Body Shaming The Evil Queen (Fairest of All – Book Review

Let me start by saying that Fairest of All by Serena Valentino wasn’t at all what I expected. This retelling of Disney’s classic Snow White seriously took me by surprise in a good way. I had no idea what to expect when picking this up. In the movie, the Evil Queen is jealous of Snow…

Tonks’s New Crochet Dog Bed From Jumbo Yarn

For a while, I felt like all I was seeing online were people arm knitting or arm crocheting. Pillows seemed to be what was recommended for most first timers, but I don’t like to make things easy. Therefore, I decided to go straight to a dog bed. Although I’ve never crocheted before, I decided to…

My Father & My Cycle: A Father’s Day Story

In honor of Father’s Day, I wanted to tell you a story of how absolutely wonderful my father is. It’s a bit embarrassing and he may cringe if he ever sees this, but I think it shows his pure love for me, his daughter. I was a teenager. Maybe in 9th or 10th grade? Either…
