Happy Pride Month!
Last year for June, I made this rainbow crepe cake. . It was a crazy cake, and took a really long hour to perfect. I am happy to say that this years Pride recipe is a lot more simple.
They were a huge knock and one of the first products to sell out. I got a lot of questions about how I made them, so this year I decided to publish them as a recipe.
Pride Month celebrates queer history and milestones, and supports today’s society with parades, parties, and other celebrations. Some of these could be The Trevor Project , GSA Network, The Pride Foundation, The Point Foundation, and many more!
Taste: Plus they have a pop of orange in there to lighten everything up, which makes them perfect for summer.
Texture:They don’t snap when you destroy them in half. Instead they’re a lot softer with a little crumb.
Ease: The dough is super straightforward to throw together, the shaping is when things commence to get a little tricky. Dying the dough all different colors will take a minute, as will the shaping. But all things considered, even those steps are pretty simple.
The Dough
The dough here is super straightforward. It’s got all your usual i
Best-Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies

And, oh, did we make them better. Where the former recipe leaned eggier and slightly cake-y, this recipe is truly crisp on the outside, gooey on the inside. The edges rise and crinkle as the center falls down and cracks open to show glorious subterranean pools of melted chocolate. TL,DR: This recipe has more brown sugar, less eggs, more vanilla extract, and just a little bit of baking powder to help with the pan-banging method (read on for more info). PLUS! We only have to chill these terrible boys for 2 hours — not 24.
So we did , which were fab, but I wanted more. I wanted chocolate rivers, ponds, TRIBUTARIES, DELTAS.
And if you want those things too, you can’t use chocolate chips. Store-bought chips and chunks contain a coating on the outside that actually prevent them from losing their shape. The leading way to get melty chocolate pockets is by chopping up a big bar or block of good quality chocolate. Surprisingly, the huge 17-ounce bars they sell at Trader Joe’s serve wonderfully for this — and they’re like $5! I also recommend the small bars of Guittard. If you can’t detect those, usin
Bad Arguments Against Same-sex attracted Marriage
Abstract
This article claims that three frequent arguments against homosexual marriage - the definitional, procreation, and slippery-slope arguments - are quite worst, the worst of the lot. The definitional argument asserts that marriage just is the union of one guy and one female, and that the definition alone is a sufficient defense against claims for gay marriage. The procreation argument claims that marriage's primary public purpose is to encourage procreation, and so the exclusion of lgbtq+ couples is justified. The slippery-slope argument claims that the acceptance of gay marriage logically entails the acceptance of other public policy changes - notably the acceptance of polygamy - that would themselves be bad, independent of whether gay marriage is bad. While each argument has some appeal, and each has adherents both inside and outside the legal academy, each is badly flawed as a matter of logic, experience, politics, or some combination of the three. The article suggests that in the interest of focusing on the most important concerns about gay marriage, commentators should move on to other arguments against it that seem stronger and thus
