“Make your bed each morning. If every other part of your day goes wrong, at least at the end of it all you can take comfort in that one task fulfilled.”

“If you pee in the road you will get a sty in your eye.”
“If you’re sprinkling cheese overtop your cooked pasta dish, before you put the noodles on the plate – put a dusting of grated cheese on the plate before you add the pasta. Hidden cheese on the bottom of any pasta dish IS AMAZING.”
Mom Says
“It is bad luck to sleep on a table.”
“Try not to exfoliate your skin too often in the winter. It dries your skin out excessively during a time of year when you need to hold onto a lot of your skin’s natural moisture.”
“Don’t put a television set in your bedroom. You figure out why.”
Holiday Decorations Box
Other than teachers, I never knew who bought holiday decorations. Little did I know that it would be ADULT ME!
I'm currently in the process of obtaining the contents for my first year-round holiday box, since this is technically the first year I've lived without roommates (I don't consider Nathan a roommate since I love him) and once you no longer have roommates - you can decorate the hell out of your home with no concern for others.
Just incase this somehow isn't clear, a holiday box is a box full of holiday decorations for all the holidays of the year. AND WE ALL SHOULD HAVE ONE IN OUR HOMES! I don't think we need to go nuts with excessive decorations, but there are such simple things you can do to make your home look more festive and warm. And the Dollaramas these days have stuff that don't necessarily look like they came from Dollarama!
The decorations don't always have to be lame signs (like the one I have above). Subtly allude to the oncoming holiday with colours or accoutrements! Look at this Easter piece I just got for $2 that I intend to put in a vase in mid-March.
You're telling me that's not gorgeous? Get out of here.
Get on this, everyone!

“Beware of the one whose eyebrows meet. In their heart there lies deceit.”
“Eyebrow tip: If you tweeze them yourself, you should do so after you take a hot shower and it’ll hurt less when you tweeze.”
“Keep frozen, peeled bananas in your freezer (in tupperware). They make ridiculously good additions to late night smoothie recipes.”
