Fast? Food? Feminist? Who . . . Me?: Hello Kitty in My Life

What Is a Fast Food Feminist?

Once upon a time in a faraway place the words "Fast Food Feminist" were tossed in my face by a man defending his right to be served Slow Food on a daily basis by His Woman. (This Right was only a hypotheses, as apparently there was no His Woman in his life, and I wasn't even talking to him when I said that I thought fast food was okay at times . . . but whatever.)

So I took the name and held it, thinking of a quote by Nicholas Boileau: "Sometimes a fool makes a good suggestion."

Q. Do fast food feminists like to eat fast food?
A. I do, sometimes. More than that I like to know how to make good food fast (as I don't want to spend all my time in the kitchen).

Q. How can someone who was an executive chef and successful businessperson then become a stay at home mom, turning finally into one of those people who eat fast food and actually like it, be called a feminist?
A. I always believe six impossible things before breakfast.

Hello Kitty in My Life

Sung to the tune of "Let it Be" by the Beatles

When I find myself in times of trouble
Hello Kitty comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom
"Be like me"

And in the hour of darkness
There is still a light that shines on me
There will be an answer
Hello Kittyyyyyyyyy

Hello Kitty Hello Kitty
I'm glad you talk to me
Bringing words of wisdom
"Be like me"
