Culture: Our Fiction Addiction

While lunching with a friend the other day, I asked how she spent her spare time now that her kids are off to college, and she told me – she watched Real Housewives or other shows revolving around ‘pretend reality’. Naturally I nodded, and didn’t think much of it until later that day, when I realized that most of my friends do watch and obsess reality shows – which got me wondering why some of us are drawn to such television shows or topics online and off. In case you are wondering the same or just need to read something this Monday (insert your timezone) then consider the following to enlighten you: {here and here}  

A New Outlook…

As I’ve mentioned before, it’s been a struggle for me the past couple of months – trying to rationalize the changes in my life I never imagined possible. While I am doing my best to cope and mend, I decided Raw Silk and Saffron may not be the best place to pour out my feelings or emotions or whatever we go through when our hearts are broken. So, I am going to keep Raw Silk and Saffron all about the fun side of things and offer up this site which I’ve kept private until now, for all the other real-life topics in the raw, not sugar-coated, not diplomatic, just the real life facts and truth about – life, love  marriage and family. Hope to see you there. And if not, than glad you are here.
