Since I’m (still) in Nashville, I asked Amy Dix of Housewife Hacks if she would write a guest post for me, and to my delight she agreed. When I first ran across Amy and Housewife Hacks, I was smitten with a) her super-cool retro logo and b) her fabulous tips on saving money (She is truly “thriftilicious!”).

Ummm…yeaaaaahhhh…
I wanted to run away screaming, not just because I wasn’t in the mood to have the “birds and the bees” discussion but also because the word “boner” is such a gross word, when it’s coming out of the mouth of one of the characters in Porky’s and especially when it’s coming from …
