Clean socks are a privilege, not a right
Christmas came a bit early for me. To say that I am a bit of a coffee junkie is an understatement. My family all know to not talk to me unless caffeine has been first consumed. However I am the only coffee drinker in the family so finding a coffee maker that works for us […]
Right now I wish I was sitting the in 2014 GMC Terrain’s lovely heated seats. I think the car would be warmer than my house! We test drove the SLT-2 model of the compact crossover that doesn’t feel compact at all. For a 5-seater it is very roomy, even with a car seat and we […]
