Why the Ampersand?

Rachel and I complete each other. Not in a weird, crazy cat lady way. In fact, we both hate cats and our dogs combined weigh more than like, all of the season 6 contestants of America's Next Top Model. On paper, we shouldn't work. Rach likes fruit for dessert. She is crafty and has been in a relationship longer than Kate Middleton and the future king of England. She always looks perfect and could write a book on etiquette. I, on the other hand, still wonder which side of the plate the fork goes on when you set the table (The left, right? Eek!) and convince myself that eating large amounts of dark chocolate is totally OK because it's heart healthy (right?). Rachel goes to The University of Alabama and I go to The University of Tennessee which makes us conference rivals. See? We shouldn't work. But we do, and it's the best friendship I've ever had (I think she feels the same.)
We can't wait to share everything we love with anyone who wants to listen and this blog will be the fruition of hours on Skype just dying over the new shade of this or gushing over how much we loved eating that. And, if you love discussing which polish brand has the best glitter consistency (Butter London, obviously) or what kind of chocolate goes best in chocolate chip cookies (jury's still out) you ought to join right in.
Happy Reading,
Lauren
