(Probably with many a shocked look on my face at … [Read more...]

When he was only two, my mom gifted him My First Encyclopedia. I found it a silly, unnecessary gift back then, what 2 year old needed an encyclopedia? In … [Read more...]

After inhaling my meal and part of hers, she was convinced that I was "with child". She was right...and I haven't stopped eating since. For someone who has always had a small … [Read more...]
