This week we're talking about skincare! What we've learned about making a routine in your 30s, why Victoria is drinking a decaf latte, the joy of Pizza and olives, and talk about romance novels and Jeffe Kennedy's Dark Wizard. !

Dark Wizard is one of my top reads ever. It will always have a place on my favorites shelf. I was drawn deeper and deeper into the story with each succulent twist. Each savory turn. Jeffe writes with stunning beauty and clarity, and I can't even hate her for it. I've tried. Oh, how I've tried. She's just that good. Damn it. You know what? I take it all back. Fuck you, Jeffe Kennedy, if that's even your real name. I hate you so bad. So, so bad. Also, when is the next book coming out? Not that I'm going to read it. You know why? Because I hate you. So bad.
