More traffic, more reflections on my life
Traffic gives me a lot of time to think. Mostly about how horrible everyone else is as a driver. As I approached the interchange, traffic slowed.

One person’s don’ts is another’s dos: My response to style “don’t” videos

I found it while looking for “clean” products and decided to give the brand a try. Here is a quick review of a few of their products, from the perspective of my dry…

You might think Prada Candy is just another sweet fragrance
I remember, years ago, I tried Prada Candy at a Sephora, when I was first getting into fragrances. I was convinced this was the fragrance of my dreams. I wrote it down and committed myself to buying it in the future. I then proceeded to break that commitment. Now years later, I am trying it…
