Are you guys sick of me yet? I think you now know more about me than the NSA…. 41. I can bake three things really well: Orange Cranberry Loaf, Banana Nut Bread, and Dried Fruit Bread 42. Seinfeld taught me one thing: if you look really frustrated people will think […]
The struggle is real, y’all. For the last year or so I’ve been obsessed with searching for a mustard cardi. I’ve been pinning outfits with mustard cardis, combing through online shops, driving all across the State {OK, maybe I haven’t gone quite that far but close enough}, and, finally, I […]
