    One for the girls…

    I live in a male-dominated household. Three sons, one husband, one dog. It’s like total bloke city here. The only splash of pink in an all-blue landscape comes from me. Sometimes it feels like I’m trapped in one of those American frat houses; the noise level is loud, toilet humour rules, household cleaning (by them) is virtually non-existent and the television is permanently […]
