There's no etiquette. Just unfriend.

Medium heat, although it depends on the kind of frying pan you use.

I don't cough, man. I'm a pro.

I just inhaled a goat cheese omelette and broccolini with garlic and lemon doused in olive oil. I also tried fixing the omelette differently today, which was to get a really good layer of olive oil in a big pan, pour out the eggs and let them free-form. It. Was. Amazing. Puffy, light and a little crispy.

Oh come on now. I don't eat wheat, so I don't go to pasta joints. I also don't get stroppy because they don't have anything I can eat. If my friends want to hang out with me, we find a place where there's food everyone can enjoy. Leave off.

Oooh - I have brussel sprouts. How do I do it? Halve them?

Absolutely! Here you go. http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.…

I'm going to make a really comforting veggie curry. Cauliflower, potatoes, chickpeas and green peas, with coconut milk. It's delicious and also healthy enough so I feel like I'm doing something good for myself.

At almost $50/bottle, not a damn thing.

I think the problem is (a) the company promotes the hell out of the healing properties and (b), it attracts people who are natural healing enthusiasts and aren't going to do their due diligence. Most of the people who I know who sell Young Living are totally against conventional medicine, and thoroughly convinced that…

Yes - totally agree.

Oh yeah, they absolutely do. Young Living is by no means the sole offender.

Young Living products are actually pretty nice. They're high quality and have some good formulations. But they're overpriced essential oils, not miracle drugs, and the reps are really hard-sell snake oil salespeople. Anna is clearly not well educated, in a tough situation, and I can see how they bamboozled her. That…

Hah! Maybe that will be my 5th career, once I've sorted out my own issues. :)

People can and do change. The difference is that change in your childhood-20s seems natural, because everyone is trying on different personas. That's not change so much as growing up. Personal growth and change post 30 is usually a deliberate choice that takes work, commitment and generally professional facilitation,…

Boundaries. When she starts talking about weight, say "Mom, I'm happy that you're happy with yourself. I'm happy with myselfy, and I've said before that I don't want to discuss this. Let's change the conversation." If she doesn't, "Mom, I'm not going to talk about this with you. Let's talk another time when you can…

Acting is a craft, and it takes constant practice and refinement. That tends to go double for child actors, who often don't undergo additional training as they reach adulthood. They rely on what worked for them as kids. They get into the business because they have a spark, can follow directions and natural instincts,…

I really like Kristen Stewart. I haven't been impressed with her acting, but I think she has a lot of potential, if she takes the time to get really good training...cough cough meisner method. cough cough. But I seriously love how she doesn't want to play the game and will not play the game. She is unflinchingly…

The people I know from Philly all knew he was a creep. I've heard "Don't let him near your daughters" from more than one person.

Hah! I do tend to stick to cuisines that don't have a lot of wheat—most Chinese, Vietnamese and Mexican restaurants are fine. Even pub food is ok, as long as I stay away from things that have sauces. My allergy is generally mild; if wheat is highly processed, like in soy sauce, I can digest it. But I can't do straight…
