#domestic goddess
- 3.9/5.0
- surprisingly i never read this text in entirety as a young adult. figured it was about time to get around to reading it once and for all. was & was not what i was expecting. at times i found it to err on the side of plain old weird. the references to this text will for sure have a stronger meaning to me as the set up on 1984 is really quite scary. it was a quick & easy read with an interesting story line, so much so that i watched a film adaptation, but felt it fell short. why a 3.9? well i guess because it was all a bit predictable & at times i felt a little extra. nonetheless i think it is a book that everyone should read because it does make for good discussion.
- had a dogged copy in my library… will purchase a new one to replace it. don’t think it it’s totally necessary to own, but because it takes up such little space why not?
Media Control: The Spectacular Achievements of Propaganda
Noam Chomsky
grabbed this book from the library shelf while walking out the door. another pocketbook story, but this time it wasn’t fiction. very much pleased with the random pulling
- 4.5/5.0
- after reading this text, i think from now on i would rather read noam chomsky than listen to him speak. truly enjoyed this read because it was fitting for the times although published in the 90′s & simultaneously helped me brush up on world [gov.] history, as well as introduce me to some information i was not familiar with.
- if this book comes your way i would read it. literally took me the equivalent of a single commute. if not i would suggest reading at least one of noam chomsky speech or at least part of one just for the heck of it. easier on the brain than i thought. doesn’t take up too much space on the shelf so i’ll keep it for now, don’t know if its necessary.

so this text somewhat speaks for itself. for some reason it was also in the why have i not completed you yet? pile. a text for anyone who is interested in the inner & outer workings of these worlds… a friendly reminder & mind blower all at the same time. take your time with it & like all great works revisit…
- 5.0/5.0
- a simple & introductory text to hermetic teachings. coupled with good intent this text can take even a novice quite far. from the principles of polarity, to the principles of gender, the kybalion easily takes one through the highs & lows of life.
- i highly suggest purchasing this book for your personal library. it is filled with life gems & words of wisdom
Last month my King man blessed me with a beautiful introduction to Shojin Ryori.
There’s a lot of information on this style of cooking & I highly suggest those interested in Zen Buddhism, Tea, Conscious Eating, Vegan/Vegetarianism, Japan, Foraging, Tofu, or just food in general to take a deeper look into it. Shojin Ryori cuisine is basically the foundation of the Japanese Kaiseki meal style and is just generally really quite interesting.

haven’t worked out in months & my body looks & feels like it… did a few dance routines today, but found this one the most enjoyable

“im too pretty for this” is a valid excuse
This is how i feel everyday at my job lol
I think that is my MO for many things in life. I am too pretty to pump gas (excuse to get hybrid cars repeatedly) is probably my favorite. I know how to do it, but I don’t drive much and my SUV is a plug-in hybrid. My Husband pumps it for me whenever He drives my SUV. I don’t take out the trash and recycling either.
