I saw that This is your Foie Gras picture and started sobbing.
To prevent E.U. regulations from interfering with the practice, in France we have a special (national) law protecting this shit as “cultural patrimony”.
As a culture, we’re proud of all the things we should be ashamed of.

It’s so easy to feel rich when you are poor. I got a small job at a health food store, I explained the use of the aoristos (complete with unwanted etymology, I am very thorough) to a few second year students and I sold nine of my books for very reasonable prices on a Dutch eBay. It is satisfying, which worries me - does that not mean that money has become an intrinsic goal? Or does really...
big bag of potato chips: $1.00
small box of blackberries: $4.00
I fucking hate how expensive fruit and vegetables are in comparison to junk food. It's like the government want us to be unhealthy.
1 kilogram of raw potatoes: $1.00
200 gr of potato chips: $1.00
Come on. berries need to be picked and transported fast and carefully... do you expect them to fall from the sky? Don't make excuses for eating unhealthily.

I had a genius idea - I got all the books I will probably never read again out of my bookcase and put them on marktplaats.nl (the Dutch eBay). I get more space for good books+I get money (to buy good books)+other people get books that they think are good because good is subjective anyway. So far I already sold three!

I participated in the international vegan package swap and got a great box in the mail today from Italy! It contained: a jar of vegan nutella, jam-filled brioche, organic apple-raisin bars and mini strawberry pies and a bag of roasted pistachio’s (which I wanted to buy yesterday! What a coincidence!).
I’m really excited to try everything :)
I sent the following to Italy (I wanted to...

A friend of mine went vegetarian. And he’s busy bribing other people into eating no meat for a week. And I didn’t even try to convince him… just explained my own views. The only way, in my opinion. I’m ecstatic.

It hurts - compassion and this whole ordeal of “awakening and enlightenment”. Just like a rubber band, your character is stretched and in your very being you know there’s no way of going back. You see, compassion is an all encompassing thing, it overflows, and it will hurt. A…

My sacred spice rice
This is my favourite way to spice my rice (or any other grain, really). It’s sweetish yet a little hot and pairs perfectly with sweet as well as savoury. I like eating it on it’s own, too - I actually do it all the time when I’m broke. I don’t measure the spices, I think I use about equal amounts of everything except less of the salt and the cayenne. *your favourite grain...

Stones painted as strawberries when put around strawberry plants in the spring will keep birds from eating your berries because the birds will think the ripened berries are stones.
Brilliant! Too bad it won’t work with children stealing from my garden, hehe.
