Body Dysmorphic Disorder & Kolaches - an Unlikely Duo
**Monday is the New Upload Day**
This week we're talking about Body Dysmorphic Disorder, how it is NOT Gender Dysphoria, and giving out a LOVELY recipe for GF/Vegan Kolaches. Oh yeah - we also deep dive into lobbing off breasts, how some people hate their toes, and what might cause a Gaelic-esque nose to appear like a beak.

Old School No Bakes & New-Age PTSD
TW: War depictions
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychiatric disorder that can occur in people who have experienced or witnessed a traumatic event such as a natural disaster, a serious accident, a terrorist act, war/combat, rape or other violent personal assault. PTSD can occur in all people, in people of any ethnicity, nationality or culture, and any age. PTSD affects approximately 3.5 percent of U.S. adults, and an estimated one in 11 people will be diagnosed PTSD in their lifetime. Women are twice as likely as men to have PTSD.

Magical Quiche & A Field Guide to Eating Disorders (Rants Included)
This week we're discussing something that I think we can all say we’ve been touched by at some point in our lives: eating disorders. In this episode I’m going to give a brief overview of the main types, how they affect those with the disorder(s), and what they entail. It’ll be a bit more in-depth than usual because in the NEXT episode we’re having a Q&A with Nealie – an amazing woman who’s in recovery from an E.D.

Rising Anxiety & Breaking Bread
This week's episode is the literal EASIEST bread ever. (And it's vegan!)
Recipe:
- 3 ½ cups flour
- 1 ¾ cups water
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 ¼ teaspoons yeast
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- In a large bowl combine your flour and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine your water and sugar (ensuring your water is a little warmer than room temp) add your yeast and whisk together with a fork.
- Now, this where things get fun. I’m making this bread specifically for French toast so I’m adding nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon, clove, cardamom, and a little lemon zest. If you wanted to add some herbs, spices, or dried nuts and fruits, this is the perfect recipe for it. Just add it in with your flour at this point. This recipe is VERY forgiving so you can eyeball most things.
- Once you see the yeast is active (bubbles are forming, it’s beginning to grow in size), add it to the flour, OIL YOUR HANDS, and mix until combined.
- Then cover loosely with plastic wrap, and set it aside somewhere warm in the kitchen and out of the way for the next 12-24 hours.
- *the next day* Spread a little bit of flour onto a work surface and turn your dough onto it.
- Before you begin to shape it, grab your bowl, a kitchen towel, and some flour. Put the towel in the bowl, leaving a space for the bread to rest after you’ve shaped it. LIBERALLY flour that towel and ensure it’s on the sides too.
- Shape it into a rough ball and place into the bowl with the towel. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let it rise for another 2 hours.
- About thirty minutes before it’s done, preheat the oven to 450F and place your pot with the lid inside to pre heat too. Once thirty minutes has passed, take the pot and lid out of the oven, take the lid off the pot and grab your dough bowl. Take off the plastic wrap, and carefully drop the dough into the pot. Shake the pan once or twice if the dough looks uneven, but it’ll straighten out as it bakes. Cover with the lid and place into the oven for 30 minutes.
- Remove the lid, and then bake for another 15-30 until it’s beautifully brown and golden.
- Place onto a rack to cool for another hour or two before devouring.
(A note: you don’t want to cut hot bread because it can cause it to deflate and to lose all the air that the resting allowed for)

Chocolate Chips, Brown Sugar, & Depression: A Recipe for Your Twenties
In this episode I'm breaking down the basics of a chocolate chip cookie - how to jazz it up or dress it down. I also discuss depression, mental health, and what the notion of a "mental health crisis" means to me.
___________________________________
Recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookies:
4.5 cups of flour
1.5 cups of sugar
1.5 cups of dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 heaping teaspoon espresso powder
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 eggs (room temperature)
4.5 sticks of butter, unsalted (room temperature)
4oz regular sized chocolate chips (semi-sweet)
24oz mini chocolate chips (semi-sweet)
___________________________________
Pre-heat oven to 350.
Combine all dry ingredients (Except chips) and extracts.
Add in butter and mix with your hands until combined and "Crumbly" (like sand, panko, or dirt) in appearance.
Add in egg and chocolate chips at the same time, and combine until a dough is formed.
Chill for 15 min or overnight, then scoop into 1.5 tablespoon balls (with a scoop or a large spoon) and roll until smooth. You can store these in the fridge for up to 2 weeks, or freeze for up to 4 months.
Bake on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (or a baking sheet sprayed with pam or non-stick spray) at 350 for 7-10 minutes. You want the edges to be golden while the middle is a shade or two paler in comparison. If you prefer a crispier cookie, flatten out the dough balls into rounds before baking. If you want a cracky appearance, add in a teaspoon of cream of tartar to your dry ingredients.
Yields 6-8 dozen. Scales down nicely!
