Whenever I visit my parents, I make sure to visit Target before returning to stupid target-less NYC. I mean, targets exist here, but not in the wonderful, stocked, convenient glory of the suburbs. Last weekend, my mom bought me this great lime/mustard green sweater dress with a drawstring. I secretly suspect that my mom bought […]

June 9th, 2008 · 6 Comments
