Today
is American Business Women’s Day, marking the 1949 founding of the American Business Women's Association but it feels much more fitting that the day was first recognized in 1983. It has that certain shoulder pad I can bring home the bacon fry it up in a pan feel to it. Peel those hose off and unwind with a Riunite on ice, ladies. That’s nice.
