Why I Don’t Buy Pink Ribbon Products . . . Anymore

Karin Kallmaker 10/09/2015 LIFE + STYLE 5 Comments

After an encounter with a box of cereal, I am trying to be blind to all those ribbons and banners on ordinary things I buy.

Go Set a Watchman – It’s Not About Atticus

Karin Kallmaker 07/17/2015 Sisters of the Pen 3 Comments

If nothing else, Go Set a Watchman’s very existence, and the hurt and outrage people feel at the idea that their beloved hero could be so deeply flawed has made us all Scout once again.

Random Trivial Things

  • Trivia – For the Record, Accountants are Sexy
    For the record, Karin can't paint or play an instrument (so writes about both), has trouble following a recipe (ergo the food porn), and has little aptitude for hard science (even though smart is the new sexy). She does have a marginal talent for double-entry bookkeeping. All of this explains why Car Pool and Above Temptation feature super sexy accountants who love music and food.
