My inbox has been filled with messages like that for the past couple of months. I admit, I did leave you guys kind of stranded with no real reason why and for that I apologize :( It was never my intention to take a break it just happened...I stopped typing, stopped caring for "hair talk" and videos.

All tied up! On a random and somewhat wasteful trip to Marshall's I came across this cute scarf under a pile of clearance junk.
