Feminism: why you SHOULD be a fan

While I was wasting my life away scrolling through endless pins on pinterest, I saw a picture of a lady holding a sign saying why she needs feminism.  Under the picture was a description that started off with" I'm not a fan of feminism, but..."

Dear not fan of feminism, are you fucking crazy?

Why wouldn't you be a fan of it?

Do you enjoy having the right to vote? Having rights over your own body? The ability to have a life in politics and outside the home, go to college, and do you want people to believe the crazy notion that you are not just a baby factory but a REAL person?

Feminism is your friend, kids. I promise.

Contrary to popular belief, we are NOT a bunch of men hating, lesbians fascists. I love men but I love me more.  I care deeply about the progress that women have made to become equal in society and the progress we continue to make. 

We haven't always had these rights that we have today like owning property or getting custody of our children.  When you get a divorce you can thank those "dirty, awful, unnecessary" feminists.

I could certainly go on about this but hopefully you get the idea that you need feminism.  Both women and men need it.  We need a society of women who aren't treated like objects and can think freely and are praised for it instead of scrutinized.

Two more WEEKS!!

Allison and my trip is QUICKLY approaching...in 14 short days will be heading off to Germany.  We will be spending a week in Berlin and if anyone has any suggestions for what to do there that is fun, entertaining, educational, awesome let us know!!  Comment or email!!

Also, if you could all wish, pray, send good vibes, etc. to us that would be greatly appreciated for we may not have our train tickets yet.  Let's hope we do...should not have waited to the last minute to get them but they were rather pricey :(

Anyways, we are stoked and can't wait to get out of the country!!!


This makes me feel not so bad about having so many books : )

Girl crush

Lana Del Rey. Love her. The end.

Instant crier

I was scrolling down on my facebook newfeed and saw this posted by "Have a gay day". I read it and had to control myself so I wouldn't lose my mind.  It's stories like these and people like Anthony that make my heart swell with joy. While it is only a short blurb, it's still invokes strong emotions.

Needless to say, this made my day.

Whole Wheat Lemon Yogurt Quick Bread






















Fried Rice (I could literally eat this all day...eat with Yum Yum sauce!)





















Pumpkin Cheesecake Trifles



Stuffed Cabbage 
(Barefoot Contessa)-I used ground turkey instead of beef and the raisins really add a new level of flavor.  So Yummy!!

Quinoa with Corn and Scallions

Slow Cooker Chicken Philly Sandwiches

Chocolate-Banana Muffins 
I hate banana's, love these muffins!! so yummy!!

I want to live in a library

I love books.
I love reading them, how they look and even how they smell.

The other night I had a dream that the road I lived on was enclosed and made of glass rooms filled with books and they all belonged to me. It was marvelous! While I know I can't do this to the road I live on, I can certainly enjoy these books in my own personal library

here are some ideas for your personal reading haven

All of these were found on pinterest; follow me at Ladyjhawk24

My new obsession

My mom got samples of Shalimar and now I want to wear it every day of my life.  I am absolutely in love with musky/warm scents and this kills it!

Shop around and look for it. Its 100% worth it!!

Elayna Boynton's voice is killer!


Possible Issues?

Every Actor or any man I have ever had a crush on almost always is much much older than me.

I can not explain this

Christopher Meloni (Law and Order: SVU)




















Eli Roth (Director/Bastard)

















Zachary Quinto

















Benicio Del Toro













Richard Kruspe





















Christoph Waltz




















Notice any trends?!

If you are looking for a laugh...

I suggest you check out Zach Galifianakis in "Between two Ferns". 
Basically him and his celebrity guests just be jerks to each other...

Here are a few of my favorites:



 





and I can only find the link to the Oscar's Edition one, which is my personal favorite.
