Self-respect and bake-off update.

In honor of my Health Psychology midterm exam tomorrow, I present you with a definition that will hopefully invoke some self-reflection:

Self-respect is "the feeling that one is a worthwhile human being in spite of one’s faults and imperfections" (Rudolf Dreikurs). Dreikurs also said that it requires courage to be imperfect.

Vegan bake-off update:

The winning entry at the totally fabulous vegan bake-off 2010 was the "double vanilla, salted caramel cupcake" entry. I actually got to try this one when I was volunteering. It was definitely interesting (it was salty AND sweet), but it wasn't my favorite (probably because I'm not really a cupcake fan). Read more here.
