Akra: a Haitian recipe
Trump is a bombastic liar. Vance is in his pocket. Neither one should be afforded even the barest generosity or credibility. So it’s easy (and right) for us to dismiss their fear mongering claims against Haitian immigrants, on basic principle.

Donating To Food Banks
Today is National Food Bank Day. The day we honor food banks and all the great work they do helping communities. A food bank is a non-profit hunger relief charity that collects and distributes food to those in need. There are roughly 200 food banks in operation in the US that feed 4.2 million Americans. The first ever in the world was called St. Mary’s Food Bank (still open to this date). It was established in the United States in 1967. The concept went global in the 80s. Today, they play a pivotal role in our food supply system. Many people donate their uneaten food to these places to help others, but not all donations can be given out. Here are some tips you need to remember when donating items to them.

I Want to Eat With My Hand in Public
I was born in a country where English is the first language, but it wasn't mine. Inside my home existed another world where we prayed to blue-hued Gods and four-armed Goddesses. We watched Hindi language movies, and I rewinded the songs I liked. We bought extra fireworks and sparklers around Halloween for Diwali celebrations. We talk in a weird Hindi dialect. We ate my nani’s (grandma on my mom’s side) and my mom’s homemade Indian food with our hands.

Brain-Boosting Walnuts and Fertility-Enhancing Avocado
Ancient wisdom whispers that our bodies are microcosms of the vast universe. The cosmic dance extends beyond celestial bodies; it weaves through the very fabric of our existence. Imagine this: the walnut, with its intricate folds resembling the human brain, holds within its shell a treasure trove of omega-3 fatty acids—a boon for cognitive function. And the avocado, often likened to the female reproductive organ, cradles nutrients that nurture fertility.
