Who likes sparkly things? (Duh.) Since I’ve ticked off pregnant women everywhere about my thoughts on push-presents (I think they’re ridiculous), I’m now making things right: Buying YOURSELF a push presents and/or ME-gifts is totally okay.

The confession I’m scared to confess.
After a 2-week blogging hiatus and stay-cation with my family, I’ve come to a shocking conclusion that I never thought I’d be able to admit. EVER. DEEP BREATH. Stay-at-home mommyhood isn’t all that bad. It’s FUN. I’M HAVING FUN. Crap. Did I just say that out loud? I was the girl who always figured I’d have kids,…
Hell has frozen over: I’m defending Snooki.
In a shocking and unexpected turn of events this week, Snooki has indicated that she may very well be keeping her boobies to herself in regards to nursing her soon-to-be bambino.
