By //  by Robin Edwards

    If girls rule the world then why are they being so stupid? Case in point; the latest party trend CEOs and Office Hoes.

Traditional gift options range from flowers to jars of ingredients for delicious desserts to candles, and these are all welcome gifts, but since this is summer and the living is easy… let’s not make our hostesses actually do anything and give them something they can enjoy right out of the box.
