About me
I’m a media professional, wife, mother of two and compulsive reader. I have a doctorate in eighteenth-century literature – a tidbit I mention only to counterbalance the fact that I now have a blog about shopping.
My mom's dying wish was that I spend money on myself – so I'm doing it! Join me as I spend $1,000 per month for a year and see what I discover about women, shopping and self-worth.

Finding out what money buys.
What and Why
It was my mother’s dying wish that I spend money on myself – so I'm going to do it. For the next year, using money she left me, I'm going to spend $1,000 per month on fun things – clothes, travel, who knows? – and see if it changes my life.
As I honour my mom's wish — and write about it — I hope to start a conversation about how women feel about money, spending and self-worth.
