I'm a 40-year-old soccer mom to two little girls desperately seeking sanity and hiding from the Barbie Pop-Tarts. I work as an editor and social media coordinator in business publishing.

Clean Clothes And Innuendos
Fridays are my laundry catch up days and I realized as soon as I started on the second load that we were out of detergent. Then I remembered I had some laundry soap nuts in my swag bag from last weekend’s BlissDom conference. So I got them out, read the instructions, and tossed them into [...]
