Need a laugh? Um, do you have a black sense of humor? (Hint: I do!)

Warning: this addresses all of the Daniel Tosh/Rape Joke stuff, but Ever Mainard is so damn funny. (more great examples of how you can make it funny are here.) Runner up: Sarah Silverman. "I was raped by a doctor, which is so bittersweet for a Jewish girl."

I'm a big believer in laughter as power. And that a talented person can make ANYTHING funny. <3 Have a great weekend, guys.

Oh, right! Something sweet! Cookie recipe!

I meant to post this, so there's a double posting today. (Pfft, you know your flist is dead, come on.)

Where I'm from, we call these "Mexican Wedding Cookies," even though no Mexican I know has these at their wedding. BUT WHATEVER. WHITE PEOPLE IN TEXAS LOVE THEM. (My friends from Mexico call them Polvorones. I JUST CALL THEM DELICIOUS, HEY NOW!)

You need: food processor (or patience to mince toasted pecans until they're teeny), vanilla AND almond extract and about 3 hours, total.

( Mexican Wedding Cookies, aka Polvorones, aka nommy treats. )

(not my photo, but this is what they look like.)
