It’s Not Mother’s Day ‘Til Someone Says, “I Hate You, Mom!”

Monday, May 13, 2013 by Lolli 7 Comments

I don’t have many (high) expectations for Mother’s Day. As long as I can get a nap (the height of luxury) and, if possible, avoid cooking all day, then I can end the day relatively satisfied. Why is it, then, that I come to the end of most Mother’s Days feeling like a horrible, unappreciated…

Strawberries were on sale the other day (huge, dark red, beautiful strawberries) and I swear they were calling to me.

And he knew just what to…

The Great Gatsby Movie Review

Wednesday, May 8, 2013 by Lolli 4 Comments

The Great Gatsby 2013 movie review

Note: I attended a screening of The Great Gatsby as press but received no compensation for writing this post.
