Gallon Smashing

Yes, I could sit here all day long and debate whether or not this is criminal, and for the record, I do not condone or support this in any way, but all I can do is laugh until I cry.  The expressions of the bystanders are priceless!  The “squeaky shoes” part is where I absolutely [...]

Do y’all remember my hunt for those nude ballet flats that practically consumed all of my shopping energy a couple of years ago, only I never thought I would find them because every pair I wanted was insanely expensive?  But then I found them and all was right with my world?
