I’m working from home today because I woke up to water on my bedroom floor after a long rainy night. Ah well, that’s how it goes sometimes. Since I didn’t prepare anything last night for lunch today, I had to cook. Though I love cooking, I had no idea what … Continue reading
Black Friday shopping is one of the highlights of my year. All year long I look at things I want and decide that I don’t NEED them immediately. These items are added to my Black Friday shopping list – ONLY if they are at a great price. Last year I got … Continue reading
