Hi there. This post was made possible by Black & Decker—they sent me a 36V lawn mower to chase around my yard after participating in the #KICKGAS blogger event in …
... although, what's there to be a pro about when you're picnicking? We're picnic lovers. After all, we spend our days hunting beach glass, getting manicures and pedicures by trudging through …
