Grappling with complex, heavy topics such as metaethics on an individual level is difficult enough. Every single one of us has a different set of morals that we express in our own ways.

It was late August, the weather just starting to feel like fall outside. The day was beautiful and sunny outside, it was impossible not to be happy.

significant pay gap between women and men, plus the lack of support from the Social Security. The government cannot expect to not sufficiently fund Social Security, raise the taxes, and deny the woman’s right to abortion. To add the cherry on the top of the sundae of government flaws, “women won’t see equal pay until 2058” (Paquette). How might a penniless woman be able to feed one more mouth with these absurd incomes and…

It was a beautiful day with an amazing location Niagara Falls, Canada. We were by the water falls and we walked a long way to get to the boat tour. And I was super scared because I do not like anything that floats on water. I was trying to recede from the boats. And there was a super long line and in my head I was saying thank you. But my dad finds another line by so much shorter so we got to the other line. And we had to go down a lot of steps and we get on the boat eventually I definitely had…

Cheddars Just another Average Restaurant Ever since I moved to Waco one of the things that I noticed was it has an abundance of restaurants. Cheddars is a rather famous restaurant it has been around since 1979, and has over 130 restaurants’ in 23 states (“Cheddar's Casual Café).

Birdsalls Ice Cream Co. opened in April, 1931 on N. Federal Avenue, according…

CRACKER BARREL NEAR ME. The restaurant industry has grown so fast over the years helping families enjoy time out together for dinner and giving the woman some time off from the kitchen and break the monotony of eating your own food. It is always great to indulge in foods that have completely different recipes from what you are used to. Cracker Barrel is one of the most popular restaurants that can never fail or make you regret your choice to take you family or loved ones out for breakfast,…

Arthur saved room for the main courses which was roast duck, cheese fondue, baked acorn squash, salads galore, and a vegan eggplant parmesan. By the time Tristan and Annis brought out desserts of pies, cookies, fudge, ice cream, and fixings for a sundae bar, Arthur could barely move, he was so stuffed, and he was paying for it today.…

From the moment you wake up to the moment you go to bed, your life is filled with colors. Everywhere you look there is an object that contains some form of color. Whether it is your clothes, the walls in your kitchen, the food that you eat, etc., it all consists of color.
