A Mother’s Monologue

The other day, I met my mother wearing some pearls and she mentioned how good I looked in pearls. Now, I love pearls! They are so classy and really spring an outfit to a height of elegance, don’t you think? Lately, I’ve also been mixing and matching my pearls…..different colours, different lengths, different sizes……fun!

Why do I do it? I have my reasons. But really, I reiterate that readers should read with discretion. Take what you enjoy and leave what you don’t. This is my blog and I can do whatever I want with it, and that includes shutting it down. Obviously, the fact that I have readers who [...]

Living without a maid and two kids of which one is a baby, is a real challenge. There is no time to do anything when baby is awake as you’re either feeding, cleaning or putting them to sleep. And that alone takes up the entire day if you need to cook as well. Yet, there [...]
