When food has replaced sex in your relationship, it’s pretty much over.

Favorite foods are not a […]
As Sarah Silverman once said, “A couple of nights ago I was licking jelly off my boyfriend’s penis. And I thought, ‘Oh my God, I’m turning into my mother!” Yes, we have all raided the fridge during a romp in the sack with our boo — and if we didn’t know any better, Tide detergent […]
