  • Please Don’t Lick The Minivan! By Leanne Shirtliffe

    This year I made a promise to myself I would read more, not as a chore but as a way of reclaiming my identity. Reading has always topped my list of things I do solely for myself; it makes me a better conversationalist, improves my vocabulary (especially with naughty words and concepts I learn from mommy bloggers and satirists), and a nicer person (downtime always makes for a nicer person).

    Here are my personal Top 5 times you should send Flowers. #1. The Fight. Yup, you made her cry. Send flowers. The flowers should be bright. Cheerful and the card better have some groveling. I highly recommend adding “I was wrong” If the fight was really bad, consider adding a box of chocolates with the arrangement. #2. Wrong Name. Oh man you really did it this time!!

The card should be her name over and over and over and over.…
