My lovelies, I'm curious: Where do you live? Which state, country?We grew up in Michigan, and then I moved to New York after college--into a crumbling apartment with lots of mice! (And now that I've been here for a whopping ten years, I'm working on a little guide to New York that I'm really excited to share soon.:)
