I posted Sofia's audition video on a dedicated page in case Vimeo blocks it, click on the image below to access it.

Amazon Subscribe and Save just tried to increase the price of one item I purchase by 33%, that seems wild. Let's pause for a moment... we are talking about toilet paper here, and they tried to increase my price by 33%. That is insane and shocking.

It's more disturbing the fact that the same item is for sales for significantly LESS than the new Subscribe and Save price that Amazon is trying to charge me. I simply cancelled the subscription and re-joined it to avoid to price jump.

This seems pretty sneaky. I have a bad feeling that Amazon is aggressively increasing some of these item subscriptions behind the scenes far more than warranted, and taking advantage of customers because of the convenience factor. This is not great and sad to see.

Nicole finished decorating the outside of the house last weekend, looks beautiful with the lights. So many neighbors stopped by to say they love it. Her alter ego is definitely an interior/exterior decorator.

Every year around this time I like to display my HABA wooden Nativity set. Is super simple and stylized, with solid, sturdy, beechwood pieces, made in Germany. I think looks cool and captures de spirit of the Holidays.
