And by great I mean it tastes amazing – so for a mouthwash that is, well, refreshing. I’m all for mouthwash(ing), partly because it keeps your dental bill somewhat manageable, but mostly because …

A Perfectly Murderous Routine

Anybody that knows me knows I have a thing for great apartments, Gwyneth Paltrow and bath-time routines. All three glorious things miraculously converge in A Perfect Murder – aka the perfect movie.
