, I'm a Mexican-American and I'd vote for a Cuban, Salvadorean, etc American that shared my same political beliefs and I'm sure most Latinos…
