Equity does not exist in households where women make more!

Mom with kids on vacation "Female breadwinners face a much higher risk for burnout, infidelity, and divorce."  When She Makes More ,  Farnoosh Torabi Prince is one of my favorite artists. And, I think that it is genius that the beginning of his famous song, "Let's go crazy" mimics a marriage ceremony. It makes you wonder whether he was suggesting that marriage itself was a path to insanity. If you have forgotten the beginning, here you go, "Dearly beloved, We are gathered here today, To get through this thing called "life" Electric word, life, It means forever and that's a mighty long time, But I'm here to tell you  There's something else..." He writes the afterworld in the blank. However, a recent study suggests that "marriage" could be inserted in its place, especially marriage for high earning women. 

Friday Tip: Another Free Event in Pittsburgh (Three Rivers Arts Festival)



The Three Rivers Arts Festival has been going on for some time and this is the last weekend. According to a sign I saw, it's the largest free festival of its kind in the nation. Gotta love it when Pittsburgh comes in first for something other than football and eating more French Fries on salads than anyone else!

I usually enjoy the festival, but I have been forgetting to attend this year. This evening though, the toddler and I attended the festival as part of our nightly walk. Indeed, downtown was hopping tonight. There was the festival, the Pittsburgh Pirates were playing, and there were musicians playing on the sidewalk. We loved all of the excitement, especially the toddler who was smiling and dancing in her stroller. 

We had dinner at the festival too, an egg roll and chicken on a stick.  Yes, even though I have been committed to giving my toddler fresh, organic, food today we ate street meat. It was oh so good.  Don't judge me!

Besides, it's been reported that the health inspectors checked the food at the festival and we said grace so I am sure that we'll be fine!
