Topless with Baby: Dedicated to the fight against Breast Cancer

I love the name of maternity lines because a good majority of them remind me of porn, like HotMilk, Fierce Mama, and Boobs. At what feels like the most unattractive point in a woman’s journey into motherhood the retail world like to remind you of how you got there. Truthfully, I need a sense of [...]

The Greed of Green

The blog entitled the Greed of Green has been taken down because of a Cease and Desist Letter from lawyers representing E. Sota (Riverside Development) and Diana Lynn (One80 Real Estate). It was never my intent to cause “defamation per se”. My husband and I bought a home from Ernie and Diana. It is lawful [...]

My 9-11: How I changed my life on that day
