The Super Bowl was already weeks ago (Remember? The Patriots won. Again.) but there’s something I’ve been thinking about ever since the big game...why would celebrities, like really rich and successful public figures, appear in advertisements or commercials about products which they weren’t enthusiastic about truly using? All of those actors and sports figures in … Continue reading 19 Things I’m loving

Randoms – February, 2019
I have absolutely zero feelings regarding whether the roll of toilet paper is supposed to be installed over or under.

I picked up a bottle of it last winter when I was coming home from Rome … Continue reading Current favorite cocktail – Fall Spritz!
