Personal Narrative-Julia Child
I honestly don't think it's possible to look at photos of Julia Child cracking up in the kitchen and not feel better about life. Her enthusiasm was — is! — infectious, and these photos prove it. Whether wielding a large knife over a row of chickens, or gleefully cutting into a fish the size of her torso, you know in those moments there was nowhere else she'd rather be. Cooking is supposed to be fun, people! And Julia would never want us to forget it.

I'm not exactly sure what she is eating here (a cake? with lobster?), but she's making me believe it's the best thing that's ever happened.

Pin it
Woo-hoo! It's hammertime!

Pin it
Basting a turkey is marvelous. And she is marvelous.

Pin it
Those chickens don't know what's coming.

I can learn to get along with my peers despite very strong contradictions in our ethics and styles. I can watch late night episodes of criminal minds and stay home alone with not an ounce of fear. But, there is one thing that makes shivers go up my body, tears stream down my face and my whole body just freeze.…

    I yearn to shatter my chrysalis To rupture my chrysalid womb to find myself in another realm without protection As I forgo my haven of Safety and security I find the life and blood pumping into my wings My wings crinkled and wet As delicate as rice paper Gaily intricately coloured in scarlet hue, those vivid yellow blades All radiant and fiery as the sunset A throbbing pain shot through each spread of these newly acquiesced defenseless delicate appendages…

    The Stories We Tell Ourselves Stories are fundamental to how we see; understand the world and essentially ourselves. We are the stories we tell ourselves. Or, as Thomas King puts it: “The truth about stories is that that’s all we are” (King 2). From stories of creationism to personal experiences, historical narratives, to social transgression, racist indoctrination to works of contemporary Native literature, a piece of who we are lurks in the details. This piece of us, of who we are has the potential to be both dangerous and at the same time wonderful.…

    I've listened to Art for many years and have always enjoyed the content and how he presented himself on the show. I have listened to George and liked it until he turned into a corporate puppet, and completely destroyed the show with more commercials than guest content. However, Heather is still green, and has a lot of growing and learning to do, but the vast majority of great people that we know and have read about were not always that great in the beginning but learned and matured over many years of hard work and dedication. She is a few months in and is improving and, If you must listen to Art, there are a few stations on Tunein radio that broadcast his old shows twenty-four seven. I'm just astounded by all the abhorrent remarks that have…

But how she does these things and how she is so wise at such a young age, no one knows. I don’t believe anyone will ever know. She in herself is as beautiful as a brightly colored monarch.
