Well, it didn't really ever HAPPEN but it was threatened explicitly. Yeah. Fucked up. And probably probable in the clusterfuck situation of a zombie apocalypse.

WHY WOULD YOU REMIND ME OF THAT? *rocks and weeps*

I'm with you. I've got an incredibly tilted uterus and a short vaginal canal (my gyno went "oh WOW, you really ARE tilted! Your canal is like only this long! *holds up fingers a really short distance apart*" She seemed really enthusiastic. I wasn't sure how to reply. Thanks?) and having ones cervix hit with a penis…

Exactly. My SO is a *gasp* college drop out(!) and he's one of the brightest, most curious and intelligent people I know. He taught himself freaking Japanese on his own and taught himself to code from books. He's Mr. Physics and Math Whiz. I'm of a more biology, animal behavior, genetics, literature and…

Pushing Daisies. Your argument is invalid.

+1 I'm opposed to cutting anyone's bits without their consent, male or female.

My mom did the "if I ever get that fat, just kill me" thing about heavy women we saw in public. I also got the "do you really need to eat that?" question a lot as a kid.

:D I grew up in Wisconsin and have lived in Minnesota for the last 11 years. MW through and through! LOL.

;) I will disclose that I was a volunteer "brand ambassador" and did a demo for them once in my state. Got them into our local vegan boutique! I got free cookies and a shirt. A whole CASE of free cookies. It was the best day ever. :)

:D This makes me super happy! The folks who run the company are so sweet. They actually were on Shark Tank awhile back and the Sharks were so mean to them! I got angry and started being like "screw them, I'm going to tell EVERYONE about LL and help them". :) Small companies, especially vegan ones, are my favorites…

Yes, they are. As kids aren't something forced upon us all and are something folks decide to create and then keep and have in their family, they are a choice. They effect how you live and work and your general lifestyle/socioeconomic status. By choosing to have children, you've picked a different life than those of us…

Haha. Oh yeah, I know all about the "oh crap, I got responses" feeling when I post on veganism or AR stuff. I'm glad my comment was a good one for you! I'm also in between "cook" and "chef". I just go with "damn fine cook" and call it good. :) I lucked out and managed to get the baking gene, too. I know the pattern…

;) I have gray salt, pink sea salt, black salt (for tofu scramble!), smoked salt, habanero salt (for the boy, yikes too spicy!) and truffle salt. Oh and shitty kosher salt for pickling or such. Team Overcomplicated Pantries but Super Tasty Food! *fistbump*

I wish I knew how to heart people here! Fantastic comment. I'm sure your food is fab! I'm vegan too and all my vegan friends tend towards being really great cooks or bakers or both. We all looooove food, so it's not surprising. Do you work at one the major vegan restaurants or are you a more independent chef like Isa?…

Wow, that's a pretty negative reaction about vegan food. A lot of it is really good. A lot of dairy/egg allergic folks are really pleased that vegan options exist so they can eat more things. If you haven't tried vegan options in a while, I'd suggest doing so now. They've REALLY improved. The last 5 years has seen a…

Hey Elissa, have you and your mum tried Liz Lovely cookies? Their gluten free ones are SO GOOD. I'm not gluten free, I just honestly really loooove the taste/texture of their GF cookies. The triple chocolate mint is my favorite GF one. The only one I like better is the gluten-y Chocolate Mousse Dragon. Their GF…

They are the BEST cookies, vegan or otherwise, I've ever had. The only flop, IMO, is the lemon coconut. The Chocolate Mousse Dragons are AMAZING. Eat em outta the freezer! They don't actually freeze, they just get super dense and fudgy. Mmmm. Even their gluten free ones are fabulous! It's sort of hard to find them,…

I'm sorry if my tone reads as more angry/snarky than I intended. I'm just frustrated with my inability to explain well. It's flawed and there are things about it that I and my coworker friends will rant about (usually related to the folks who do the screening and how they can really F up your results if they are…

I give up, I'm not saying anything properly today. I'm honestly NOT doing anything more than trying to explain how the Powers That Be set up the dang biometrics to work. They got a huge freaking panel of "experts" who did all the number crunching. I'm just a peon and I have no say in the stupid thing or how it works.…

It IS amazing. ;) I also don't get it much due to it being a huge calorie bomb of sweet glory. Id' rather eat my calories in the form of chocolate bars or Liz Lovely cookies. haha.
