Hello Darlings,

It's hard to believe that we're already in mid-August! With so much happening, these summer months have flown by this year.

Resisting Temptation

Hello Darlings,

Online shopping is one of my favorite things to do, and is evolving into quite an addictive challenge. Obviously online retailers are not stupid, and seemingly are amping up the stakes creating more and more high-pressure scenarios with time limits with so-called "special sales".

As the saying goes "don't cry over spilt milk", but if ever there was a good case for a little self pity Robert Pattinson was deserving. He literally had a cow tipped over on him considering he's one of the world's top A-list celebrities, and almost every magazine, newspaper, and entertainment tv show reports daily on how he was cheated on.
