In case you missed the ACM awards…

No need to worry if you missed the ACMs. We know you have a busy life and things to do. It just so happens that we compiled a list of the main things you need to know: Nobody dominated at last night’s “52nd Annual ACM Awards”, but there were some pretty big moments.  MIRANDA LAMBERT won…MORE

Heels for Babies??? Nope!

Heels for Babies??? Nope!

A new footwear company has a new and totally bizarre product:  High heeled shoes for babies! Pee Wee Pumps, which makes soft shoes for infants, describes its products as “cool” and “diva defining”. But pictures of the fashion range posted online have led to criticism on social media sites. The shoes, which have collapsible heels…MORE

New Favorite Thing!!! Kalsarikannit (pronounced cal-sar-y-cuhn-eet)

Finland is next on our list to visit.  The country’s tourism board just introduced us to a word aptly describing life in 2017: Kalsarikannit (pronounced cal-sar-y-cuhn-eet), defined as “the feeling when you are going to get drunk home alone in your underwear with no intention of going out.” Rejoice, homebodies and misanthropes, for this is your new guideline to living…MORE

It’s beginning to look a lot like…February!

Snowmaggedon

Well, this winter’s been something, huh?  Whether you call it “Snowmaggedon” or “Snowpocalypse,” it’s been overwhelming for EVERYONE!  Even my snow-loving friends are ready for spring.  Hopefully we can all use this as a learning experience.  Here’s what I’ve learned:  ALWAYS shovel the street in front of your house…not just the driveway and sidewalk!  You…MORE

Another Snow Day? Ugh!

Another Snow Day? Ugh!

No offense to the super mom out there that just can’t get enough of hanging out with her kids for hours on end but…You are NOT NORMAL! The rest of us are seriously stressed out by trying to entertain our little ones while staving off the desire to open a bottle of wine at 11am.…MORE

Dashing through the snow…

“These idiots have no idea how to drive on snow!  Get out of my way!”  I wonder how many drivers scream those words…right before sliding off the road.  My sister-in-law’s family drove the snowy road from Nevada for Christmas.  They said a guy flew past them, only to end up in a ditch further up…MORE

Face-palm.

(BSM-Before Social Media) I like Pepsi. You like Coke. Yup. That’s cool. (ASM-After Social Media) I like Pepsi. You like Coke. Yup. Why don’t you like Pepsi? It’s not Coke. Why don’t you like Coke?
