The first woman who...

Today is a very special day. A true landmark.

It happens to be the day that the first woman ate bread in a restaurant.

Imagine the courage of this selfless female. She would be the first -- a leader of millions who, despite the scars and wounds of her genderhood, would valiantly lift a slice of freshly baked baguette to her mouth. Chew it and swallow it (without the help of a man). Remarkable! Her name was Annabelle Constance Mumford Pennybaker Labell.

People in this digital-post-nuclear age often forget the courageous sisterhood who blazed a multitude of pathways so that others could sup in luxury.

Now, as we sit down to dine in various restaurants, we find that certain establishments are actually charging $3 for a basket of bread (and butter). We know what this is about... We’re on to you Mister! It’s a deliberate attempt to diminish – yes tarnish – the good deeds of Annabelle’s valor. An attempt to puncture her determination to lift the image of women who eat bread in restaurants everywhere!

We will not stand for this dreadful undermining of women’s rights. If you think you can sabotage this movement, you’ve got some crust.
