My Kobo Love Affair & A Fond Farewell To Actual Books

When e-readers first came out, I was heavily against having one.  I love reading and often read two books a week (I know, you can tell I don’t have children when I have time to read).  Christmas was coming up and my boyfriend asked would I like one because I kill forests with my reading […]

Harry’s (Shaving Items) Now In Canada

Last year a new company called Harry’s opened up and advertised a new referral special to get new customers interested.  Since one of the founders is Jeff Raider of Warby Parker, it seemed legitimate and many of us took part to be disappointed when shipping issues meant they could not yet include Canada.  Flash forward […]
