Tidbits

  • Sleepover at Ikea - Maybe this is the only way to get to the $1 early enough…

My brother’s house was throwing a party, and my mom wanted to know which of his roommates is Irish. Poor mom, she didn’t know that St. Patrick’s Day really have nothing to do with Ireland anymore. No, it’s basically a day to celebrate beer. By drinking lots of it.…

Happy <3 Day!
