Reminded of this as I sip on some lemon ginger water out of my nice 64oz hydro flask..instant calming effect. Swimming, bath, showers, hot tubs...these are all top tier healing rituals especially for us s3xual violence survivors.

I need to do the same with Native American cuisine, after this Thanksgiving and seeing this on my historical calendar app:

Don't hurt me BUT..Regarding MI Lt. Gov Garlin Gilchrist, another thing that would be quite b0mb is that he'd be breaking colorism barriers, pervasive around the world.

Having Black elected officials in the USA is revolutionary and important for historic and representation purposes.

SO about this post...

What made me the most happy is seeing how the Obamas let their daughters dress however they wanted for this photo.

Showing a navel piercing!! That's pretty crazy for a family that high up the food chain!! Many older generations are prly pearl clutching! Love it!

Where are my veggie Thanksgiving eaters at?! Show me what you're having instead of turkey or ham??

I made this "Thanksgiving tofu" recipe from justinesnacks.com. Turned out great!!

Unlike these turkey or ham eaters, us veggies feel ENERGIZED after eating our food. 😆

This was a very easy, perfect for a weeknight in dinner I made the other day: Lemon and capers tofu over vermicelli noodles (animperfectvegan.com) with a store bought sweet kale salad and whole wheat dinner rolls.

FINALLY watching "The Magdelene Sisters (2002)," and I am stoked. I borrowed a bunch of books about Magdelene Laundries from libraries across Michigan and have cracked just one. Let's hope this gets the ball rolling.

I made a baller snack too: jalapeño, mexican cheese, jalapeño popcorn.

Paradise 🥰

I LOVE HIM.

He has an engineering background, demonstrated competence in high political office as our lieutenant governor, started some sort of successful start-up, he has many exceptional attributes. I am betting on this horse.

This is my guy right here. I'm voting for him in the Michigan gubernatorial primary.

Here we have Chinese lemon jackfruit tofu (frommybowl.com) with yellow bell pepper over jasmine rice, garnished with sesame seeds, lemon slices, and radishes. 🤗🤩

A casualty event took place when making the lemon zest that affected my thumb. (aka I got a booboo 🥺😭).

Loved these interesting points Tim Wu brought up in this @theguardian.com article..I'm definitely going to buy his book.

His thoughts on how American tech firms have become so entrenched in other countries' economic systems & the impacts of that:

Did I show you guys my adorable Urban Outfitters pillow? 👀

I am telling you, upgrading your decor and living space works absolute wonders for one's mental health and wellbeing.

Everything in here is cute AF.

Bonus recipe: silken tofu salad (pekingplates.com). This is so versatile! I went with mostly green ingredients. it could have been better with some crispy wontons.

One of the most fun + delicious ways you can spice up tofu dishes is by making glazes/marinades out of exotic fruits.

Here is some guava glazed (doughnutlounge.com) pan seared tofu in Brazilian garlic rice bowls & monterrey jack quesadillas with the same filling & leftover tofu.

The chilliness and snow is afoot here in West Michigan, and I am PREPARED!

Scope the new Danner boots that have been added to my boot collection.

Extremely cute, comfortable, highly functional, and fashionable. Perfect for every day wear.

Isn't that shoe rack adorable too?! Homegoods baby.

Honey sriracha seitan "chicken wings" with ranch kale chips and veggies.

These vegan "chicken wings" are a protein-packed, filling, spicy sweet snack.

Palak tofu via mygreenpassion.com over basmati rice.

🌱🍜🍽

Another fun tofu dish with pureed spinach, tomatoes, onions, all sorts of Indian spices.

A good recipe if you need to figure out what to do with that spinach you bought. lol

Tell me about your breakfast habits, #FoodSky?! 🍽🍜🌱

I am a peanut butter and banana toast kind of gal. Here I've added chia seeds and agave drizzle.

I'll sometimes make a Japanese miso egg scramble or a healthy Mexican scramble/burrito. Cereal with protein powder and almond milk is good too.

I saw this mental health post that really validated something I've been thinking about...to really listen to what your body needs, to go with that flow, etc.

Mel B is one of my favorite not only female artists but advocates for gender equality and women's empowerment.

I grew up with the Spice Girls, and hearing her story of lifelong male abuse and subsequent mental health struggles hit SO hard.

Spicy pasta (dadspantry.com) with chickpea meatballs (dishingouthealth.com) and some awesome store bought multigrain bread with butter.

I needed to get rid of some habanero peppers, and this spicy pasta was a great, very tasty way to do that!

#FilmSky, what did you think of Sarah's Oil? (No spoilers please!!)

It looks super interesting. Going to see it tomorrow!

Love me some good films centered on niche American history.
