It’s snowing outside right now. Not the good kind of fluffy snow that falls quietly and looks like a wintry storybook scene. It’s the kind of snow that immediately turns into brown mush and causes my car to skid because winter is apparently a brand new thing that shocks everyone and the city forgets to salt […] Read more…

And these weren’t going to be decisions I made lightly. With one newer exception, these are […] Read more…

Friday Favorites – New online shopping obsession!
Guys. I have a new favorite online store. It started innocently enough, I was just watching Vanderpump Rules (this is a judgment-free zone, so zip it) and then Watch What Happens Live came on after. Since queen bee Stassi was on it, I kept watching. At some point during the episode, she casually mentioned that she […] Read more…

I have to say, I’m extremely excited that it’s Friday. Not only for the obvious reasons but now it’s much closer to Saturday which means I’m that much closer to my new washing machine. It broke at the beginning of the week and so we had to replace it. Didn’t get anything fancy but I’m ready […] Read more…
