More than any of the other planners showcased on this American programme, I fell for Jung’s sophisticated no-fuss planning and flawless execution.

I am so very sad about the passing of Jane McGrath yesterday. I am so sad for her beautiful children and lovely husband and all of those who loved her. As a small token of our thoughts and love, we will donate 20% of all sales today at Pink Frosting to Glenn and [...]
