Our mothers and grandmothers often received fine china sets, or porcelain dishes, for their weddings. Some of us have inherited these at this point. Do we use them? When? Why?

38 min - Jewelry and all the things it means
Of all our closets and drawers, our jewelry drawer, or box, might be the most special. Especially for women, jewelry tends to be connected to important events, inherited as family heirlooms, or tied to sentiment and memories. But what about that $5 plastic bobble you still have? Tune in to find out whether Jacki, Lana and Courtney still fit into their baby bracelets, and more.

We all have make up in our bathroom drawers we most definitely, absolutely, should not still have. Have you ever made it to the end of a lipstick? Tune in to hear about the high school eye shadow we still use (ewww) and other crazy make up stories.

41 min - Bag Baggage
Purses are an item of deep devotion for some. For others, they’re purely functional. They come in so many shapes, sizes, colours and prices that they’re practically art, at this point. Tune in to hear about three particular bags our hosts just can’t seem to get rid of.
