Carrie was a nutjob not to end up with Aidan. Sure, her and Big make more sense, but Aidan was just so perfect. Who would reject him? Crazy lady. Anywho, thankfully he’s decided to come back to TV on United States of Tara as the husband of a woman struggling with dissociative identity disorder. And for nearly 50, he is flippin’ hot, is he not? And the man is a staggering 6’5. With all these good looks, I have no idea why I couldn’t find more pictures of him online! It was a struggle to just find these that I included under the jump. Do I need to introduce the world to this man’s hotness? It’s all your fault, Bradshaw.

If you are a fan of Etsy to the extent that I am, you are really going to hate me for introducing you to Heartsy. And I’m really sorry for what I’m about to do, but you know what they say: misery loves company. And my wallet is definitely miserable, but my heart is happy with all these amazing deals! Heartsy is a Groupon-type site that posts deals for certain Etsy stores.
I fell for the Ardent Sparrow deal a couple of weeks ago, and am so happy I had that weak moment. They specialize in beautifully made romantic jewelry such as earrings, necklaces, rings and bobby pins. It was so hard to choose only a couple of items – in fact, I’m pretty sure I scrolled through their entire inventory 3 times before making a decision. But I did, and it was a pair of these gorgeous leaf earrings and a white gold plated love necklace.

And the best part is, I still have a wee bit of credit so that means one more glorious piece of jewelry in my future! I hope this discovery does not ruin any of your bank accounts, and I am readily anticipating lovingly insulting comments down below 😉

Scallops have once again melted my heart. This clutch is just all sorts of wonderful. Between the color, the fabric and the little gold tassle, my heart has hit girly overload. I must have it. Unfortunately, it is $100. Oh Top Shop, you vile wench. I shall have my way with you in November!


I’ll never forget my first grade teacher, Ms. Wahl. She tutored me during the summer going into 2nd grade because I just could not read. I don’t know what it was about the process, but it did not sit well with me. I didn’t get it. At all. But she helped me. She helped me so much I became an avid reader shortly after. So avid that my mom didn’t know what to do with me and my voracious appetite to go through book after book after book. And that’s when my love affair began with reading.
