This Week’s Picks: March 17, 2013

By: Gabriela Yareliz Hello dear friends! Tomorrow, the adventure begins. I have every minute of my time mapped out because Mondays are terrible.

Hurricane Sandy

By: Gabriela Yareliz So… this is me. Trying to finish off as much frozen food as I can before Hurricane Sandy hits. They are closing the mass transit system down, so there will be no transportation, hence no school. (They still haven’t officially announced it, but I will do it for them.) So I amContinue reading “Hurricane Sandy”
