Close your eyes, my little one, Rest your weary mind, Drift away on clouds of dreams, Leave this day behind.

I already know what it says to me, like "Clean me" and "You know, I’m not a science lab" and "Yes, the light does go out when you shut my door" but I was surprised how insightful it really was. What Your Fridge Says About … Continue reading
