I don’t know if I can keep up with all the recalls in the news today. It’s going to take me all day just to post the recall notices I received overnight. With all the food and children’s toys recalls lately, I am surprised more people aren’t squawking. At least women’s fashion jewelry hasn’t been the focus of any recalls. That will make the women happy.
