Child soldiers exist, war is not an adult topic.

Children die, death/murder is not an adult topic.

The Troubled Teen Industry exists, child trafficking is not an adult topic.

Children get raped, sexual assault is not an adult topic.

Children have alcoholic parents, addiction is not an adult topic.

Children get beat to the point of hospitalization at school, that level of violence is not an adult topic.

That when these things get into "kid friendly" media at all, they tend to be heavily censored is about protecting adult control over kids, not about protecting children.

[pinetreesreblogs]

Also kids can be addicts too, addiction is not an adult topic.

ok so

everyone knows about this meme, right?

but does anyone else know the woman who made the food? no? time to educate!

This is “Mother Mary”, the owner of Blackberry’s mother.

She made all the cakes for the restaurant while it was open. Chef Gordon Ramsay tried her red velvet cake, and spoke this meme-able line:

He then called Mary over, complimented her food, and gave her a peck on the cheek.

Look how happy she was to hear that!!!

anyways, I hope she has been able to continue her love for baking since the restaurant closed down.

[tasmanianstripes]

For these who don’t know: The restaurant she worked at closed down but she left before that and opened her own bakery, that’s apparently very successful!

She has a youtube channel where she shares recipes and cooking advice!

“Mino [Mino, Japan] Lantern Festival is a weekend affair that shuts down several streets in a rustic timeless area of the town. There are several hundred entries that use paper to construct lanterns. Mino is famous in Japan for the beautiful paper products or washi.  The dark streets are lined with one lantern more elaborate then the next. The paper is twisted and folded in ways you couldn’t imagine. This globe shown is rather simple (if making several dozen paper cranes is simple), but it shows the depth of time that some makers have dedicated to their lanterns. I was told that some lanterns take upwards of a year to complete.”  Text and photography by Brendon Hicks
