Thursday (+1) Throwdown: Merry Marymas!
Come, friends, join my birthday celebration with this extra throwdown. Why *you* buggin?
Waffle Wars
Sometimes, love is measured with a cranky waffle iron.
Thursday Throwdown: RBG
RBG described herself as a Belligerent Optimist. I can’t think of a better description I want to be, when I grow up. This week, RBG inspires the playlist.
