Behold! Bad Date Bingo!

Behold! Bad Date Bingo!

Let’s pause from remembering that Mary Kate Olsen was once young and contemplate the worst kind of date. Which square is your favorite? Or rather, most indicative of the worst thing a person can do on a date? I have never been bothered by chapped lips, and complaining about hipsters is my hobby, so that just sounds like fun, but someone running even fifteen minutes late makes me feel like I’m going to go ballistic (why don’t they plan better? Why?) What about you? Please mark your square immediately. – Shmitten Kitten More »

Should You Kiss in Front of Your Children?

Should You Kiss in Front of Your Children?

My daughter has hit the stage where she wants everything to be a family. She must have three of everything, so there can be a mommy, daddy and baby. A family of stuffed teddy bears, a family of hearts she drew. It’s a little like Goldilocks, there should always be three in descending size. She’s even a little peeved with Disney movies lately because they rarely have a mother and a father. Perhaps most telling, since Brenna is an only child, if there is another sibling, she refers to them as “friend.” So her dollhouse has Mommy, Daddy, Baby and Friend, and she plays with them all the time.

Why Hickeys Are Awesome

Why Hickeys Are Awesome

Yesterday, my colleague Jessica Pauline Ogilvie wrote a post about why you should ignore sex advice from women’s magazines and instead just listen to your partner and do stuff that feels good. While I’m totally on board with that, the piece went on an interesting tangent in the comment thread about hickeys. Mostly about covering them up, that is. But you know what? I love hickeys. No, let me be clear: I fucking love hickeys. More »
