Walking Social Billboards & I Love Ice Cubesssss
Latest Protest Tees
Sometimes I just want to wear my thoughts like a mini billboard, and that’s exactly what Bitter Threads is — a way of putting thoughts about out there for the world to engage with. Here are my 3 new social tees on things that are rolling around in my head this week.
- TAX THE RICH: Let’s be real—99% of us know what’s up with the wealth gap. This hoodie (and tee) is for all of us who believe it's time for the top 1% to pay their fair share. If 15-30% of our wealth is going to taxes, so should theirs.
- Respect Your Mother: Respect Mother Nature. She don't play.With Hurricane Helene recently slamming North Carolina, and Milton following right behind, it’s clear: Mother Nature has had enough.
- We Are Not Your Enemy: Featuring a man holding a Palestine flag, this shirt challenges the harmful narrative that supporting the Palestinian people equals endorsing terrorism. Human rights shouldn’t be political, and this design speaks to that truth.
I Love Ice Cube Trays!
If you’re like me and constantly reaching for garlic and ginger while cooking, here’s a time-saving trick that will change your life. Mince your garlic (or if you are lazy, buy a giant bottle of minced garlic) and ginger (pulverize it in your Vitamix), spoon them into ice cube trays, and freeze. Once frozen, pop the cubes into a bag, and you’ve got perfectly portioned garlic and ginger ready to toss into any dish—no chopping required!
Bonus Hack: I also love freezing a mix of thyme, sage, and rosemary. Just chop them up, add a little olive oil, and freeze in cubes. They’re a lifesaver when you want to infuse rich flavor into soups, roasted veggies, or pasta sauces in a pinch!
Summer Tip: For a fun twist, try freezing borage flowers or herbs in water for super pretty ice cubes. These are great for adding a little flair to your summer drinks or fancy water pitchers. So simple, so beautiful!
