So! In the Lazy Girl’s Guide to Being Pretty, we discussed how you can look hot without moving too much or putting on pants without elastic waistbands. Because we’re lazy. Now, we’re going to tackle something everyone, but especially lazy people, absolutely dread: moving.
I’ve moved at least ten times in ten years. God, it could even be more; I’m too lazy to count. Some of these moves have been cross-country; some have been cross-city. It doesn’t really matter– it’s all a hell of sweat, swearing, and lifting or carrying heavy things. I have, however, discovered along the way, a few tips to help you move, and a few more tips to help those of us who keep getting evicted having to relocate. Continue reading

One of my absolute favorite things to order in our local “greek style family restaurant” is called “The Gypsy Steak.”
It’s served in a ceramic skillet, and it has a layer of hash browns, then veggies, then steak, then eggs, then cheese. Throw some ketchup and hot sauce on there and it’s all good in the neighborhood.

GIN!! Yes! Gin on a warm day is the best.
