Women's voices not being heard is the root of many of the problems of the world.

The best thing you can do for someone is make them a beautiful plate of food. How else can you invade someone's body without actually touching them?

I don't have any stigma attached to my body. When I'm in my own private space, I have very little on.

If you have children in your house you have Frosted Flakes.
