So this last week’s challenge was all about organizing my recipes, and although I knew I needed to go through all mine, I didn’t realize how out of control it had gotten. I mean, by the end of it, I had gotten rid of over TWENTY-FIVE cookbooks and cooking magazines. That’s just crazy. And as …
*Maybe it’s the gloomy weather, but I seriously have been wearing all-black or all-grey outfits almost every other day for the past few weeks. Sometimes I don’t think it’s so bad (like the number above), but on the day when I wore grey skinnies, a grey shirt, and grey boots, I’m sure I looked like some …
