All opinions are mine alone. #VivaLaMorena #CollectiveBias I tend to overdo things when I bring dishes for parties (see layered jello shots), so this time I tried to come up with something that was classic football party far. And I overdid it, but in the best of … [Read more...]
The Airing of Grievances, 2015 Edition
After a hiatus of a couple years, IT'S BACK. Yep.

Co-Parenting Like a Boss: 5 Ways to Make it Work
My son's father and I were never married.

The ULTA Edit: Makeup on a Budget

It's my adult-me-thing and I like playing with it in the same way that my 4-year-old likes playing with finger paints. It's almost meditative, really - I get to know my face, enjoy my features, draw out the ones I love … [Read more...]
Why I Call Myself a Feminist
Sometimes when I wake up at odd hours of the morning, I find myself stumbling through comment threads on Facebook and Reddit. It never takes long to find a comment disparaging feminism and feminists.
