For my birthday a few weeks ago, I didn’t really plan a big and grand celebration. I wanted to save money and I just had one simple wish: to eat sushi! Lots of sushi! Well, I got my sushi, all right… but I got so much more than that. I got to feast on all …
My aunt asked me a few days before my birthday, “How old will you be this year?” Without flinching, I proudly said “Thirty three!” My cousin-in-law laughed and said, “You’re too honest! You should have said twenty seven!” (I could have said 8.25, actually. The advantages of being a leap year baby!) I was getting …
What could be wilder, steamier, naughtier, raunchier, and darker than Fifty Shades of Grey? How about Fifty Shades Darker?

Most people finish writing their New Year’s Resolutions even BEFORE the New Year arrives, but me? I’m a little behind on that. But what I DID figure out early on was my ONE WORD. Sometimes, resolutions fail because there are just too many of them. We write a long list of “promises” to ourselves, only …
Oh, 2016!!! If I could hug you and kiss you, I would! You were a b*tch to many but you were good to me. It wasn’t exactly flawless but I will go so far as to say that this has been one of my best years yet. Grateful is an understatement. It is now 2017, but …
Who knew that a tiny, furry creature could change our lives? It’s been a year since Mike and I got our guinea pig, Booboo-8 Smith (“Booboo” or “BB-8” for short), just a month after our wedding, and since then, our home has been filled with lots of laughter and love because of this little guy.
