Clear Out, Kristen Stewart!

Check out this article from Yahoo. You've all probably seen it once or twice today. I truly feel sick to my stomach from looking at this picture from Vanity Fair. Because Vanity Fair was being anything BUT fair when they chose skinny, white girls to grace the cover for the young hollywood/fresh wave of talent issue for March. What happened to being diverse? Sure, Hollywood is a predominantly white industry; I get that. However, we should not be ignoring all those breakthrough performances the past year that were done by actors and actresses of a different race. The actors from "Precious", "Slumdog Millionaire", and surely, countless others seem to have been snubbed in the company's decision.

And what about these girls on the cover? Don't they realize what's happened? Can't they see that their fellows have been left out? Why don't they say something about it?

Maybe I'm expecting too much from these people. Because from all my "watching from the outside-in" experiences, I've learned to expect disappointment more than anything else. You disappoint me yet again, Hollywood. Good job.

Hey everyone!! So it's been a few days since I last blogged. Thought I'd type one this time since I'm watching a super freaky case on trueTV right now with my mom. Anyway!

My sister and I made some on Sunday...I'll post a pic of it below. I mean, how could you go wrong when you have apple pie AND a sugar cookie??? You just can't, I tell you. But, life isn't perfect, you know? Well, I just heard that one of my Aunts was mugged today. The guy freakin' broke her shoulder while he was fighting to take her purse. Then she fell and broke her leg while trying to go inside her sister's house. So scary.... And she refused treatment for her shoulder!!!! Crazy woman...well, I hope you guys keep her in prayer. It's really tough being in your 60s and having to deal with serious...
