just our day to day life
My first reaction when I got my June Birchbox was “wow – this mailing box is pretty crushed on one end”! Unfortunately, so was the inner Birchbox. The shampoo sample had split at the bottom and shampoo got on everything. I had to throw out the …
I love baked beans – a lot. I don’t like many canned baked beans, but I used to love these: yes, baked beans with chicken. I used to eat half a can and call it dinner. Kind of gross, huh? I’m not sure that they …
