AAANNNDD the Mindy Project is Back!!!!!

Mindy is back and I couldn't be happier! In February they left us on a cliffhanger where Danny and Mindy kiss and I cannot wait to see where it goes because they are so cute and who doesn't love Danny Castellano?! Anyway I am stoked but have to wait until tomorrow night even though it has already aired...stupid hulu. But in case you don't watch it, and I don't know why you wouldn't, here is the kiss because it was a good kiss! (Is that weird to say?...)
AHHH! Love it! I'm way too invested in these characters...and here is one for fun of their witty banter and love/hate relationship. It's not their best moments but still pretty funny:

Jessica Simpson, good point!

So I am not a huge Jessica Simpson fan and I'm not into the whole weight watchers or dieting thing but I saw one of her weight watchers ads and I loved the message. This is the one:
I love how she describe her body, that it created her kids and how she loves it for what it can do(so skip the last part about losing weight). I think that is such a great message that I forget sometimes. I get so caught up in needing to look perfect and skinny and all those things we discussed when talking about body image and media. But sometimes I forget that my body is an amazing gift from God. Our bodies are capable of so much and I find myself taking it for granted at times. I mean just take an anatomy class and it will blow your mind what your body can do! I think this is such a great reminder to really appreciate our bodies and take care of them. I don't want to forget what a blessing my body is. I want to treat it well so it can take me wherever I need and want to go in life. I just love seeing such a positive message for women about their bodies in the media. I want to be healthy for me so my body can do it's job and I am happy, not so I can look beautiful by someone else's standards. I love that this message is becoming more popular in society, especially the Dove campaign for Real Beauty! Seriously though you should check that one out too, powerful messages in there.
