It’s an American Whirl

My daughter “Sistafoo” is not a good girl, not in the classic sense of the word. Her greatest girly-girl deficit has been her failure to adopt all things Mattel – including that busty icon Barbie.
Instead, Sistafoo prefers the recycle bin, an obsession with a game called Minecraft, the boob...
Crack some bubbly, no matter the season
