And Now I Know Why I Have No Green Panties by @sarahinmi

In college, I had this endearing habit of matching my bra and panties to the shirt I was wearing at the time (Shush, it’s my post, I can call it endearing if I want to – even if it was, in retrospect, clearly a little heavy on the crazy and more than a wee bit high maintenance). Also, it’s an easy habit to have when you wear a lot of black. In my closet NOW about 40% of the shirts hanging (arranged...

Review: The Super Sexy Mom on a Budget

No, it really doesn’t take more than a little shameless flattery and a free review copy to open a book. Am I super? Eh, usually. Sexy? Well, I kind of have it going on today. Sure, I’ll read it. I’m not going to burn anyone at the stake for ending a sentence with a preposition, however, there are certain things in books that I cannot tolerate: * not knowing the difference between...
