It never worked. :)Kristen M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02335598194501733541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-754919688510890076.post-39097966184962747422013-01-22T21:31:01.192-08:002013-01-22T21:31:01.192-08:00I had only seen really positive reviews so I felt ...I had only seen really positive reviews so I felt bad putting up something less than glowing. I'm glad to know that I wasn't the only one who didn't super lurve it though. And, really, there isn't any reason to not read this one.
