      Get cool in Blaine this summer.

Revenge served red hot

The only way you’ve missed seeing this show is if you’ve been living under a rock. It’s, in my opinion, the best new show on television. It has mystery, drama, scandal and sex – all of which make a very interesting and exciting viewing experience. The show is set around Emily Thorne, a wealthy 20-something [Read On]

With 10 days until Christmas, I bet you’re starting to panic because not one present has been purchased, wrapped and placed under your tree. That is, of course, you’ve gotten around to putting up said tree. And, if you’re Jewish, you only have five days until Hanukkah (which to you non-Jewish folk is Dec. 20-28 [Read On]

Are you like me? Do you pin stuff to your boards on Pinterest with every intent on completing that DIY project, only to get distracted with life? The pin just sits there, mocking you. It pops back up every now and then and you either re-pin it or remind yourself to get to it soon. [Read On]

What has happened to music lately?  Everything either sounds the same or is a remake that sounds terrible.  Flo-Rida and Ke$ha anyone?  This morning I heard Lady Gaga’s You and I and couldn’t believe what I was hearing.  I was absolutely certain that KDWB was playing Shania Twain circa the late 90s.  Even my country-music-loathing [Read On]
