on why i became a feminist

I remember coming home from a conference on cross-gender friendship a couple years ago, and calling one of my best friends from college.  “How’d it go?” she asked. “It was awesome.  I learned a lot…  oh, and I think I’m an egalitarian feminist.” She started laughing. “No, really.  I think I’ve been one for awhile, actually….

in which we (finally!) review Jesus Feminist

Jesus Feminist.  It took me months to get through this book – not because it was a difficult read, but because it was a great one.  I would read up to a point, and then I’d have to set it down and just think about it for awhile.  And then life would happen.  And then I’d pick…

Interrupted: for life

If there is only one book you read this fall, it needs to be Interrupted, by Jen Hatmaker.  I’m not kidding. If you’re a follower of Jesus, it’s a MUST-READ.  (And I Say That With Capital Letters.  Because I Really Mean It.) And if you aren’t a follower of Jesus – then I would humbly ask…

Meet Happy
Simple Felicity is, at its heart, a blog based on the unshakeable belief that happiness really isn't all that complicated. It's often found in the simplest of things: good food, good books, and good company. So those are the things I write about, along with a few other things that really matter to me, including faith and feminism. A bit about me: My name is Happy. I have an amazing talent for misplacing my keys, a deep appreciation for whomever looked at the coffee bean and thought, "Hey, I wonder what would happen if I roasted this?", and road trips to Michigan are pretty much my favorite.
