This post brought to you by apartments.com. All opinions are 100% mine. I remember trying to find an apartment 15 years ago (gulp, has it been that long?) when we were building this house. Back then you had to make phone calls, set appointments with apartment managers, and drive all over town to find the [...]

I was given the awesome opportunity this month to do a review for DownEast Home and Clothing. If you are familiar with them, you understand why I was excited.

Do you send out Christmas cards or letters every year? We do. Except for last year, which was totally lame. This year I am trying to make up for it by sending out a really cool Christmas card. So when Minted contacted me about doing a review of their cards, I was intrigued. Then I [...]
