It Must be the Recession
“Ay, come on down to The Fashion District, homies. There’s a crazy sale going on! I’m about to get mad stuff for my momz and my girl.”
This is What Happens When You Try to Give A Bride Advice
On the phone with my sister, while looking at her bridal registry. Me: Oh my God. Do NOT get that Brita water filter. Uzma: Why? Me: Because we have it, and we hate it. Uzma: What’s wrong with it? Me: It has this really weird spout that pours down instead of out like in an [...]
Mimmi: 1920-2009
