This could just be me being my normal jackass self. Or maybe I'm actually onto something here. Either way, I am curious what the #ladies of #SG think about this idea.

BACKGROUND:

I am going on #vacation in a few weeks to the beautiful, sun-spoiled #Madeira, #Portugal. The Canary Islands (Or Azores Islands, or... whatever) are just screaming my name! #Giggity In view of the...
