About a week ago, my husband went with me to purchase my Keurig B70 Platinum Single-Serve Coffee Brewer. It’s my Christmas present, but I wanted it before my family came over for a Christmas party at our house. You know – so I could show off. We purchased it at Bed, Bath & Beyond since we had a 20% off coupon that saved us $40. Once home with my prize, my husband unpacked it for me. I had him do this in case I hated it and wanted to return it.…
Running errands the other day, I stopped by to pick up my dry cleaning. As I’m paying I notice a jumpsuit hanging alone in the back of the store. Perhaps it was being prepared for the process or maybe it was just finished and not bagged yet. Who knows?

Allyson pulled the toys, scooters, hula hoops and other assorted items away from the wall so I could sweep out the winter doldrums. Once the floor was free of debris, I began putting things back…

The books are based on a private invesitgator named Kinsey Millhone. Each book is titled for a letter of the alphabet – A is for Alibi, B is for Burglar, and so on. So, Mom calls me in mid November to tell me the new book is out – S is for Silence. I did some research and discovered it would not be out until December 6th, but I looked online for a large print edition to pre-order. My mother can no longer read the regular prints. I couldn’t find…
