In The Mood For Merlot
New Orleans is a city of seafood and spirits. The French Quarter is a famed destination for fun and food. It's also where a southern sweetheart named GiGi worked as a hostess in a new, upscale hotel restaurant called Angel Food Grill. She loved greeting and serving guests from all over the world as they came from near and far for a taste of New Orleans flavor. The restaurant served many unique dishes like red beans and rice, etouffee, and the world famous dish called gumbo. In celebration of Mardi Gras, Angel Food Grill decided to put a deal on a new discount website called PayLess. GiGi decided that it would be a great way to show the new guy in town, Rance, around The Big Easy. Rance, a jazz singer, just moved to New Orleans from New York and had been so busy adjusting that he had not taken time to sight see.

It's Ok To Be A Victim: an excerpt
So often we are told to "stop playing victim" and "to get over it already, " oh and my personal favorite, "you ain't the first you won't be the last." These ideals can form mental barriers to vulnerability and this proved more than true for me. It have had to take time to accept that I have been raped one more than one occassion. One can't call themselves a survivor if they are still just surviving. It's become a norm in various cultures to just bury hurt and sorrow beneath layers of concrete defense mechanisms only for it to one day break through to the surface peaking out of its festering darkness into nourishing sunlight.
