I had to send my sister this video to show her why we do NOT need a stripper pole in the bedroom. *BANGCRASHPOW*

I haven’t seen most of these movies but I can verify personally that #13 is terrifying and deserves a higher place on that list.
#11 Trainspotting did me in for a couple of days.
1. TOMS Shoes in Silver Glitter $54 & Hand Painted $68 - Buy a pair of shoes and TOMS donates a pair to a person in need on one of their infamous “shoe drops”. Best part yet, you can join the TOMS team on a shoe drop in places like Ethiopia and Venezuela.
2. Bobbi Brown for FEED $50 - Limited Edition FEED 10 pouch with three full-size lip glosses. In partnership with FEED, Bobbi has filled this sustainably made canvas bag with three of her favorite lip gloss shades: Petal, Rose Sugar, and Aubergine. When you buy the FEED 10 pouch, you provide ten disadvantaged women with food and job training for a year through the United Nations World Food Program.
3. KIVA Gift Certificate $25+: A KIVA gift certificate allow the recipient to create a KIVA account, redeem the gift certificate and lend the funds from the certificate to the entrepreneur(s) of their choice. I couldn’t be a bigger supporter of KIVA and micro-lending in general
4. Okra Seeds $15: I’m not crazy. At Women for Women you can buy a gift to give on behalf of a loved one, that person will receive a card in the mail letting them know about the gift you’ve given. These Okra seeds will help a woman farmer in Sudan, The Congo or Afghanistan, allowing them to feed their families or bring the okra to market. You can also by Carpenter’s Tools Set - $25, Wheel barrow - $35, Teach a woman to read - $50, Sewing Machine - $75, Entrepreneur’s Starter Kit - $250 or a Beekeeper’s Suit - $100. All gifts give women throughout the world something they desperately need.
5. Charity Water Bracelet $24 - It may look small but the impact is huge. This bracelet gives clean water to one person for 20 years. No typo, for 20 YEARS. The bracelet is simply a reminder of the person your gift helps. There are two other low priced options available but if your feeling generous you can lay down 5g’s to build a well.
confession.
I spend way too much time reading the “casual encounters” section on WDC Craigslist. It’s amazing what people put on the internet.
I’ve decided to kick off my holiday season by watching Jesus Camp this afternoon. If I can get though it I’ll give a review.
