The holidays are looming.
Some of you out there have already made your list, checked it twice, and bought gifts for all those who have been naughty and nice. There are gals who have their holiday meals planned with grocery lists at the ready. Others have already began creating a magnificent Pinterest centerpiece with hopes that guests will talk about it for centuries to come.

Things have changed a bit since I was a little girl.

Yes, I was a child of the ’80s.
