Nicole’s Dessert

“I’m completely neurotic about maintaining a (for me) artificially low weight (which, again, is an active detriment to my feminism), but I will not go to Eleven Madison Park and ask if they can steam some fish for me. I’m going to eat the foie-gras-chocolate torte. And it’s going to be delicious. As an atheist, I feel very strongly about the iniquity of attaching shame to our food desires and our sexual appetites. There are only two things that we actually KNOW we’re on this planet to do: eat and fuck. Go forth and be glad.”
