I’m Always Cold!

I tend to fluctuate between hot and cold all day, all year. If you’re like me, forget this post and try this one instead. If you’re someone who’s always freezing no matter the season and just longs for hot summer days, read on for tips to stay cozy year-round.

How To Avoid Ironing Like a Champ

Growing up, every time my Nana came to visit, she would spend what seemed like hours ironing the giant heap of clothes our family had in a bin. I guess ironing all the clothes we didn’t get around to made her feel useful. She said she liked it, but maybe she was lying.
