I ate all the leftover Milky Ways. All of them.
Here we go again? How many innings this time?
I swore not to buy another plant, but I'd never seen this color before, soooo... No one really *uses* a desk, right?
A cloudy, drizzly, chill day calls for muffins with lemon sugar.
They don't need a ballroom. They need a padded room.

A dog coat rake or comb is best for those. (Collie owner who lives in a burr patch) ๐Ÿ˜‚
It's just such an elegant look! Like, this was no effort at all ๐Ÿ˜‚

Karen is a dogged, versatile journalist who will kill it no matter what, and your publication would be lucky to have her.
I was recently laid off by ARTnews, a few days before the theft at the Louvre. The terms of my TN work visa means I can't freelance unless I donate the funds to charity. I'm open to new FT roles in business reporting and communications, and am willing to relocate to other cities, including Toronto.
