The girl effect: Invest in girls.

This is a must-see.  I adore the visual effect of the typography.

cake

Juno recently wrote about cake, asking for recipes.

I never lose a chance to share this story - The Year of the Cake, by Greg Walloch

I saw Greg W. late at night one night on Trio and a show called The Moth (a NY nightclub, with a literary storytelling series)- where for a month they followed 7 storytellers.  Greg's story had me *riveted*.  He's a NY comic, gay, with CP - and his cake story is phenomenal on so many levels.

I wrote him shortly after the show, and we have kept in sporadic contact since then.  When Toby's a little older, we'll make a trip to NYC to see him live.  I've tried to get various venues at work to bring him to up to RIT without much luck - but maybe someday ;)
